2894876, Wow, to me, "I couldn't keep it to myself" sounds more 70's than a lot of what

we call "Neo Soul"....the drum sounds may have more of a Hip Hop texture, but the pattern could easily be from the 70's. And not just the rhodes, but the horns, the changes before the hook, the breezy vibe to it, it all just sounds soulful to me.
And also, "Neo soul" to me meant that it was a slight 90's Hip Hop influence to it, and wasn't an exact replica of 70s Soul. Even with D'Angelo, that was for sure Hip Hop influence...I think most of it had that feel until 2000 when some artists songs sounded straight from the 70's, with acoustic drums and no modern synths.
And it's from 96, but "Lovin you" sounds VERY very 70's to me...I thought it was a remake when I heard it.
