411 - Get down on my knees
Goodness knows where they came from, it seem like if it were out of the blue, but their first track is pretty neat sounding to me. Guess you lot think its shit (as usual

no idea about the sample but i do like the track - saw a live performance on mtv base which was pretty good - good to know that sometimes record execs will let some british talent come through

Yea its okay, bit of an annoying vocal ( the get down on my knees bit )
Shame they ruined it with an american rapper in the middle of it - Would have liked them to keep it UK |

I heard the 411 girls say that the sample is actually Cuba Gooding Senior sped up to sound like a woman. Hope that helps.

I think this song is terrible. The vocals are technically lame ( i think i wrote some more sophisticated ryhmes in primary school), and sonically sound awful -almost karaoke like. And Ghostface?! He's got like 5 lines, and you can just tell he regrets signing up to do this.

This is Ghostface's rap: Quote:
And yo' I asked you to calm down I heard the song without the rap the other day, and it does seem kinda bare...
Asked you who was on the phone put the horn down You had a glass of wine a Versace night gown, a lime green one That I brought you for the trip from the cruise you won, I don't approve of those male friends, (no) I told you back then when we first got together, I don't trust those men And you did it again I lost my temper, blinked out and wrecked the house boo That's all I remember, I'm sorry |

The thing is, the rap is best bit! ![]() Quote:
I remember how we met it was on the train
how could i forget you smiled and looked at me the soft of your lips, they captured me the whole ride down we kept our eyes on each other and then we sat, down together you gave me your number, said give me a call I thought i wouldn't call at all here we are fell in love like hand to glove pure bliss from above now all we seem to do is fuss and fight we never seem to get it right See there's too much fire so much desire so it took a little time to take me higher I'm sorry if i hurt you and i went astray I guess we gotta call it a day ha heh |

The "the get down on my knees" vocal is very annoying and I think it spoils the song a little.
But they are good to look at

Think it's out this week, anyone know its midweek? |

Back to the song though., I really, really like it. Its a really laid back, summer soul number. Btw, I did read they called themselves The 411as a nod to Mary J Blige , who is one of their biggest influences.
