November 2,1991. The day Shadoe Stevens announced on American Top 40 that the new number one song is Karyn White’s Romantic. That song ended Mariah Carey’s three week stay at the top with Emotions then the following week Karyn White was dethroned by Prince and The New Power Generation with Cream. Great 90’s dance hit co- written by Karyn along with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
That same day, in the UK, "The Fly" by U2 was #1 on the 'Official' chart. They ended Bryan Adams' 16-week run at the top there with "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You," and in turn would give way the next week to a cover of Tommy Roe's "Dizzy" by someone called Vic Reeves And The Wonder Stuff.
Late August 1991. I had just graduated high school in May and was on my way to my freshman year in college when this song came out. It was everywhere. Brings back so many good memories. Every time I hear this song, I am transported to that era. Great times.
What a leadoff song for the Ritual of Love album. Love Karyn's vocals in this song. Man, I really appreciate the backing vocalists (Darron Story and Andre Shepard) in this song. And of course, I love the musical instrumentation used in this jam by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
This song came out the same year the greatest summer of my life in 1991 along with the Chicago Bulls winning their 1st NBA Championship as Michael Jordan was holding the trophy next to his father and wife with tears flowing
@@inahaze76 The most iconic moment from the 91 NBA Finals that hand switch move by Michael Jordan left me in total disbelief and I remember Marv Albert on NBC saying the lookaway from levingston Jordan oh a spectacular move by Michael Jordan and the fans in attendance at the old Chicago stadium on Madison Street went delirious
@@inahaze76 The Pistons walking off the floor not giving the Chicago Bulls a congrulatory handshake after losing the 1991 Eastern Conference Finals fair or foul?
@@juliansmith4352 I didn't agree with the Pistons doing that. Lost some respect for them that day. They couldn't get past the Bulls after that, and maybe that was poetic justice. I do remember Rodman joining the Bulls sometime afterwards and winning championships with them.
@@inahaze76 I certainly agree with you cause Michael Jordan for 3 years after his Bulls lost the series to the Pistons showed sportsmanship the main culprits were Isaiah Thomas Mark aguire & Bill Laimbeer those 3 were sore sports only John Sally Joe Dumars Vinnie johnson & James Edwards shook the Bulls hands plus James Edwards & John salley were on the 96 Bulls
@@djnitetrain6171 Yes, they are. They have a song together called "He Don't Know Bout It". Also Jam has said he & Terry intentionally mimicked the LaFace sound for Karyn''s song. He also said this about a song he & Terry did for Johnny Gill called "Wrap My Body Tight". Babyface has also admitted he & LA were such big fans of Jam & Lewis, that's why they called themselves LA & Babyface. They have great respect for each other.
@@MrEXtraRaw Man, thanks for that trivia. Y'all just don't know how much I love Jimmy and Terry Lewis's musical styles and L.A. Reid and Babyface's musical styles. A lot of the CDs in my home have all four of their musical fingerprints all over them.
