Terry had a minor hit with "Wherever You Are".

I'm sure u know of Dawn's "success" with Lucy Pearl.

I remember right before Dawn's solo album was released,she did an interview with Vibe.She was gloating at the fact that EnVogue's recent album (recorded without her) was a flop.Karma has a way of catching up to people.Her own solo album was released and went absolutely nowhere lol

Rhona Bennett was also a member of En Vogue for a while. She recorded a solo album for Sony in the 90s. She was also on the Jamie Foxx Show.

That's true and i loved Dawn like crazy. I understand Dawn didn't like the record

deal they had but she shouldn't have flipped out on her girls like that.

This funk is a serious joint

I don't think any of them really liked their deal. I remember hearing an interview with Dawn when she stated that she was still driving a Ford Escort while she had number one hits on the charts.

She's mad sexy. When they first hit the scene, her eyes and smile used to put me in

a trance.

nod Oh yes!

My favs are and always will be:

Hold On

Free Your Mind

Give It Up Turn It Loose

Lies

Don't Go love

You Don't Have to Worry

My Lovin' (You're never gonna get it)

Whatever

Runaway Love

And I loved their remake of "Giving Him Something He Can Feel" mostly because of the video. Even though it was geared towards making the men drool, the actual men they used in the video made me drool and I always wished I was one of them singing up there in a sexy red dress showing off my curves nod

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

nod

Despite it's lack of success sales wise, it was still a darn good cd.

My favortie track was the second Still in Love. It sounds like vintage

EnVogue. I also liked the ballad I Don't Know Why. I remember sending

Dawn an email and much to my surprise she emailed me back thanking

me personally for her support and wondering if we were related since

we have the same last name. I said god i hope not. I still have fantasies to fulfill. lol

How old are you? I don't mean specifically but are you in your teens, 20's or 30's?

Every EnVogue fan knows that after releasing the single "Don't Let Go", Dawn went solo and the groups ensuing album "V3" didn't sound the same with three voices. Terry went solo after that.

Needless to say they figured out they wouldn't be successful without each other so they got back together recently. If Boys II Men could do the same maybe it could help them as well.

I`m in my 20s, and i`m from Norway. En Vogue wasn`t that big here i think.

Terry was the first to do a solo project in 95. Then "Don't Let Go" came out on the "Set It Off" soundtrack...then Dawn left.

Boyz II Men never really broke up. Mike left the group for health reasons. The other 3 are still going and making music....mostly remake albums....but still going.
