Album: For The Cool In You

Baby makin music, my favorite was Whip appeal.

My favorite from this CD was, "And Our Feelings"...Just love that song!

This was slick. This and If are my favorite ballads from babyface.

my mom bump it like it came out 2009

My favorite part is toward the end when he breaks it down, I especially love his word play:

"If you wanna go
I want you to know
Girl that I understand it
But I dont recommend it
cause I love you more
I know you cant ignore
That I will die for you
And lay down my life for you
Girl I wanna see
You standing next to me
Girl I apologize
For each and every lie
I want you to be
The only one for me
Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever"

And then he hits that note in the end like only Babyface can.

It's a beautiful song. I love that same part Lovesexy82 mentioned. There are other Face ballads I love more ("Where Will You Go," "When Can I See You," and "Whip Appeal" come to mind), but this one is still a modern-day classic.

While Face is known for his ballads, I also have been a big fan of his mid-tempo stuff. One of my favorites is "If We Try" along with "Lady, Lady," "Well Alright," "My Kinda Girl," and "Tender Lover."

l love babyface stuff hes so so good another great soulful artist

I LOVE THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG THO..... BEAUTIFUL INDEED

i HATE that song.....its too 'country' for me, "never keeping secrets" was cool though and so was "rock bottom" and the title track.

I miss true songwriting in R&B

Love me some 'Face. Takes me back to high school, flirting in the parking lot after the game, teasing muthafuckas trynta get in our draws cuz we had that Whip Appeal. :

Oooooh, Daddy!

I dont have the album this song comes off, but once LA Reid left him, his music got slow and samey. Still liked some of the cuts he did for other people, but the sound (or his sound) got monotamous and samey barring a few songs. He was everywhere and got more MOR.

The cut in question sounds like many other Babyface assosiated songs. Not surprising, but its still kinda average.

There's your first mistake right there. After Tender Lover, For the Cool in You is Face's best album. His solo work started to slip with the next album, The Day.

"Too country"? That must be a good thing then, cause country music is one of the most truest kinds of music there is...
