BeBe & CeCe Winans ~ Addictive Love {Extended Version}

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Always loved this song, but I prefer the original version or the radio edit. The only song I love more by this duo is "It's O.K." from the same album.

LOVE this version!music I've always preferred this over the album version. This version is also a bonus track on the "A Different Light" CD.

Interesting when the song first came out, it was in heavy rotation on R&B radio. I had no idea it was a religious song until a woman I worked with told me she liked the song but, because she was a Jehovah Witness, she wasn't supposed to be listening to religious songs. She told me the word "Christ" is used in the the song. I had no idea what she was talking about until I went home and read the lyrics to the song. BeBe does indeed use the word "Christ" but he slurs the word to the point where it's almost unrecognizable.
