"Kissing You" - Des'ree [Romeo & Juliet Soundtrack]

The Song of the Day was going to be "You Gotta Be", then I started searching for a link to send you to so you can hear it and I remembered this. It's kind of heavy for a Sunday morning but you've got to admit, it has a sort of hymnic appeal right? I swear Romeo & Juliet was like the first "serious" movie I saw growing up, that and The Basketball Diaries [I was a Leonardo DiCaprio FEIND]. Des'ree was born and raised in London became somewhat of a mega popstar over there. In '95 she did an American tour with Seal and the following year she would contribute "Kissing You" to the R & J soundtrack. She's also a legal hound, Des'ree sued Beyonce' Knowles for her "Still In Love [Kissing You]" version of the hit she dropped for the re-release of B'Day AND got an undisclosed amount of money from Janet Jackson for "Got 'Til It's Gone" off her Velvet Rope album, some music biz mumbo-jumbo. I wonder what she's doing now, maybe suing Grace Jones for looking like her. [???]
