"Romantic": #1 R&B, #1 Pop
"Superwoman": #1 R&B, #8 Pop
"The Way You Love Me": #1 R&B, #7 Pop
"Secret Rendezvous": #6 Pop (not sure about R&B)
"The Way I Feel About You": #12 Pop (not sure about R&B)
"Facts Of Love": #27 Pop (This was Jeff Lorber featuring Karyn White)

I got all this info from my Billboard book of Top 40 hits. Unfortunately, it only mentions the R&B songs that hit #1 for each artist.

There is a separate Billboard book for R&B Top 40 hits that I would love to get one day.

I cannot wait for this. I hope they use single edits and different remixes. I love Karyn (though Terry Lewis has been quoted as calling her a gold digging bitch). The only song I don't recognize is "All I Do". Does anyone know what album this is from?

no.

She did have enough hits for a greatest hits package. 2 platinum albums and several gold singles are nothing to spit at. Maybe u guys don't remember much about her.

Oh I remember her alright. I'm 36 and was there when she dropped and I loved her but really I don't think she has enought for a best of album! You might as just release both albums she did and call them best of lol

Glad I shelled out X amount of dollars for the Japanese edition (bought it on Ebay so I don't think I paid all that much). I'm not even sure where that CD is anymore!

I just looked on Amazon and there is only one dealer selling the disc...for about $100! Maybe I should sell mine!

BTW, here is the singles chart info for Karyn according to Allmusic.com

Hey if Pebbles can have a greatest hits record...they Karyn White ought to have one! razz

I think it's cool since most of the albums are out of print with the exception of the fabulous debut...I played that record out!

The send album was great too!

Have them both on cassette.

peace

A double sided single!

razz razz

I recently went thru a bunch of old tapes and found Karyn White guest hosting Friday Night Videos..she was so cute...her 'Secret Rendezvous' video is the reason I could do the 'running man' so good! LA and Babyface where RED HOT 1989...with Bobby Brown, Karyn, not too mention one of Sheena Easton's best tracks 'The Lover In Me'...shooo do aaaaah!

Actually, Karyn White released three albums during her run -- her self-titled debut (1988), "Ritual of Love" (1991) and "Make Him Do Right" (1994).

Two of those songs listed -- "All I Do" and "Disconnected" -- I do not recognize. What are the odds of those being new and/or unreleased tracks?

Karyn White's "Secret Rendezvous" peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard R&B singles chart, and "The Way I Feel about You" peaked at No. 5. White's collaboration on "Facts of Love" peaked at No. 17.

Her duet with Babyface on her first album, "Love Saw It," went to No. 1 on the R&B Singles chart. "Do unto Me" from the "Ritual of Love" album went to No. 24, while "Hungah" (No. 18) and "Can I Stay with You" (No. 10) were from the "Make Him Do Right" album.

Pebbles acturally had 3 albums also. The first 2 did great, while the 3rd one didn't fare so well:

ALL I Do and Disconnected are unreleased tracks and i think she is DUE a greatest hits package, i would have liked more UNRELEASED stuff but hey.....I Saw her in concert and she SMOKED.....Very good performer. I wish she would come back and do some new stuff, I know there was a rumor that she was working on a new album i dont know how true that is THOUGH!

A double sided single!

razz razz

Do I need to lay the smack down? Nobody talks about fine-ass Pebbles. no no no! She deserved a hits album just so we could get some of the remixed single versions (like "Mercedes Boy" and "Are You Ready?").

OK, I guess I'll be the one to say it: Where's "Walking the Dog"?

I have all three of Karyn White's albums on CD, and that greatest hits package is a little different than one I would have put together. I always thought her second and third albums were hurt by some poor singles selection, so I would include those songs I enjoyed:

1.) "Facts of Love" (Jeff Lorber featuring Karyn White)

2.) "The Way You Love Me"

3.) "Superwoman"

4.) "Love Saw It" (duet with Babyface)

5.) "Secret Rendezvous" (remix version)

6.) "Romantic" (moonlight edit)

7.) "The Way I Feel about You" (feel it remix)

8.) "One Heart"

9.) "Do unto Me"

10.) "Hard to Say Goodbye"

11.) "Hungah"

12.) "Can I Stay with You"

13.) "Nobody But My Baby"

14.) "Make Him Do Right"

15.) "Romantic" (sexy mix)

censored That was the weakest song on "Ritual of Love," and leave it to Murphy's Law for that song to be released as a single. "One Heart" or "Hard to Say Goodbye" would have been better choices to follow up "Romantic" and "The Way I Feel about You."

That was my shyt "Walking The Dog"? Thats what i'm talking about, LOVED the video.....who says Karyn dont have enought songs to fill out a greatest hits. Also the song she had with Michael Jeffries "Not Thru Being With You" on his self titled debut and the little hidden gem of a duet with Randy (Jackson) & The Gypsys the song is called"Luv Thang" I LOVE THAT SONG!

lol I love "Walking the Dog"! She was smokin' hot in that video. I like to think of the song as a sort of answer to "La La La He He Hee."

Everything after number 9 I‛m clueless on. confused I think my all time favorite Karyn White song is Facts of Love even though that‛s really Jeff Lorber. I love that guitar intro.
