  • Switch was really ...

    Switch was really an underated group. They sang great, they played instruments wrote music. This is without a doubt their best ballad. It definitely helped me communicate my message to more than young lady back in the day. This is the stuff that I have my son listening to now that he's getting serious about girls. Classic.

  • Lead singer passed ...

    Lead singer passed away from HIV. Sad. But this song when played just immediately forces you to relax, calm down, and listen intently.

    Switch lives on through this track here.

    R.I.P. R&B

  • This song brings ...

    This song brings out so many emotions.
    The words and melody are soooooooooooo beautiful that it makes you want to cry because of the truth that its willing to express. These were MEN willing to POOR OUT THEIR HEARTS to say to the world that love transcends male and female. Love transcends black or white. And I hate that love is looked at as being weak or cowardly today, when it's the foundation that the world was built on. More love & less war.
    May GOD bless The Debarge Family.
