ALEXANDER O'NEAL - CRITICIZE (SPECIAL 12 INCH VERSION) WITH ACAPELLA

[@caesarstroman8481]

When I first heard “Criticize” back in the 1980’s, I played it over and over!! I still in the 2020’s play it over and over!! It’s just that type of song! Great song!!!

4real this is always my favorite song 🎧 it will never die out

[@gh990513]

Love this tune. Alexander O'Neal had a tremendous voice but I think the backup vocalists make this song great! They sound like angels harmonizing! Lol

[@100Watches]

The woman who sings the background is Lisa Keith. She also sang the lead vocals on Herb Alpert's "Making Love In The Rain". She released a solo cd "Walking In The Sun" in 1993

[@100Watches]

And you're right, it does sound like angels harmonizing.

[@MyHanck]

Wow! Thanks for this. I still remember vividly 40 years spinning that exact same vinyl on my shows!

[@donatellocavani7117]

the instrumental is absolute genius from layering to mixing to the sound they created

[@shadowmixx]

This deserves way more views and thumbs ups than this.

Killer audio on this version. I'm in love with the backing vocalist...

[@themirrorsofmymind]

Lisa Kieth. She released a solo album _"Walkin' in the Sun"_ in 1993 after years of doing backing vocals for many Jam & Lewis artists, including _Cherrelle,_ Mr. O'Neal, and Janet Jackson. She also provided the lead vocal on A&M Records co-founder Herb Alpert's _"Making Love in The Rain"_ with Miss. Jackson on vocal backup...

this song brings back the very best memories of a wonderful period during the late 1980s, when the very best in music was made, and alexander o neil made his best music, including fake.

[@cocolade99marmie]

Understated era of music that will never be repeated!

[@osibrathwaite2146]

I love the decays of the Tr-808 in the intro. That famous cowbell and rimshots. I've alway's enjoyed this remix.

[@TheCbone1979]

I can do this on my TR-8 pretty good. It’s a lot of fun.

[@tomadams5474]

Club and house party jam in my younger years. Still one of the best jams from that era.
