Salam

Wondering what are the name in the title are? I'll just tell u straight then. U wont probably have guess or anything. Its the name of the members of Boyz II Men, and also the title of one of their album, which i regard as the best among all their songs. Maybe not many know the album since most of the song which has become Hits are just a few, like A Song For Mama which remains my favourite relaxing song.

But as a whole this album was the best. I got it during my 1st sem in kuktem. And somehow during end of 2nd year the mp3 file seems to be corrupted by sumthing i dont know and cant play it. Tried to download it in the net and end up going to a pay for the downloads, which i stopped the search back then. And i still continue even in my 3rd year here. Even ask help from some friends to search it and end up they also cant find any source which might help.

Yesterday at Kajang I look through my cd collection and found my back-up mp3 cds. I thought I just might take a look if its in any of these cds, not much hope though. And suddenly i saw folder BOYZ II MEN!!!! I was so damn excited and when i opened it....YESSSS!!! THERE IT IS!!!! What the heck i did in 2 years searching for this damn song if i knew i had back it up earlier. Heh...but for this album it was worth it.

There was only one track which is dissapointing - Bounce Shake Move Swing which i dont like the beat. It Sucks, to be frank. But others are hell good. Take Good Guy, about a guy which is taken for granted by the girl he like. Or Thank You In Advance, about a guy confessing his love and what he want for their love at first sight. And Beautiful Women, about women all across the place. Many2 more of the songs in this album is nice. Even the lyric is simple (even a bit too long...just a chorus though). Anyway if u want to listen to the album just ask me for the mp3s. Hehehe. Really happy that i found this...Here i paste 2 of the song lyrics ;)

Good Guy
by Boyz II Men

I don't understand your thinking
I thought we were happy guess I was mistaken
Give you all my love and attention
Say you don't want me cuz something's missing
Gave you all you wanted and you know it's true
All that I was doing meant nothing to you
And if I told you why we'd probably be cool
But I was so good to you so good

But you want a guy that's real nice
That will spend his dough and his time
But then you change and wanna thug guy
Who won't act right
Stay with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why it doesn't pay to be the good guy
Cuz every time

(Hook)
I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted throw me to the side
Rather have a man that would tell you lies
Tell my why tell my why tell me why
Why should I be the good guy
And get left for the man who don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why tell me why tell me why

I don't understand your reasons
Say you love me then say your leaving
The situation here has really changed me
Don't wanna fall in love cuz you played me
You gotta be kidding me, trying to get rid of me
I did more to you than any brother would do
I was good to you so good

Plus you wanna guy that's real nice
That will spend all his dough and his time
But then you change your mind and wanna thug guy
Who wont act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy
You callin' me late nights
Tellin me how he won't act right
Stay with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why it doesn't pay to be the good guy
Cuz every time

(Hook)
I was good 2 you
Played a fool 4 you
You messed it up for the next girl in my life
I'll never do the things I do for you
Our love just wasn't true
I was so good, so good to you, so good to you
Every time
(Hook x2)

Thank You In Advance
by Boyz II Men

Excuse me, I know we just met
But may I have this dance?

Sitting here with a drink in my hand
Your presence I can't ignore
I must admit I like watching you dance
But it seems like I've seen this before
Girl, you look like my first wife
Though I've never been married before
So I kiss your hand and tell you "Thank you"
You turn and ask me what for

For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange cuz we just met
But I thank you in advance

(Shawn, help me sing it)
Hi, my name is Shawn
Tell me your name
Although I know the last one
It's funny that we're shaking hands
[Wait a minute, I know this hand]
It's the same hand (I'll hold in front of a minister)
Same hand (when you're havin' my son and his sister)
I don't mean to sound so bold and forward
But I thank you in advance

For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange cuz we just met
But I thank you in advance

It's like I came back in time to tell you thank you
You were as beautiful then as you are now
Look in the mirror, there is a picture
Of you and the man you love

For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange cuz we just met
But I thank you in advance

For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March(?)
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange cuz we just met
But I thank you in advance

I, I, I, I, I
I thank you in advance, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
