Soul crooner Brian Mcknight, the younger brother of Take 6's Claude Mcknight, sings in a silky, seductive purr. He has a sweet, elastic tenor and a well-honed harmonic instinct that comes from being an accomplished keyboardist. Unfortunately, he rarely shifts gears, and remains stuck in that breathy, drawn-out crooning style for most of this album, <I>I Remember You</I>, the follow-up to his 1992 self-titled gold debut. It doesn't help matters that his songwriting lacks well-defined melodic or lyric hooks; too often the songs merely drift through pretty but amorphous chord changes. As a result, his performances quickly evaporate from the memory without leaving much impression. Like his biggest hero, Stevie Wonder, Mcknight wrote, arranged, produced, performed, and sang almost everything by himself on this recording, and his arrangements are full of clever Wonderisms--layered synthesizers, electric-piano motifs, and high-tenor embellishments. Mcknight always sings as if he's in the throes of a passionate swoon and never as if he's merely having a normal conversation; thus we never get to hear the transition from one to the other. And just as women are justly suspicious of men who are always in the seduction mode, so are album listeners. <I>--Geoffrey Himes</I>

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Decent Follow Up although not as strong as the first.......2006-12-17

I Remember You was Brian McKnight's sophmore CD to his excllent self-titled debut. I Remember You featured the single On Thw Down Love and the huge hit Crazy Love. I can't really remeber any other strong material but neverless the less still a good CD.

5 out of 5 stars Again with a beautiful cd @}->---.......2006-09-12

All of Brian's cds are great. This is another of those. It's over 11 years old now, but I still love it and I don't think it's really dated at all.
Crazy Love is the absolute standout on this; it's so mellow and sexy and fantastic bedroom music. Also my other favourites are Must Be Love, Kiss Your Love Goodbye and Day The Earth Stood Still. One thing I notice he does, is always sing within good range so he's staying safe and choosing the kind of material to release that will keep him sounding good. I absolutely love this kind of late night Quiet Storm and fans of his won't be disappointed in this cd. It delivers all the good kind of music we've come to love from him, and while it may not be his best cd, it's still a favourite with me.

4 out of 5 stars i remember you.......2003-09-28

In my opinion i like brian's voice and he's very talented and for the person who said he is whining obviously he's not in LOVE be cause basically it's just album for if you are with your girl and you want to make her feel like she is special and let her know how much you love her or if you are alone sitting at home and your in the mood or you want to relax then listen to this album it's a winner .

5 out of 5 stars Brian McKnight.......2003-09-10

To Rich from Boston, I think your taste in music is up your a**
You are entitled to your opinion, but what your so-called review
about Mr McKnight is uncalled for. You must have eaten some rotten clam chowder. That's all I have to say. Aight??
