I know this was not their biggest hit, but I still like this song.

I'm the first one, YAH! Ha ha. No, really I love this song. I would say it is my favorite SWV song. I this CD single out back in 1996.(Damn, I'm hella old). Pharell Williams produced this song, but I did not have any idea who he was until about five years later. The ladies' voices sound very mature on this song and them harmonies are tight. Also, the most appealing thing about the song was that it had (and still has) a dreamlike quality to it.

CLASSIC!

My favorite SWV jam! I really think by the time they came out with this album and single, they were more developed and mature with their image and sound.

I like it too.

Like I said earlier, SWV had some good, nah, great songs.

It wasn't their biggest hit but it's my personal favorite from them Rain is a close second

This takes me back to grade 8, I remember spending all my allowance on the New Beginning CD.

probably my fav swv song. my top 3 are this, "ur always on my mind", and "right here (human nature)".

I love it's really all about you on the CD, there is something so Jackson 5 about it.

This is a nice song..it showed the group's maturity.

This is when I started paying attention to The Neptunes. Y'all know they produced this?

I wasn't a huge SWV fan but this is my favorite track by them.
It's smooth and laid back. It was a nice follow up to the
skanky You're the one for me.

The lyrics WERE very skank-licious, weren't they?

Everyone says that USE YOUR HEART wasnt a hit..so what did it do on the charts? I know it tanked pop, but it had to be top ten r&b.. I remember hearing it a lot on BET and r&b radio

Cinnie said:

Yep, no the Neptunes produced this track.AT the time it was released however, I didn't know, hell I didn't know they existed. I didn't know of them until "Shake Yo Ass" about 4 years later. I did know the songs SuperThug and Lookin' At Me and I Hate You (So Much Right Noe) but didn't know those cats yet.

# 22 Pop / # 6 RnB, not a bad follow up.

It was a BIG R&B hit.

^ yeah I remember that too. I cant believe it was half my life ago.

Love this group, love this album, love this JAM! Man those were the days...

I liked this cut we actually got to hear Taj's voice which IMO wasn't all that bad...

boriquateddy said:

Taj wasn't bad as a singer at all. I really liked the song "It All About U" from the same album. She sang lead on most it.

"Use Your Heart" was SWV's 7th-consecutive top-10 R&B hit, reaching #6 in 1996. After their lead single "Right Here" peaked at #16, they hit big with "I'm So Into You" (#2), "Weak" (#1), "Right Here/Human Nature"/"Downtown" (#1), "You're Always On My Mind" (#8), "Anything" (#4), and "You're the One" (#1). Lack of a physical single helped kill "It's All About U" and "Can We" (my favorite), but they bounced back with "Someone" (#5) and "Rain" (#7).

Timmy84 said:

Lol!! I was in this type of situation that summer before this song hit, my girl's so called friend came at me like those SWV lyrics, I was only 17 at the time and her so called friend looks wise was bangin' so like a dummy I took the bait.....

Abdul said:

Damn, lol. I know your girl was probably pissed when she found out.

Timmy84 said:

Yep she was very pissed Timmy, it took till the end of the next school year to even get her to talk to me at all again, and her and the "Friend" actually got in a fist fight over it. We're actually cool again, I just hung out with her and some old H.S. friends of mine on my B-Day May 17th.

Abdul said:

Haha, glad everything turned out okay considering.

Man, this brings me back. Yeah, this was SWV's best song.

LittleBLUECorvette said:

Let's not forget that they also co-produced, "Rump Shaker", with Teddy.

shorttrini said:

They certainly weren't on my producer radar then. Back then I thought that was all Teddy Riley behind "Rump Shaker".

Understandably so. It sounds way different from the digital style that would make them blow up.
