This is like an R&B mix, except at house music tempo. Modern day R&B songs about love & relationships, you have to admit, a lot of heartache & gripe...well, it is Rhythm & BLUES. Turn on the radio and the guys are saying, in effect, 'come here freak-ho-b*tch-gold-digger (& sometimes lady), shake it wiggle it and let me do that thing to you,' and the ladies are answering, "If I'm all that and just SOMETIMES a lady, then you need to know that you only getting this because you buy me these (insert shoe-bag-hair-vacation-car-rent). I don't need you anyway, dog...yeah I know about her. You must not know about me, I got this."

Essentially. With few exceptions. http://vimeo.com/28297270

This is an R&B conversation too. The mature version. The down here on the ground version.

Let us listen in on this couple's house:

Said he, "A Day Without U - Osunlade"

Answered she...with a reaction by him, "My Reflection (Original) - Osunlade"

Then he lays it on the line and tells her what he really thinks, "Angel - Liquideep"

She heard, but had to confess, "Closer I Get (Club Mix) - Marie St. James"

With words like those coming from her, they moved the conversation from the kitchen to a room where they could relax. You know what they say men think about every x amount of moments? "All Night Long (Album) - Mood II Swing"

She's flattered and it feels so good to be wanted but she's got something else to say, "Stay Together (Original Vocal Mix) - Barbara Tucker"

His eyes tell her that he understands as he reaffirms why he is where he is, "Girl of My Dreams (Timmy Regisford & Adam Rios Remix) - Peven Everett"

Still, however, she wants to makes sure that they both understand, the "Same Thing (Feat. Maiya James] - Osunlade"

Always the dreamer, he likes that she listens to his aspirations, both realistic and fantastic, "Butterfly (Ron Trent's Musicandpower Remix) - Osunlade"

All she can do is, "Hope - Dee Mac"

Because every time she gets close to feeling like it's real, them hims of the past changed lyrics, "Love Song [A Feliciano Ricanstruction Remix] - Nadirah Shakoor"

And he does too, but his lyrics are about trying harder to make it better, "The Better Life (Muzikman Edition) - Georg Levin"

She & he, they go to bed.... (D stands for DREAM in this story), "Tha D - Karizma"

In the morning, he loves the way she wakes him up, "Good Morning - Karizma featuring Monique Bingham"
