Which Kells songs get you teary-eyed?

No homo of course, but come on my fellow fans, lets keep it real --I know for af act that I 'm not alone when I say there have been some times I'm sittin by myself and been sippin somekind of liquor, and have gotten emotional over a Kells song.

Remember the mr.Showbiz documentary, the part when Kells asks the crowd how good is their sex and EVERYBODY cheers, and then Kells goes "now Oakland, errybody just aint got it like that. Come on now, let's keep it real up in here!" well thats exactly what I wannto have going on up in this thread. real talk, straight up and no chaser.

so here's me:

--If I Could Turn Back the Hands of Time (this jam makes me reflect on two past gf's of mine--I know I'm young, but I still feel a kindof loss for them and the possibilities we couldhave had when-ever I put this track on. ALSO, this is my top Kells song ever; obviously a very tough decision, but this is the tune I'd choose if I was forced)

--Looking for Love (makes me think of my birth (real) mother ,who's not with us anymore and who I never had the opportunity to meet. this song ALWAYS gets my mind thinkin about how she must have been, as Rob says, "lookin for love in all the wrong places." I usually get teary-eyed over this tune; there was 1 time I had like 8 shots of Johnny W. in less than 20 minutes, and was sitting alone, and I fuckin cryed my fuckin eyes out listening to this song. ABSOLUTELY the most underrated Kells song OF ALL TIME.)

--Hold On (from the Ali soundtrack. most people think Kells just did the "World's Greatest" for that soundtrack, but did this amazing song as well. DIRECTIONS: have about five to seven drinks (in under an hour), and listen to the last 30 seconds of this song: "through the storm, and throoough the rain/ you can knock me dooown, but I'm gonna staaand again, yes I will/ Runnin on this path, if I keep my pace...hey! I can see the fninsh liiinne, I'm gonna win this race!")

--Forever (I'm an atheist, I hate children and I never want to get married, but this song makes me wish I had the strength to be the opposite of those three things.......... "No more playin house nooooo, cuz, I wanna make it real, do ya understand?...")


See, that wasn't so tough, was it?

Make sure to give us not just the song titles, but also reasons why.

Robert's cover of "Sadie" a tribute to his mother I remember when she had died and he performed it in concert. He sung it with deep passion.

"I Believe I Can Fly" to me at the time it sounded like Robert was maybe contemplating suicide.

"Trade In My Life" knowing all the jealousy Robert got from his peers, since he still hung out with his ghetto homies. You can hear some sadness in his voice.

"3 Way Phone Call" with Kelly Price Robert sounded like he really needed the Lord and that he was afraid he'd never make it back to success.

I dont really tear up...but i get chills...i think there was a thread about "chills"

anyway, mine are: Trade in my Life and ...hands of time.

U seem to be drinking alot of liquor..anyways wow great thread man...I'll have to go with

FIRSTLY FOVEVER MORE ...THIS SONG GIVES ME HOPE THAT I'LL FIND THE PERFECT WIFE ONE DAY THATS GONNA MAKE THIS BROTHER WANNA SETTLE YOU KNOW...

SECONDLY I'LL SAY TRADE IN MY LIFE...THIS SONG MAKES ME THINK ABOUT MY STANDING WITH CHRIST...THE FADE OUT IS GREAT WHERE HE MAKES A POINT " TRUELY I'LL TRADE IT"

LOOKING FOR LOVE ..I DID'NT EVEN NO WHAT LOVE WAS BUT I WAS SUPRISED HOW IT KEPT ME YEARNING TO FIND SOMEONE SPECIAL...

I BELIEVE I CAN FLY ...DONT YO JUST WANNA FLY IF I COULD I FLY TO ALL MY PEEPS ALL OVER THE WORLD...NO NEED FOR GAS JUST FOOD AND WATER AND A PLACE TO REST..LOL....FLY WOULD'NT THAT BE SOMETHING...

GUYS THERE IS MORE TO ADD...LET UR LIGHT SHINE I WAS GOING THROUGH MY FINAL EXAMS WITH THESE SONGS...IT KEPT ME GOING...

I'm your angel... I just can't help but anytime i hear this song it makes me think about all the sad things i went through in my life

Let your light shine... This song has so many emotions you don't have the see the images, videos etc. but you can completely imagine what the people of New Orleans been through

mh, I never shared tears because of a certain R. Kelly song. I might have cried while listening to some like "I wish" or "When a woman's fed up" but that was because of the circumstances surrounding me and not because of the song.
And by the way, you really drink a lot of alcohol. Watch out cause that shit can get out of control.

Yes, I do drink a good amount of liquor, at least a good amount for a guy who's 20. but yeah, alcohol just helps me to slow the fuck down. and there's nothin better after work than a glass of whisky on the rocks with a cohiba cigar.

hopefully by then I'll have completely stopped smoking cigarettes and will only be holla'in at one cigar per weekend.

but as for my liquor intake 5 years from now, I will most likely be sipping on some whiskey on the rocks. and, depending on how difficult my day has been, I may very well be gulping down the whiskey.

quid pro quo--how much alcohol do you drink and what's your favorite? (I'm assuming you drink, btw)

I Wish

Lookin For Love

Trade in my Life

Leap Of Faith (listening to this right now...beautiful! K. Johnson I'm an atheist just like you are, but i referr the "You" in "you kept the fire burning and you kept hope alife...etc" to a certain person instead of God. You feel me?)
