This is incredible. SWV is my favorite R&B group of all time, but somehow I prefer this version of the song because it's understated & subtle, with a grainy sound...this is what I want to hear entering a dimly lit wine bar ;)
@@GeminiJo Oh im in aggreance with you. Im just stating that the song still touches the deepest part of my soul and evokes emotions today like it did the very 1st time I heard it. This song def held up, and if released today it would be at the top of the charts...
I’ve always loved Tammy Lucas’ voice. I know she is a major player behind the scenes, but I wished she would’ve had a bigger singing career of her own.
Nice rare track! I liked how Tammy sings it, very different to Coko. Both version are great. Interesting fact you can hear Joe on the tail end of the background vocals of the SWV accapella version and very clearly at the end.
Wow!! I never knew the male's voice in this song was Joe. I have never heard this version before until now. I like it. I love me some SWV, but Tammy's voice is wonderful too. I like the smooth, jazzy sound.
hearing that for the first time, i wouldn’t mind a single, ep, album or something with demos/references. voice was so refreshing. nothing like 90s r&b.
Very talented and very selfless to think about other artists besides herself that's a gift just goes to show you that everything that you create has value Tammy doesn't have to get back in any studio if she don't want She can just relax and drop her demos and those demos will make money if that's what she wants to do I listen to this a couple of times and I really like it raised in the 90s I love this type of music as someone who does music myself it let me know that no matter what my age is I can release my stuff and you never know it may just do great things it doesn't always have to be something negative congratulations to Miss Lucas I wish her nothing but the best really pretty woman in all her pictures too❤️ P.s much respect to this channel you doing a great job brother I appreciate you showing love to black American Artist writers producers and background people who don't get their credit they do deserve flowers even if they don't want them
She’s an underrated writer ✍🏽 you can tell Tammy wrote a lot of Mary’s joints it’s all in Tammy’s voice when she sings all I hear is Mary 😂 but otherwise she deserves her Respect when it comes to behind the pen 🖊️ ✍🏽📝💜🌈💛
Very nice! I would love to hear more of Tammy's demos. She's super underrated. I'm a collector of demos/writer's demos so this is right up my alley. Tammy, if you happen to see this, please release as many demos as possible. There is a market for unreleased demos.
@@HalftimeChat Awesome news! I won't mention the name of the channel but, after I posted my comment here, I stumbled upon a UA-cam channel that may be her's. It has more of her demos on it. Do you know if that's really her channel?
I didn't know Pharrell was making music since the early 90s.Im a huge fan and I've been a fan since the Neptunes present the clones album.But my mind have matured to the point i desire to become an even bigger fan to listen all the music the Neptunes help make
Tammy has joints oh my goodness is it good to you was my joint without heavy D…I never heard the demo to Use your heart which is dopppeeee this is the blueprint I love it ❤❤❤❤❤
I was just talking about Tammy Lucas and the Neptunes…being Teddy Riley protégés the other day …Tammy sung the hook for “ Is It Good For You?” by Heavy D & The Boyz but Teddy Riley did a version of that instrumental with Tammy singing verses with that same hook…it appeared on the Juice music soundtrack…I knew that she was a well known studio session singer who toured with well known artists as background singer just like Faith Evans , Mary J Blige, Debra Killings, and Kelly Price , etc in the early 90’s…the music label executives were more concerned about looks than actual vocal talent went came down to marketing at a time when BET and MTV with Video Vibrations and MTV Jams…being more about how you looked…even Soul Train, the artists lip synced and it was more about how she looked…maybe she didn’t have a knockout figure and not willing to wear sexy outfits…Missy Elliot was so traumatized by what label executives would say about her looks…after Sista lost their deal through De Vante’s production company…all she wanted to do was rap on other people’s songs…co write and co produce/ arrange vocals…Sylvia Stone at Elektra Records…had to beg her to do a solo album because she knew how talented she was…Tammy Lucas was more like Faith Evans and Debra Killings…she created the blueprint for a lot of artists to have monster hits!
She was meant to be the first Artist to release an album on Teddy's Lil Man label followed by the Neptunes and then Queen Pen. Teddy decided otherwise and sadly lost them ua-cam.com/video/ZLwwP95tFuw/v-deo.html

It's crazy that some artists don't think themselves the way that we do. I was on a cruise w/LeAnne SWV). She was shocked that ppl, especially kids, still love SWV. I told her they've always been relevant, on the radio, ppl knew who she was, the old hades play their music so the youngins hear it & love SWV. I've known her since 93. She didn't know that I have always been a fan, from day 1, until 2016. I put them beside New Edition. She had no idea. She said I never talked abt it unless they brought it up. She thought we didn't rock w/them. I said bit@h...stop playin! 😊 I wanted to ask a lot of questions, but that was kinda weird. I love SWV like I've never been around them. WHEN Tammy comes out w/some tracks I'm all in. Absolutely. Tammy has been trippin. We love her. I'll buy the old & the new songs.
Love Tammy Lucas: Heavy D & The Boyz - is it good to you Guy - Goodbye love Backstreet - Tonight's the night( I love SWV, but I definitely prefer the album version featuring Tammy
I like this version. It is a little jazzy, soothing, and sensual. Intoxicating to the ears.♥️
I love the rawness of the demo
actual Lofi
Her pen game, voice and beautiful face are 🔥🔥🔥
This is incredible. SWV is my favorite R&B group of all time, but somehow I prefer this version of the song because it's understated & subtle, with a grainy sound...this is what I want to hear entering a dimly lit wine bar ;)
This used to melt my heart as a kid. The beat, the melody the lyrics ughhh. Long live the 90s! #90sbaby
Same Here.....
USED 2!? The Swv version still gets me everytime.
@@MrAddidas2 i cried the first time I heard this I was about 6/7 that's why I said that. Lol.

I know the feeling
SWV was the perfect group to sing this song.
I remember loving this song 🎧, it is a shame it didn’t perform better on the charts!
Tammy Lucas, Tasha Lambert, and Vinia Mojica never came out with a solo album that should have.
My favorite part in Use Your Heart was Taj's part.
I love Tammy's version as well. Both versions are beautiful 🥰
her demo is beautiful
Tammy could sing to me everyday all day!!!!
SO GLAD THEY DIDN'T TURN IT DOWN✔️👍
I’ve always loved Tammy Lucas’ voice. I know she is a major player behind the scenes, but I wished she would’ve had a bigger singing career of her own.
Always loved her voice! She also sang on, "Is It Good to You" produced by Teddy Riley and Heavy D's version.
That my favorite record from Heavy D !
She is the queen of New jack swing
her demo is FIRE!!!
I listened to this song at minimum 500,000. Love this song since I heard it in ‘96
Me too I loved this song so much
RAW Angelic Talent Tammy
When This Feeling and Use Your Heart were instant favorites when I first copped New Beginning back in ‘96.
Ms Lucas has a beautiful voice
When this feeling should have been a single
Nice rare track! I liked how Tammy sings it, very different to Coko. Both version are great. Interesting fact you can hear Joe on the tail end of the background vocals of the SWV accapella version and very clearly at the end.
Wow!! I never knew the male's voice in this song was Joe. I have never heard this version before until now. I like it. I love me some SWV, but Tammy's voice is wonderful too. I like the smooth, jazzy sound.
That’s Pharrell voice at the end lol not Joe’s
@@blemdoe it's Joe, look at the credits on the 12" and CD promo.
@@blemdoe It's Joe's voice. Not Pharrell. Pharrell produced this.
Its Joe. COKO confirmed this. He also sings a line of the bridge people think is Taj.
Wow this sounds very 1995 🔥🔥🔥this is too dope
Love this woman Those songs are CLASSICS
I seen a clip with Tammy and Jane child!... since you find almost everybody in R&B it would be an honor to see you have Jane child on this channel🕛🔁♥️
hearing that for the first time, i wouldn’t mind a single, ep, album or something with demos/references. voice was so refreshing. nothing like 90s r&b.
I always loved her voice and she deserves so much more recognition that it seems she gets.
SWV took this one...tho I like her voice too!
The beat...the voice...perfect combination 😍
Very talented and very selfless to think about other artists besides herself that's a gift just goes to show you that everything that you create has value Tammy doesn't have to get back in any studio if she don't want
She can just relax and drop her demos and those demos will make money if that's what she wants to do I listen to this a couple of times and I really like it raised in the 90s I love this type of music as someone who does music myself it let me know that no matter what my age is I can release my stuff and you never know it may just do great things it doesn't always have to be something negative congratulations to Miss Lucas I wish her nothing but the best really pretty woman in all her pictures too❤️
P.s much respect to this channel you doing a great job brother I appreciate you showing love to black American Artist writers producers and background people who don't get their credit they do deserve flowers even if they don't want them
Thank you 👍🏾😊
I'm a fan of these people. Tammy Lucas is the only guest that left me starstruck 😁
@@HalftimeChat
You doing the Lord's work my brother keep it up
It was a Neptunes betrayal. They screwed her over
Taj really gave life 🧬 to her BRIDGE part 〽️ ......... From the demo structure I would have let LeLee lead the verses......
Funny enough. Lelee leads the interlude version of Use Your Heart, and it bodies! I wish there was a longer version of it!!
But TAJ ONLY could hit that 🗣️BABY WON’T YOU USE YOUR HEART⁉️ in the studio she NEVER sang it live yet‼️
@@raconteur4069 for me that interlude version stays on🔂
@@ricardored207 That’s Joe singing that part
@@ricardored207 That was true for a long time. But in recent years Taj has been singing her part live and doing a pretty good job of it.
my favorite SWV song
There is something about this beat! Wishing this would’ve been a remix on a New Beginning’s remix album. 🔥
LOVE Tammy's tone on this demo
I’m glad they slowed the song down. My favorite SWV song

I can't wait to get Joe on the show for you 😀 hopefully 2023
@@HalftimeChat You know I'm gonna be so GEEKED!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍
Joe was so fine.
YESSIR get Joe (Thomas) on here. People don't give Joe his props. I love me some Joe...
Yep he also sings a line at the end of the bridge.
I LOVE IT!!

Alone, you and I intertwine
Refreshing conversation for the mind
As we stare we both seek and hope to find
Real love, purified
Use your heart and not your eyes
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes
I sigh as I watch you sleeping there
So easily I did things I'd never dare
I say to myself I'm glad that we share
Real love, purified
Use your heart and not your eyes
Baby, just relax and ride
If you got time then I got time
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes
My goodness, how it seems like yesterday
She crossed you, hurt you in the strongest way
You hurt so long, reward come to those who cry
Real love, purified
Just a second
I look at my watch's dial
And you love me
Helpin' me like a child
As we lay
I close my eyes and I smile
At your real love
Purified
Please interview Tasha Lambert and Vinia Mojica.

Love you Tammy
Tammy has a beautiful tone. Why didn't she have a big career? Her voice is beautiful.
This is interesting. Never knew Pharrell or Joe were involved with this so g
I wish she song it
Definitely a Riggity Raw Banger.. Diggin' it!# 😉😎👉🏿🎤🔥🔥🔥🔥🤙🏿
