Remember how I was saying that greatest hits CDs are the best thing since sliced bologna? Well, I ordered Johnny Gill’s Ultimate Collection album…..and it’s the best thing since they put shampoo and conditioner in the same bottle!! It is soooo s*xy and soothing. Johnny sings with such passion you can’t help but believe what comes out of his mouth! One of my favorite love songs of all time is “Can You Stand the Rain” by New Edition. This CD has a quiet storm mix version (it’s s*xier than the original). And do you all remember the song he did with Shanice, like 15yrs ago? It’s called “Silent Prayer”. She wrote it for the troops in the Gulf War. It tugs at your heart. Then there’s the song “There U Go” that he did for the Boomerang soundtrack, OMG! One of the s*xiest songs, period. Then they give you the classics like “My, My, My” and “Where Do We Go From Here”. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the ballad “Quiet Time To Play” but all I have to say is grownups need time to play grownup games (can I get an Amen?). But the one I relate to the most is “I’m Still Waiting”. He’s pouring out his heart on this track, letting us know that he hasn’t found that one special person, the one he can love and depend on. I’m dealing with those same feelings as your reading this but Johnny is helping me through it. There aren’t too many CDs that you can put in and let it play from beginning to end but this is definitely one of them. If you don’t have it yet do your soul a favor. I have planes for this CD (wink wink)!
