Remember What I Said
Jasmine Guy · Other Songs - Jasmine Guy
that all i wanted to be was me
and all i wanted was you to be happy
well baby that just yet might come true
all the things i've been through
must be in the past i must forget
i don't want to regret i just want to
forget i hope you see why this has
to be the truth i need more time
to give myself something for once
Remember when i said to you
that all i wanted was something
i could feel excited about
feelings in life go bad , in my life today
i can be strange, i can be weird
i can be all theses things you don't understand
i'm mixed up i'm feeling sometimes disapointed in myself
i'm feeling so loney even though i have everything everyone wants there's just something missing there my baby
siting under a cloud full of lie's
must never regret just forget only
siting under a cloud full of turth
must never lie just tell the truth
it's always backwards,forwards for me my baby
you must remember what i said this time.
Remember What I Said
Jasmine Guy's 'Remember What I Said' stands as a defining track from her solo career, blending her signature soulful vocal delivery with a rhythmic groove that anchors the New Jack Swing movement of the late 1980s. As a prominent figure in hip-hop and R&B, Guy brought a unique blend of theatricality and authenticity to the genre, and this recording exemplifies her ability to craft anthemic songs that resonate across generations. The track has become a staple in her discography, frequently covered and sampled due to its infectious energy and memorable melody. It reflects the era's shift toward more socially conscious yet commercially viable hip-hop, showcasing Guy's versatility as both a performer and a cultural icon who bridged the gap between traditional soul and emerging urban sounds.
