I found this single in the bargain box at Amcorp Mall flea market. Bought it for RM4 (~USD1).

Posted is a remix track, totally different from the album version.

Check out the very corny opening "phone conversation". LOL!

This song peaked at Billboard no.2 behind Mariah Carey's Hero in 1993.(Long live Mariah!)

So, what happened to Tevin Campbell?

In 1999, Campbell was arrested after soliciting oral sex from an undercover police officer posing as a male prostitute during a sting operation in Van Nuys, California. (Yikes!). According to police reports, marijuana residue was also found in Campbell's car during the arrest.

Campbell pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor of solicitation, and as a result was ordered to pay $1080.50 in fines, attend meetings of Narcotics Anonymous and participate in a court-sanctioned AIDS awareness class.

Campbell is currently playing the role of Seaweed J. Stubbs in the Broadway musical Hairspray. He has been with the cast since December 2005.

u don't understand how long i've been looking for this remix ever since my vinyl copies got warped back in '96. Thank You!!!! is there any way you can send me the remix version with him singing over the classic "Paul Revere" beat? on the vinyl, it was on the b-side so i'm sure it was also available on the cd that you have as well. i'm willing to trade any file you might need for that one if you have it. email me at jayson.reid@gmail.com, thanks again...

This song reminded me of a guy who played this song whenever i'm chilling out at this particular shopping complex when i was in my teen. By thw way, he was working there as a DJ. Each time i hear this song being played it reminded me of him.
Another song from Tevin Campbell that this guy use to play for me each time he calls at night was What Do I Say... listen to the lyric and you would know exactly what the song is all about...

if you have a crush on someone and you don't know how to tell it to her/him... just dedicate the song 'What Do I Say' by Tevin Campbell and the song says it all...
