This #11 hit was their final major success before the whole penis incident pretty much killed their careers....
I really like this, great ballad. I like how they employed electronic elements in their music, it made them stand out a bit from other RnB acts. There was a great garage remix of 'Tell Me It's Real' that became a UK hit a few months before this came out.

One of them fondled his erect penis onstage during a KIIS concert and got arrested. They haven't had a hit since.

Honestly, sometimes I really don't understand humanity, despite being part of their race.  ANYWHO... I really dug this one, although "All My Life" is and will always be what they're most remembered for (after the penis incident of course  ) |

This is not their best song simply because it blended in in with their other songs too much.

I hated it. It was such a desperate attempt to be a throwback to the Jodeci material and it was just terrible. The worst thing they ever did.

It was okay. "All My Life" is really the only song by them that I love.

Awful, awful, awful!
I did like "All My Life" and "Tell Me It's Real" though.

I definitely prefer their Jodeci songs, but I really liked "All My Life".

I really love this song, because it's a nice ballad, as well as it was popular during the spring of 2001. I'm sure I've made it abundantly clear that the spring months of 2001 was one of the best eras of my life.

I hated this too, as I did most of their duo material. I was a big fan of Jodeci. Has anyone heard if they are ever going to do another album together. They swear up and down when interviewed that they are not broken up, but it has been I want to say 9 or 10 years since the last Jodeci album came out. I forgot all about the penis incident. LOL.  |

Kci & Jojo's last album flopped horribly. I think they might need a new label before they release another record.....

Jodeci needs to reunite if these guys ever want to have success again. All of K-Ci & JoJo's solo material was watered down pop fluff compared to the great work they did with Jodeci.

It was featured in the Julia Stiles movie "Save The Last Dance." It's my favorite Kci & Jojo song.

I agree with Josh, they gotta come back and put out some more good "DOAMB" & "The Show..." style chill and f**k songs and leave the sappy ballads and trendy uptempo s**t off. and don't hire outside producers. just let devante do it.
Ooops, about the topic, I guess this would be 2nd choice after "Life" which I think is a really great pop song.

I think this is a pretty good song but I don't like the way they vocodorized the vocals. K-Ci and JoJo have great voices, why should they be messed with?
My favorite K-Ci and Jo-Jo single is "Don't Rush (Take Love Slowly." It was the single they released after "All My Life"...I could be wrong but I don't think it went to Pop.

I really liked this song. It was a favorite. I think that's due in large part to "Save The Last Dance". :)

"All My Life" is miles ahead of this song... it isnt horrible but it isnt all that great. I could care less if they have another hit

If I'm not mistaken, isn't this song tied with "Hanging By A Moment" as the hits which spent the most weeks at #2 without going to #1?

I wasn't too "crazy" about this song. A major step down from "All My Life" and even "Tell Me It's Real."
