Remember this song from a former member of the now-defunct Arrested Develpoment? It spent a record-breaking nine weeks at #1 on the Weekly Top 40 in '95! |

I thought this was a pretty good song then, and still do now.

Nothing sounded like this song before and nothing has since. Something about this song made me love it. It's totally different and immediatly recognizable. I remember listeneing to the year end show and this being number 1.

Excellent song. The #1 song of 1995 too, according to R&R. It's interesting that you gave the Rick Dees link...here's somethng I've wondered about...in spite of doing so well on the countdown, it only ranked at #13 for the year. (?)

I love it because it reminds me of the Spring/Summer 1995 and while I don't remember anything specific from that year, it's just the general feeling of carefree during that time of year while living at home and being in Grade 5.

mst, thanks!
I listened, and I immediately remembered it.
Don't remember much about it back when it was popular (too young), but it's a good song.

One of my favorite songs of the 90's! I really got into it in 1998, then didn't hear it. Last summer, I heard it on the radio again and it reminded me of how much I loved it. It prompted me to go on the hunt for her album. I looked EVERYWHERE but never even saw it. Finally, I was at a used CD shop and happened to stumble across it while looking in the wrong section. I think I found it in the T's or something.
The album, Wild Seed Wild Flower, is really great. I Know is awesome, and there are no other tracks like it really. But she has an amazing voice! She can really belt it out.
Do any of you remember Hopeless? It was on the LoveJones soundtrack. When you do a search for her name on a file sharing program, I Know and Hopeless are usually the two songs that pop up. You should all look for that one too, it's a great R&B song.

I liked it.
The follow-up didn't even make the top 40. It was called something like "Don't Ever Touch Me Again."

It's interesting that you gave the Rick Dees link...here's somethng I've wondered about...in spite of doing so well on the countdown, it only ranked at #13 for the year. (?) I didn't understand why that was. That whole list was kind of messed up, especially the Hot A/C version. I know that, starting in the summer of 1995, he was going by a chart similar to the mixed CHR chart (with Pop and Rhythmic figured in), but not all the songs in the top twelve were Rhythmic. Don't tell me that "When I Come Around" got enough airplay on CHR/Rhythmic stations to rank so far above "I Know". In fact, I doubt that WICA was played on ANY CHR/Rhythmic stations to be in the Top Five while "I Know" wasn't even in the Top Ten. At least Rick's year end lists are somewhat accurate now. It would be better if they were without all the songs that weren't charting at all in their respective year, but at least that gives him more choices of songs to skip over. |

Great, great song - makes me wish that I listened to pop radio in 1995 (I listened to country till sometime in 1997 and didn't really pick up on pop radio till the spring of 1999). |

While it's not my favorite song in the world, I could probably listen to it over and over and not get tired of it.

I should have said, "very enjoyable album," actually. Why didn't she ever follow it up, anyway? |
