I can hear LeLee clear as day. Usually can’t hear hear her on the actual track and i hate that because she actually has a nice blend between coko and taj. But Taj sung from her pinky toe on that bridge!!!!
Lee Lee is the bottom note. Contralto (on this song on The Bridge) and sometimes tenor on other songs. She comes in clearly on the bridge on the “eww eww ewwww” at the 2:30 mark. Taj is singing the bridge, is singing the high note, and Lee Lee is singing the lowest note.
The male voice is actually singer Joe. He sings the backing vocals, ad-libs, and also arranged the vocals. Pharrell, while a talented writer and producer, could only dream of doing those vocals runs! Lol

It’s not. His name is Rome who had a minor hit in 96. It was recorded as an initial duet but ultimately was scrapped and this is the final version. It’s on UA-cam somewhere, I’ve heard it 3 years ago.
@@chrisjohnson-nq2ko Actually Tammy Lucas (Neptunes Musical Mother and Teddy Riley protege) wrote this along with Neptunes *Joe comes in at the end ...Check out Black Street "Tonight's the Night" ... that's Chad on the horns of that song as well🤯 They had a musical team that consisted of Tammy, Pharrell, Chad, and Joe believe it or not👀another gem is that is Pharell sayin "S,S, Double, Double, U, Double, V(SWV)" on the "Right Here" song
@@chrisjohnson-nq2ko Pharrell wrote and produced this but that's definitely him in the background clear as day singing "free your thoughts and watch them fly" at 3:30
3:11 - 3:13 “Baby won’t you use your heart!” Can someone let me know if that’s Taj? If it is it’s only something she was able to do in the studio, because she never does it live (if that’s her vocals). Wait a min I heard the very end for the first time. Who is that singing sound like a male voice. I’m Shook! Lol!
LeLee isn’t singing on this song. It’s Coko, Taj, and Pharell on the chorus, Coko on versus, Taj on bridge, and Joe on adlibs. It’s not as uncommon as one would think. All groups record songs that not all the members are on. There’s even songs on Release Some Tension that Coko doesn’t sing on and she’s the lead singer of the group and is on 99% of their songs.
The only member on the backgrounds here is Coko, the other vocals are by Joe and Pharrell. LeeLee don't sing a note on this and Taj only does the bridge, but one line of that is actually Joe and not her.
I can hear LeLee clear as day. Usually can’t hear hear her on the actual track and i hate that because she actually has a nice blend between coko and taj. But Taj sung from her pinky toe on that bridge!!!!
Can you point out LeLee in the background
Where is lelee?
I’m listening for her specifically
Where is Leelee seriously? From a tenor point of view
Lee Lee is the bottom note. Contralto (on this song on The Bridge) and sometimes tenor on other songs. She comes in clearly on the bridge on the “eww eww ewwww” at the 2:30 mark. Taj is singing the bridge, is singing the high note, and Lee Lee is singing the lowest note.
This is my fave of all their catalog. To hear all the true harmonies is SUPERB! Taj did her thing on this here one❣
Taj’s tone on this track truly shines❤❤
CHILLLLEEEEE SHE GIVES ME CHILLS TIL THIS DAY!
to hear her kick into overdrive speak volumes
The male voice is actually singer Joe. He sings the backing vocals, ad-libs, and also arranged the vocals. Pharrell, while a talented writer and producer, could only dream of doing those vocals runs! Lol
I think I heard Joe and Pharrell at one point lol it sounds like Pharrell on the chorus
@@marleymarsss Nope. That is Pharrell on the chorus.
RoyalBlu yeah I listened for like a hour, that’s definitely Pharrell on the hook and Joe on the adlibs at the end
Sigh! Here we go again. That is not Pharrell's vocals! Not his tone whatsoever. All the male vocals are Joe!
@@anjelheaven People are crazy, saying you think those vocals belong to pharrell is like hearing whitney Houston and crediting the vocals to madonna.
I can listen to Coko sing all day
I love Taji's voice and I love her background vocals. It complements Coko's voice well.
That’s why Taj always lead the harmonies and back her up
@@Soulofamoon lead harmonies?
Taj has no backgrounds on this. It's just Coko, Joe and Pharrell. The other two aren't on it.
Yes
@@Right_Direction_yes they r 😂 u can hear Taj all In it what r u tlkn bout?
Joe is a #VocalGiant 🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶
Craziest underappreciated "Writing Team" in history of Music Tammy Lucas, Pharrell, Chad, and Joe ... check out Blackstreet "Tonights the Night"
Taj WOWWWWWWWW
Taj walked on this track.
SWV is one of my favorite girl groups of all time! I really would like to see them in concert.
2:27 harmonies 😍😍
Just when i thought my favorite song couldnt get any better...theres this♥️
They definitely shoulda let the other girls sing more. All 3 of them can sing! I loved Taj’s verse
Yes
that bassline on "free your thoughts" at 3:06 !!!!!!!!!
[Verse 1: Coko]
Alone
You and I intertwine
Refreshing conversation for the mind
As we stare
We both seek and hope to find
Real love purified
[Chorus: SWV & Coko]
Use your heart and not your eyes
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time
(Yeah, yeah)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes
(Baby)
[Verse 2: Coko & SWV]
I sigh as I watch you sleeping there (Sleeping there)
So easily I did things I'd never dare (Never dare)
I say to myself, "I'm glad that we share
Real love purified", oh
[Chorus: SWV & Coko]
Use your heart and not your eyes
(Use your heart and not your eyes, baby)
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
(If you got time then I got time)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Post-Chorus: SWV]
Use your heart
[Verse 3: Coko & SWV]
My goodness, how it seems like yesterday (Yesterday)
She crossed you hurt you in the strongest way (Strongest way)
You've hurt so long, reward come to those who cry
Real love purified
[Bridge: Taj]
Just a second
I look at my watch's dial
And you love me, pampered me like a child
As we lay, I close my eyes and I smile
At your real love purified
[Chorus: SWV, Taj, Coko]
Use your heart and not your eyes
(Oh, baby)
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
(If you got the time, then I got the time)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
(Baby, won't you use your heart)
Use your heart and not your eyes (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Use your heart and not your eyes (Use your heart, baby)
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
(So that they can see what is destiny for you)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly (Ooh baby)
Use your heart and not your eyes (Use your heart)
Use your heart and not your eyes
(Relax and ride, relax and ride)
Baby, just relax and ride (Relax and ride)
If you got time then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
(Oh yeah, use your heart)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
(Watch them fly)
Use your heart and not your eyes
Thanks James! 🥰
"watch them fly" I use to think that was Taj but that's Joe
U can tell when Taj is singing she has jazzy raspy alto
It’s truly beautiful
It's Joe and Taj actually
This is chilling!!! 🥶🥶🥶🔥🔥🔥

This group is so amazingly awesome, so beautiful and outwardly talented ❤️❤️🔥🔥⭐️⭐️⭐️
That’s def Pharrell on the backgrounds. Especially since he produced the track. And that’s Joe coming in towards the end.
Exactly
that’s not pharrell it’s joe. and pharrell didn’t write shit. tammy lucas wrote this lol. “most people don’t know shit about boxing” 😂😂😂
@@cookedeggswho said he wrote it???? Read the comment again. The neptunes most certainly produced the beat. “Most people don’t know…”
@@AyeSulethey absolutely produced the beat
Ooh this is an extended vocal. That staccato phrasing Coko does at then she did in a few live performances
Best pic
The 3 of them are magic just like how En Vogue are (the original members)
This is absolutely amazing!🔥🔥🔥❤💯
I love this!
The words are so deep...the universe sent this to me I'm so thankful 👍🏾👏🏿
Me Too
Simply amazing.
I didn't realize that was Joe omg
It’s not. His name is Rome who had a minor hit in 96. It was recorded as an initial duet but ultimately was scrapped and this is the final version. It’s on UA-cam somewhere, I’ve heard it 3 years ago.
Wow…all I can say is thank you. I’m officially an OG lol! #FollowThaFro
Taj 🥰
I always wondered if that was Joe. I know for a fact now 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My girls about to kill this versus

He's on right here (human nature) not this song. He the producer only here.

Lose Control by Silk is a big omission here!
What version of the song has 4:07 on?
LeLee isn’t singing on this song. It’s Coko, Taj, and Pharell on the chorus, Coko on versus, Taj on bridge, and Joe on adlibs.
