It's undeniable that we should be together It's unbelievable how I used to say that I'd fall never The basis is need to know if you don't know just how I feel Then let me show you now that I'm for real If all things in time time will reveal Yeah... One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one... So Incredible the way things work themselves out And all emotional once you know that its all about, hey And undesirable for us to be apart Never would of made it very far Cause you know you got the keys to my heart One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one... Say farewell to the dark of night I see the coming of the sun I feel like a little child whose life has just begun You came and breathed new life Into this lonely heart of mine You threw out the life line just in the nick of time... One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one...
Brian McKnight出生於1969年6月5日,美國紐約市。他成長於一個音樂世家,全家都是當地教堂唱詩班的成員。他的祖父是指揮。在這種宗教信仰的熏陶下,McKnight還從中了解到了其他音樂知識。 在他很小的時候就開始嚐試著寫一些簡單的曲子(軟爵士,簡單好聽的那種)。很快,他組織了自己的樂隊並且在本地開始演出。18歲的時候,McKnight獲得了出唱片的機會。他加入了有他哥哥Claude在內的Take 6樂團,並和一家唱片公司簽定了合同。
在推出了相當數量的DEMO之後,McKnight吸引了Mercury Records 總裁Ed Eckstine 的目光。Eckstine很欣賞McKnight的嗓音,並且在兩個禮拜之內月他簽定了合同。McKnight第一次在公司旗下推出了The Way Love Goes",在公告牌節奏布魯斯排行榜上停留了19個禮拜並達到了第十一名的成績。不過他後來的兩支單曲都未能突破公告牌節奏布魯斯排行榜60名以內。其中一首名為"Love Is"的歌,是與黑人女歌星Vanessa Williams 合作的,不過諷刺的是,這首歌曲雖然在節奏布魯斯榜上無名,但在流行榜上卻爬到了第三的位置。但不管怎麽樣,還是為McKnight爭取到了一些歌迷。
他的第二張專輯《I Remember You》賣了5萬張左右,其中有5首單曲都進了公告牌節奏布魯斯榜前20。這時McKnight的名聲已經確立了,這時,公司決定停止一切工作把精力都放在他的第三張專輯《Anytime》上麵。首個單曲"You Should Be Mine (Don't Waste Your Time)"推出,在全美音樂排行榜上到了17名位置,這首歌是由說唱歌手MA與他合作的,試圖將HIP HOP歌迷盡可能的拉到McKnight的擁護者中。不管怎樣,這首歌曲已經代表了這張專輯會是十分成熟的節奏布魯斯以及浪漫情歌的組合。專輯登上了全美銷售榜的20名以內。然後McKnight轉投到著名黑人音樂唱片Motown Records,並推出了聖誕專輯《 Bethlehem》。 隨後在1999年推出了大受歡迎的《Back at One》,這張專輯隻用了幾周時間就爬上了全美銷售榜第二的位置。
