 They also did a cover of "If I Was UR Girlfriend" on 'CrazySexyCool'...great cover too.Prince Rogers Nelson

Crazysexycool was my first CD ever that belonged to me. If I had anything before that, it was on record or on cassette. The CD's we did have at the time were greatest hits compilations and recent hits my family owned.
Definitely a classic, I loved TLC so much back in the day. | |

It kind of reminds me we're all getting old when it seemed like just yesterday that TLC looked like little babies and I was enjoying them as a preteen. All the r&b/hip hop artists I liked as a teenager are approaching 40. I know that's not really old, but it reminds me that I'm approaching 30 in several years. | |

Sorry, I was referencing junebug's mention of Waterfalls.Wait, Paul McCartney should have got writing credit now? I thought Wendy And Lisa still got credit for having (almost) the same title. | |

I thought Wendy And Lisa still got credit for having (almost) the same title. I dunno. It was more of a question than a statement. He has a song Waterfalls that starts with almost the exact same phrase as the chorus. Musically, not similar at all. | |
