Right Here/Human Nature- SWV

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   The 1993 top 10 hit uses the background of Michael Jackson's 1983 hit Human Nature on the remix by Teddy Riley (which elevates an average single to a fantastic #2 hit). Just wondering but its always listed and played as a remix, was the original Right Here by SWV ever played on radio or is it only limited to the R&B charts? The original Right Here appears on It's About Time, the 1992 release from the group and had its own CD single. I would probably say no to the original being on radio, I never heard it.

	The original version of "Right Here" was the first single released by SWV. It only managed a #92 peak on the Hot 100, so not many stations played it. The success of "I'm So Into You" and especially "Weak" paved the way for the remix to become a big hit too. Of course, the added "Human Nature" element was also instrumental in its success.
