i can, but i know iknow ("ahmir you know everything!")

personaly "i can't let her go" was dope to me, cause i'm such a cameo fan. and that first song in which shawn sounded like "the meow mix" cat. 4 seasons something? that went number one. it was okay (me and rahzel would bust on this song for days singin the meow mewo meow meow part.) but it did go double platinum.

but i only know them shits cause they were paid for. plain and simple. they were paid for. if mtv wouldn't touch it, neither will radio, and without those two you might as well be.....common.
