LOL. I had just listened to this tonight and I am wondering what I was thinking liking this so much back in the day. If my memory serves me right it reached number one on my charts. Man, I thought that they were going to create a "storm", evidently not.

Oh man... this song makes NKOTB's stuff sound great by comparison.

Arghh, did I ever hate this song. The high-pitched nasal voices they had were more irritating than fingernails on a chalkboard. This song only peaked at thirteen on the R&R charts, and thank God they don't still play this today.
Yeah, they sounded like the New Kids, especially on "Please Don't Go Girl".

Yep, this group is another one of Maurice Starr's group of boy bands of the 90s since launching New Edition and New Kids in the 80s. Another song that is "one and done" while the follow-ups went deep south!

It hit number 13 on the R&R chart. I remember the week it was climbing into the number 13 position, I was very upset about a girl that I had seen the previous day. I had a huge crush on her, and she had graduated high school and was leaving. I was listening to the Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 feeling awful when it came to the line of the song that went "Do you think if I keep singing this song, she'll hear it over the radio and come back?" At that point, they inserted one of their canned voices which said "NO" I suddenly had a smile on my face once again.

Reminds me of the summer of '90. My local station didn't have it on their play list. Only the countdown shows.

Simply dreadful! Didn't know this song existed until I found out that my pop station B96 in Chicago played this song when it came out (after reading numerous radio station playlists on Billboard, R&R, etc) although I was in preschool back then and have no real memory of this song. More recently, I finally heard this song on an 1990 episode of "American Top 40" w/Shadoe Stevens on Mixcloud and the chorus of this song can really irritating due to their girly voices (I know they were children but still!) New Edition they ain't! BTW, I found a duplicate thread on this song and it should merge: pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/117295/perfect-gentlemen-ooh-la-1990music video www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAddModv-Kg
