by vivrant thang on old school friday
Last week we were breaking up.
Now we making up.
For some strange reason, I had a hard time coming up with “making up” songs. So I just went with two artists whose return to the music scene I am impatiently waiting for. Things just fell into place from there. Neither of these artists are “old school.” Sure seems like it though since both of them have deprived us for more than a minute.
First up, we got Faith Evans “Soon As I Get Home.” Who wouldn’t want to make up with Faye after hearing this sweet plea?
Baby if you give me just
another chance (oh baby)
I can show you love (more love)
Promise I’ll be true to you
(you don’t ever have to worry)
You don’t ever have to worry (no, no, no)
Cuz I’m gonna treat you right (baby I miss you)
Baby I miss you just want to kiss you
Hold you in my arms
And you know the best part of making up, right?
Gotta do the damn thing, “‘Til The Cops Come Knockin!”
*fans self*
Sorry ya’ll. That song is…QUITE special to a sista.
Hope you enjoyed my picks today. Hell, I know I did.

*PS: I know “Til The Cops” is not from Now but I just love that picture. Mmmm…

Great Choices! I didn’t play last week since I couldn’t really think of any break up songs. Making up is always better.
Have a blessed weekend.

Happy OSF.

First time hearing of Maxwell. The brother is real cool.
I chuckled with the whole hotel scene and her walking around. I’m a movie lover so this reminded me of “True Lies” with Jamie Lee and Arnold.

@danielle – I agree. Making up is SO much better.
@shae – GIRLLLL, you just don’t know. I’m just trying to maintain! LOL! I couldn’t watch the video myself.

Vivrant, it’s bad that i only know one Maxwell song, the one played on the movie Love & Basketball. He was jammin that old Al Green on the BET Music Awards though.

Tho I love me some Maxwell, I absolutely adore that song by Faith. It is SO sweet, I love it.

Nice. Two consistent artists that are really talented. I wonder if Maxwell updated his myspace page with one more new song or hell, just the fulled version of the song he posted. I doubt it.

I LOVE Faith’s first album. I hope she comes out with something new soon.
