He never sings this song...he thinks no one knows it. He was hurt about it for years, but now he kind of jokes about it. I hate it because it's still one of my favorites.
@@lisacox5405I know the song, but I never knew that it was him. And I’m embarrassed because I’m old enough to know 😅 I would’ve bet my last dollar that “you make me wanna” was his first single lol
I love how usher opened the show with MY WAY setting like a king upon his throne with that white fur studded with diamonds. Seeing usher from think of you (this song is neck and neck to candy rain IDC 😍🥹) on some 90s shxt THIS SONG WAS ALWAYS A VIBE. Real usher fans know..baby usher had it 🤌🏾🌟👑
Right plus TLC did the choreography…matter of fact I think this when he met Chili and had a crush on her since this young years before they got together 💯
@Chyna Edwards. I might be a little older than you but I myself was in college. I was 19 when this song hit, and this takes me back being in my college dorm after class on a warm sunny afternoon in FL, siting in the tv room watching all the hiphop/r&b classics on B.E.T and Rap City. Such simpler innocent times for me back then. I miss my college buddies; I haven't spoken to them in a long time.😥 Faaaaaaamuuuuuu! Go rattlers!🐍
Usher WAS & STILL IS one of the longest lasting singer from back in the day. He's a very positive, hardworking, driven, classy, well mannered, professional Gentleman. I like how he's always been focused on his music business and he makes good music. Ush is COLD, BAD as hell... All hands down and can dance his ass OFF. Love him.
Him and Beyonce made it through it all since childhood. I don't know anyone else in that Era that is still relevant, making music good music at that and not broke. Still humble still look good up there in age and all
Damn. The 90s was such a beautiful time to be alive. Everything was on point and not overly saturated. Having to wait hours on BET and MTV countdowns to hear this, unless you recorded on VHS 😂. Even crazier when he performed it on All That.
Definitely a hidden gem if you didn't know about it when it hit then. You really do have to remember it to look it up. He blew up with "you make me wanna" & it overshadowed this song. This one is probably my favorite one from him.❤️🔥✌️😎
I was today years old when I realized the main video girl was Taral Hicks, aka Keisha from Belly. Wow. Also I am mesmerized by this song because I remember going to my first concert with Usher and Monica was opening for Immature. Teens in the 90s were so talented!! It’s beautiful to see how far Usher has cane 30 years later!
Still listing this song in 2024!!! If you know you know this song will always be one of my favorite if you don’t know this song then you have the true love for Usher!!!💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️
Usher has been officially crowned as KING OF R&B 👑🎖️🙏🏾 he earned it. Watch club shay shay ❣️ usher is said to be the "successor" to MJ ..and the last artist to have recived a diamond album. 8 Grammys 12 billboard awards and the last r&b artist to have dance with Michael Jackson himself. Usher is KING ✨
Day 1 fan here!!! First song I discovered when I discovered Usher and played on repeat on my Walkman on a family trip to Montreal from NJ ❤️🙏🏼. Loved his music and talent ever since!! He is my favorite R&B singer and will always hold a special place in my heart since my adolescent years. Cant wait to watch him perform and watch him grace the stage. May God bless him always 🙏🏼
What a career Usher, Hype Williams is directing your second video and Diddy is backing you when you are only 16. I can’t believe how humble this guy is
This was my favorite Usher song of his entire career...this album didnt get the publicity it desrrved great music..I I hear Donnell Jones and Faith Evans singing all the background vocals.
Thank you very much. Chuck Thompson big time producing my favorite R&B singer of all time and many rappers and pop singers you made good music with many. Faith Evans, Biggie, Soul to Real, Ne Yo, and so many you can name of. RIP Chuck you did and done so much in the music industry. So much good music because of you.
It's still in my Top 5 favorite Usher songs. I wish he sang it live as an adult too. Yet, I saw him in an interview a few years ago where he said he used to perform it WAY back in the day and got pissed off because people didn't know it. So, he stopped singing it. He said he wanted to bring it back for this tour, but he still doesn't actually sing it. He plays the music...and dances a little to it. I think deep down he still feels a way that his first album didn't do what he wanted it to do.
Damn Usher was so cute he still looks good and youthful he has aged very well...But I miss this era of music I'm glad I grew up listening 2 the greatest 2 ever grace us Jodeci, 112, Dru Hill, Usher, Boyz 2 Men, HI Five, H-Town, Color Me Bad and the list goes on and on!!!!! can't no generation of music compare 2 the 90's early 2000's that era was WINNING!!!!!!!!!!
This was a great time for music - but the greatest? I was a 90s teen, but I got a hard time calling the 90s better than the Motown era, or the jazz era, or the funk era. Most of the 90s artists u noted I think would give deference to those older artists b4 them
Me too A. Taylor. The things we like from the 90’s pays homage to the late 60’s and early 70’s. But r&b or soul music is cyclical, I'm praying that I live to see another wave of great musicians and singers like generations past.
@@adriennebonner1206 there are some now they are very underrated. Check out Teyana Taylor, Anderson Paak, Sebastian Mikael, Kevin Ross, Ella Mai, Aloe Blac,
He really should start the Super Bowl performance with this. For the fans from the beginning.
He never sings this song...he thinks no one knows it. He was hurt about it for years, but now he kind of jokes about it. I hate it because it's still one of my favorites.
It would've been crazy if he started with Call Me A Mack 😂
@@SmoothCrmnl80 Yes...haha

The harmony on the hook is pure Brilliants . 💯
Its' the 30 Year Anniversary of this song ...
Thank you Faith Evans, Donnell Jones, Ronnie Laws, Biz Markie and especially Usher
Hello, the one with yes yes me! from the beginning of the song who is it?
Biz Markie@@IvanFdez_music
Usher is one of the greatest R&B voices in R&B history and the dude got the moves and the styles like Michael Jackson, still love his music today.
Taral Hicks is so pretty
Usher had so much soul and still does :), I love soulful music
YES!
Keshia from Belly was in that video
I didn't know about this
Omgg! I just noticed that! So pretty. I still love this song!
Sure do! He the last of the Mohegan
Did some research on her.. I could believe this was the same girl from Belly!
Donell Jones killed those background vocals
Betty Millz I know my R&B ! You my friend !? Hooked me up on sum game !!
Donell Jones was a background vocalist in this song ? 😵🔥 wow
Donell Jones Wrote This Song
Wow never knew that
AND Faith Evans!!
Donnell Jones, Faith Evans on the lyrics and Usher singing, dynamic duos of the 90's🔥🔥
Whaaa?? For real?
Power house I met her before
Thanks for this info!
Never knew that was Faith!!!!!😭😭😭
Damn. The 90s was such a beautiful time to be alive. Everything was on point and not overly saturated. Having to wait hours on BET and MTV countdowns to hear this, unless you recorded on VHS 😂. Even crazier when he performed it on All That.
1 of the top 100 hits of the 90s.❤❤❤
Who's Still loving/bumping this in 2022? The 90's are undefeated!
Me ..I have to remind my son's of early Usher
10/22/22
I just wrote a verse to the instrumental
Yes this was my teenage yrs still loving this
2023
Usher's first CD is so underrated. It was so good. As a whole, I think it was and is still his best CD.
So do I!
Facts but I like My Way better!!!!
From his debut to confessions is his best work in my opinion
Me too.
Confessions was his best
I was born Nov. 79 so i remember the young Usher era on the radio station!! I miss being a teen in the 90s!!! Can i go back please!!!
Yes I born may 1980 this was the good old days
U guys r lucky
Great time
Im a 80s baby I remember this song my mom friend had this on cassette back in 94 when it came out
Sept 23rd 1980...I just turned 40,I feel like an old man now looking back at far the 90's was. If you're an 80's baby the 90's the Era that shaped us.
This one is still a certified song to bop too!!!!🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I miss the 90's so bad😢
90's 4 Life- Jade, Brownstone, JoDeCi, TLC, Aaron Hall, Wu Tang, Mobb Deep, Onyx, Queen Latifah, Nas, 2Pac, Cypress Hill, ToTal, Faith Evans, Mary J Blige, Aaliyah...

The choreography in this video was everything!
Thanks to T-Boz
Still a classic damn near 30 years later
Aint that crazy this song almost 30 yrs old 😩
@@thetruesoulofanaquarius9302 real
WORD!!
Usher was 14 years old and his grown man voice still sounds the same jus a lil bit deeper🔥
Who would think that this young man in this video would be the legend that he is today?
Definitely a hidden gem if you didn't know about it when it hit then. You really do have to remember it to look it up. He blew up with "you make me wanna" & it overshadowed this song. This one is probably my favorite one from him.❤️🔥✌️😎
Easily my favorite from that Album 🔥 🔥
Man the 90's was an amazing time period
John Hoffman I agree
Yes it was
Best

PREACH 😍

Can't believe this turns 30 in August. A straight-up classic!!
Usher was a child singing like a grown man! 🔥his lyrics and music were 🔥
Yes he was and you just had to be there
Donell Jones wrote and produced this.
@@wilcoxpromise Usher also wrote it
@@wilcoxpromise I thought Faith wrote this
Um He was definitely an adolescent not a child actually so he could very well sing in an adult way with practice
This still my jam & I’m 41 ✨💫
Me too
He better perform this at the Superbowl
Don't dismiss your 1st hit! 😊
That's the same thing I was thinking how could we get him to sing this song again this was one of my favorite songs

Well he didn't and that's ok. His catalogue is massive there's absolutely no way to perform everybody's favorites I 13 minutes.
@@carlosedwards3230but he never does this one I never heard him once sing it live
@@Mone333WilliamsNope….R.Kelly is the king of R&B…..Why y’all trying to develop this false narrative?!??😂😂😂😂😂😂

Written by the RnB guru Donell Jones 🙌💯

Usher is Legendary!! Good memories
Still a big fan. If you're a true fan you will know Usher came out long before '97
Right! Usher is only 1 month older than me. So we were both in 9th grade when this song came out lol
Yes
Too bad for me then XD
I was a toddler in 1995 when his first album came out.
I never knew about him until the early 2000’s 😭
(Was born in early 90’s)
he came out in 95 right
When I was younger I thought he came out in 97.. I was born in 93 btw
Classic banger. Miss the 90’s
Another Donell Jones classic!
A underrated Usher Song Smooth Jam!
Old school videos r so amazing and so bliss. Old good things definitely come to an end
Classic ❤ I was a instant fan
He really has a way to get into your very soul, w every single song he does! Love Usher, always!💯
Amen
As a kid in ATL in the 90's, this was the video that made me wanna be Like Usher 😎
💎One of my favorite songs from Usher💎
Donnell Jones wrote this btw. Sounds like a song he'd sing!

Was a sophomore in HS when this came out. 90s R&B was the best. Usher is Still the ish!
i been waiting 19 years for Usher to top this one....
RodWone Lol goodBYE he topped this with Nice n’ Slow and then topped everything he will ever do for the rest of his life with the Confessions album.
My god!!! He was a baby!!!❤❤❤❤
Awww look at lil usher. And to think this was 20 years ago wow. Who would've known that this lil guy would be the international superstar he is now?
He had videos before this one called call me a mack he was little in that video
I'm not surprised
Call me a cougar! I'm here for this! My jam!
