    Ah the 90’s. I was born in 83’ in NYC and I’m extremely lucky to have witnessed the greatest era of entertainment. From the timeless films and tv shows that we’re made, to the timeless Hip-Hop music that can never get old no matter how many years go by. It really was a special era where we were getting hit with timeless material from all different angles and we were blessed to be around it. You’d have to have been around to know what we’re talking about. There really isn’t ever going to be another era like the 90s. There is a reason Hip-Hop from that era gets so much praise, and it’s not a nostalgia thing either. Everything was clicking on all cylinders creatively from everywhere. And this song right here is one of the highlights of that era. Great amazing classic record from LL Cool J and Boyz II Men, and a wonderful beat by the Trackmasters. Classic material right here folks. Enjoy it !!!

      Definitely an idea they've created true love is of children parents and grandparents ie sex the act causes a chemical brain reaction n most times after the act that feeling is that of a narcotic 😆😉😵🙊

    The 80s and 90s will NEVER be matched when it comes to music and movies, and honestly life in general, born May of 81 i was lucky enough to see and remember most of the 80s and every bit of the 90s, and this song was my jam when it came out cause it just so happened that i was crushing hard on a girl at the time, i would play this shit over n over, lol, ahhh to be young again..

    I can't help but think about Video Soul back in the 90s when this song would be #1 on the countdown. So happy to see LL and my Boyz in the #1 spot.

      That verse is fire! ;)
      ''I gotta take you from your man, that's my mission! If his love is real, he gotta handle competition!
      You only knew him 5 months, beside he drinks too much and smokes too many blunts!
      And I've been working out everyday thinking about you, looking at my own eyes in the rearview!
      Getting flashbacks of our eye contact, wish I could lay on your stomach and caress you back!
      I would hold you in my arms and ease your feels!
      I can't believe it, I hadn't a crush in years!''
      Love that whole part! ;)
