I used to dig Babyface a long time ago. What was that song? "When will I see you again"? I think he's producing some Fall Out Boy tracks.

'A Love Story' is the album that Babyface was working on throughout most of 2003.It was planned as the follow-up to his 2001 album 'Face 2 Face'.In early 2004,it looked as if 'Love Story' was finally ready for release.A single was released,"The Loneliness",and the video was even sent out to video channels.The album was scheduled to be released on March 23,2004.However,the project was abruptly cancelled for some reason or another.Either Babyface wasn't totally satisfied with it,or his record label (Arista) refused to release it.Whatever the case,Face went back into the studio and recorded several new tunes,came up with a different tracklist,changed the album title to 'Grown And Sexy' and finally released it in 2005.Many fans think that 'Love Story' (which leaked a long time ago) is the superior album.Here's the original 'Love Story' album cover and tracklist:

God Must Love You
Red Dress
Getting 2 Know U
Makin' Love
Love Song
Sentimental Reasons
The Loneliness
Wish That I Could Tell You
Together Forever
Still My Boo
I Promise

speaking of Babyface,I just bought a remastered version of his 1989 album 'Tender Lovers',his masterpiece."Whip Appeal" is the ultimate slow jam.

I remember back in '04 thats all his website was advertisin is this album...

its actually pretty damn solid after a few listens.. the first two tracks are great.

I really dug Face2Face.. just had a good energy to it.. and it didn't have too much of the cliche r&b sound.. he was venturin out a bit.


cool

I didn't like 'Face 2 Face'.The last truly great Babyface album was 'For The Cool In You',imo.
