98 DEGREES Invisible Man (3:53) PRODUCERS : Dane DeViller, Sean Hosein WRITERS : D. DeViller, S. Hosein, S. Kipner PUBLISHER : not listed Motown 32059 (cassette single) Yeah, yeah ... the last thing the world needs is another harmonious male quartet, right? Perhaps. But there should definitely be room at pop and R&B radio for this charismatic Ohio foursome. Not only are their vocals several crucial notches above the competition, but this sweet, shuffling groove ballad has lyrics that are as clever as they are romantic and charmong. Try and shake the hook from your mind after one listen. It is virtually impossible. Give these lads a video befiting their suave, matinee-idol image, and you have the final element to an act that seems destined to draw a broad and adoring young audience. |
