Anyone else here a big fan of SWV? I know someone who got to see them at House Of Blues in New York this decade, and I'm forever jealous! | |

Huge fan!
This was my introduction to their music...
And even though its an underrated track, I loved this Missy Elliot written piece, back when she was a hot commodity as a song writer...
Coko's voice is extremely sexy. I remember hearing the original version by Missy long time ago, loved it as well (very underrated singer btw). | |

Been a fan since the beginning (the original "Right Here"). Cinny, you definitely need the "Weak" single because the radio edit has drastically improved lead vocals. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

I'm a 90s baby and I love them much more than the other girl groups of that time. En Vogue is definitely second. I'm so happy they got back together for I Missed Us and I can't wait for their new reality show coming later in the fall. | |

YES!! Things like that.
I have been noticing different overdubs and instruments on the video mixes. | |

I might watch their show to see what's going on with them. They definitely had some jams. | |

I liked them, but preferred Jade.
Better voices and harmonies, and nicer to look at. | |

- - I loved their debut joint! I don't recall a bad song on there. I think I remember it being pretty much flawless for a new group and damn were these girls horny as hell! I loved it. I remember them having the image of a female version of Bell Biv Devoe (BBD). Coco voice was always distinctive. Not just with the group but with everyone else on the scene at the time. You knew it was her whenever you heard her. - If I remember right, my favorite joint was the original "Anything" at the end of the tape. I think it was like a little interlude or something but I would rewind the hell out of that part because I loved the production, the harmonies and the overall mood of it. | |

Funny that you've mentioned the "horny as hell" point. I think they presented the flipside of the Clark Sisters meaning they're heavily influenced by them, but their stuff on the other hand wasn't so, um, sanctified | |

Wow. I never made a connection to the Clark Sisters and SWV. Interesting. | |

Their Christmas album is good though. They basically chose all the same songs as the Jackson 5 Christmas album. | |

Speaking of which, I like this version from them...
And my dear friend, orger Harlepolis once sent me a playlist that has this song (from the same soundtrack).... | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
I love them - even their last single Co-sign was ok. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Where did Harlepolis go? She got my playlist in May, and then I didn't make another one until August. Somewhere in between time, her profile was deleted. | |

I miss her so much! As a matter of fact, I joined this site just for her. Grrr!
We said goodbye last June. She no longer works in Doha - where I'm from - she's trying to sort herself out for her grad school course, which she will start in East Bay university next winter. Busy little bee.
I've been trying to persuade her to have a FB account, but the girl is too lazy she'll probably neglect it the minute she makes one

SoulAlive said: so,what are they doing now? Are they still together,doing shows? Yes they were doing a 90's tour this summer with Blackstreet, Jodeci, etc. 3 years ago they came to my city on the Soul Food Festival with After 7, Confunkshun,Cameo,BarKays,Dazz Band and were late as hell and had to rush through a 4 song set just before Cameo came on.
