Boyz II Men - End Of The Road (REACTION)

[@pitmatix1457]

Back when R&B was still actually R&B

[@liz6816]

I’m dying at your little “oh” when Wanye (the second guy) starts singing. Wanye always elicits an “oh” from me, to this very day. When I watch these videos and he starts singing, I ALWAYS react like that. Mariah Carey said he’s one of the best singers in the entire world, and she ain’t lyin’. You’ve got to do “Water Runs Dry” by them. It’s lovely.

[@JeanaeJonesPlanningAvonHome]

Nathan Morris of Boyz II Men serenaded me in concert with his entire first part of this song in 1998. I had front row seats. Almost peed my pants. I will NEVER forget it. ❤️

[@reggaejoe494]

OMG !!! lol Im a man and that would be amazing hahaha

[@JeanaeJonesPlanningAvonHome]

@@reggaejoe494 Every time I hear the song, the lyrics he sang to me, belong to me. I'm actual friends with Nathan on Facebook (we became friends before he had an assistant handle it), I told him "Thank you... All those women you've personally serenaded have a memory for life. I'll be 50 next month, and I'm still talking about it." 😆

[@kgunitkeese17]

I’m trying to imagine how you’d react if Mike spoke to you with his bass voice. 😜 At the same time, they’re not the same without him. They NEED THAT BASS!

[@JeanaeJonesPlanningAvonHome]

@@kgunitkeese17I'd had a huge crush on Nathan for a couple of years before that concert. So during the concert, front-row, I couldn't take my eyes off Nathan which was probably very obvious to him. All four winked at me (I WAS A TOTAL HOTTIE WHEN I WAS 26!). I got a rose from each of them at that concert, and Michael McCary's (bass voice) sweaty towel, all of which I kept for YEARS! 😆 It would have been cool if Michael McCary had sang to me in his deep voice, but Id pre-planned to meet and marry Nathan, so nothing could to top Nathan serenading me. I agree, the group is missing something without Mike's baritone in the background. They need to work something out.

[@kgunitkeese17]

@@JeanaeJonesPlanningAvonHome Fair enough. 😂 Though Mike isn't a baritone. He's a bass. I'm a bass-baritone, but he's definitely a bass. Nathan is a baritone. So what they are literally right now are two tenors and baritone. Bass is essential. I haven't quite forgiven them because they talked smack about Mike on Larry King's (R.I.P.) interview.

[@CrystalclearComcom]

Back then boy band used to sing their songs with meaningful lyrics... They sing from the heart

[@RedRubyG]

The harmony here is spectacular, played this song 1000 times and I never get tired of it.

[@Eowyn187]

Not many groups can boast that all their singers are great solo... these guys can. Well, and the Bee Gees. Nuff said.

[@tracerow]

Practically everybody loved these guys. Miss those times.

[@Siansonea]

My favorite Boyz II Men song is "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday". I highly recommend it for reaction.

[@melissagibson3306]

I use to dance with my baby son to that song. He loved it. He would fall asleep in my arms.

[@Siansonea]

@@melissagibson3306 it's one of the most poignant songs ever recorded. Just beautiful.

[@melissagibson3306]

@@Siansonea It is.

[@paulie609]

I saw them in Philly around 1991 and they did "So hard to say Goodbye to Yesterday" before it was a hit. What an experience!

[@paulie609]

Absolutely agreed 👍

[@MrBobbyz24]

Boyz II Men were larger than life in the early-mid 90's

[@alicewestbury4817]

There are some songs that should NEVER be recorded by other artists and this is one of them,

[@novembercherry4]

Exactly.

[@izorion6443]

Normally I'd agree, but you should really check out the cover by Home Free.

[@Matt-ed2wq]

Home Free is the only cover that does justice to the OG version

[@TheHummingbirder]

I love this group. There aren't that many from any era that harmonize like that, and just hand the lead off from one to another so smooth. Thank you.

[@Sarah-ft8jr]

I saw boys 2 men in concert about 12 years ago. They were soo good! I even got to meet them and chat to them. Was a great night!

You need to hear them in One Sweet Day with Mariah Carey

[@amysjusticeleague3011]

YES THE ONE WITH MARIAH CAREY

[@sharonpreston4925]

Also A Song For Mama❤

[@philipkudrna5643]

Yeah, definitely. I also wanted to suggest this. „One sweet day“ is even better than „end of the road“...

[@TheHopeKent]

Yaaasss, awesome song

[@EvilLoynis]

Yeah that song stayed at #1 for 16 damn weeks and held the longest time at #1 record for 23 years. Also their song "I'll Make Love to You" spent 14 weeks at #1 only to be replaced by their own "On Bended Knee" that then held for 6 weeks. This made them only the 3rd artists to ever take #1 from themselves, the other 2 were Beatles and Elvis just fyi.😎

[@RupertPringles]

No auto-tune here my friend... the girls love that deep voice brotha, Michael McCary... one of the last of the great quartets, you will definitely not find this these days.

[@JL-ov6dg]

This song brings back that early 90s feel for sure. I was in the 8th grade when they were the IT group and I remember it like yesterday. I won tickets on the radio to see them in concert and went with my best friend. Got to meet them too. Such a great time to be a teenager!

[@pamking357]

This is a good heartbreak song ! Their harmony is spot on

[@Erikalynn1977]

I remember when this came out everyone in my school loved this song lol love these guys so much ♥️

[@thebix100]

Check out Motown Philly by them

[@ricmotta2495]

This comment made me rethink the idea of reactions maybe should follow a timeline, so they get a feel for the evolution in old artists. Motown Philly is what put them on everyone's radar with good reason.

[@michellehammock3023]

Motown Monday just got better with the Philly grove. Another banger of a song.

[@Eowyn187]

Yes!!!!

[@marianamaguire7450]

I love "on bended knees"

[@etude79]

the music video is the edited version of this song. If you listen to the soundtrack recording, the intro is 21 seconds long and it includes a spoken word recitation from the group's bass singer, Michael McCary (he's the one holding the cane in the video, who later will do another spoken recitation during the instrumentation of this song). The song is originally 5:50, towards the end, the group keeps ad-libbing and the acapella lasts about 30 seconds until the end. When Boyz II Men first came out in 1991, they had some great songs but it wasn't until this song in 1992 that made me a fan. This remains to be my all time favorite song. You can just feel the pure heartache and emotions.

[@babybobs6]

Boyz II Men vocals are unmatched in the R’n’B genre in my opinion - saw them in concert 12 years ago in my home town in Ireland 🇮🇪 and they were UNREAL! so many classic songs

[@georgeibrahim7945]

On bended knee is my favourite of theirs. They are best boy band RNB group of all time and have best awesome harmonies

[@djladygee]

Boyz II Men broke to the scene with a massive New Jack Swing hit "Motownphilly", discovered by Michael Bivins from New Edition. New Jack swing hits kept coming and remixes too. "Sympin" was equally awesome, but my personal fav is "Under Pressure". But their slow jams were even bigger, as their harmonies, clean cut smart look, and respect for women blew girls hearts away. They were all lead singers, unlike other groups that had just 1. Their acappellas were unbeatable. "It's so hard to say goodbye" was probably the 1st acappella I am aware of to become not just a hit but a classic! "End of the road" was probably number 1 for what feels like a whole year, "One sweet day", "I'll make love to you", "Please don't go away" rocked and my fav was "Uhh Aah" the original album version. Their first album Cooleyhighharmony is a treasure I will never part from. They released more albums but none produced as many hits as first. Eventually Mike Bass who was always carrying a stick, left the group due to chronic back pain. Other guys are still active. I loved your reaction. I'm glad that young people today can appreciate the classix.

[@miabreakingdownwith1476]

[@mikefetterman6782]

In traditional Philly music style (like the old do wop groups from American Band Stand in the 50 and early 60s) every member is a singer and has strong sections or strong songs within the group. A deep bass, and a couple good alto/tenors are crucial.

Absolutely love this group. So many great hits. 😍😍😍
