I was listening to a couple of these song intros and I can't help but say I've been floored. Nobody can't do things like these anymore.

I want you to just stop whatever you're doin. I want you to just stop. I wanna rap to you....ooooh ooooh oooh aahhh..... This song is one of those reasons why EWF aint never been the same since Maurice stopped touring. It's not that they can't still play, it's not that Phllip Bailey can't take over, it's just that all the songs MW sang lead on don't sound right with anyone else singin 'em. And vice versa if Phllip couldn't tour or left the band.

Too bad we can't post Eye Hate U...

"Close your eyes, Imma cover your azz wit dis sheet"

There is no way EWF can ever get back to stuff like this now. Period.
