Grapevine, but I am totally sympatico to Boyz II Men and would have voted for "Motownphilly" if it was there.

insufficient Lionel Ritchie support on thread

Musically, Im in the UK though and I don't listen to radio now (and haven't for years)

I really hate Boyz II Men.
x-post

I was raised on them more or less. "Motownphilly" was the first tape I ever had. II was the first album.

There is actually a part of me that wants to vote for "End of the Road."

Like with the UK one, the tracks I like the most aren't perhaps the "Best". But fuck voting for a Best, I've gotta decide between "End of the Road" and "All Night Long".

lol, back at one OWNED

I can't wait for the Lionel Richie comeback this year. CAN'T WAIT.

Hello

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I seriously expected this to be better than the UK list, but I was wrong. Anyways, "I'll Be There". Possibly the best ever vocal performance by a preteen?

So the year after college this guy and I both had girlfriends at our alma mater, 14 hours from where we were living, and we took a road trip to visit these gals, and the drive was long and tedious, and as we neared the campus at something like 3 a.m. with the radio blasting to keep awake, "I'll Make Love to You" was on the air, and we sang along with it at the top of our lungs to get us through the home stretch to our ladies.

Whereas "Three Times A Lady" and "Endless Love" remind me of going out for pizza as a kid.

And "Grapevine" is great, but I mostly associate it with a 7th grade chorus class where the lyrics were changed to "with some other girl that you knew before" because I was one of the only guys in the whole class.

"Upside Down."

i am gay, though.

Jackson 5.

Boyz II Men certainly made more than their fair share of the worst music in the world, but they had a couple tight songs..."Water Runs Dry" is the jam...

somebody should do a II poll

I would be down with that

Miss perfect's ranking is, indeed, perfect.

I seriously expected this to be better than the UK list, ....
