I still think that this Hi-Five album was the best of the three. They sounded more mature here as they had to step up their sound a bit. I still like the funky She's Playing Hard To Get. But the rest of the album has some surprises. The four R. Kelly produced songs are solid and I still love Quality Time. Hmmmm....doesn't that song sound like R. Kelly's Sex Me?--identical sounds. But songs like A Little Bit Older Now, Mary Mary and the funky Video Girl demonstrate their newer image. I still love Fly Away and how the ballad sounds. I still play it sometimes. This was a well done followup and Tony Thompson can sure be SAANGING it at the end of Quality Time and the rest of the album as the lead singer.

This album was really great! My favorite song is "Whenever you say". If you don't have this cd you should definately get it!

This is the last known CD for this goup, other than a guest appearance on the Low Down Dirty Shame Soundtrack. I thought this group was going to be around for awhile but them apparently moved on to other things

As I listened to this last night and again today, I couldn't help but smile. This is pure 90s music - you can hear the New Jack Swing and R. Kelly influences (and vocals) throughout. Fun, danceable, teen angst, feel good music featuring Tony Thompson's above-average teen twang vocals, make this one of the better 90s boy-band CDs. My only throwaway here is Video Girl, although I do let it play when listening to this CD. When Tony sings "Whenever you say, girl" (Whenever You Say) and "Girl when my {pager goes off} I'll ignore it baby" (Quality Time), I believe him! However, that lyric really does make the song sound dated.

Sure, you'll compare these guys to New Edition and Troop, but Hi-Five was in a league of their own. 3.5 stars.

This cd is full of great beats and tunes, but the ballads are so smooth as you would expect from the late Tony Thompson and the guys

This was better than the first. In my opinion this album deserved some awards. "She's Playing Hard To Get" "Quality Time" "She Said" "Fly Away" and "Whenever You Say" are some of my favorite songs on the album.

Hi-Five possesses the perfect blend of soul and R&B. This is best experienced on drives to the beach, back-porch house parties, and nights in the city, dancing in the moonlight. Hi-Five is another easygoing-breed quintet with accompanying producers who also did work with Boys II Men, ever present during this era. "Come and fly with me with me, my love," the group expresses on "Fly Away," sending a message of a cry for freedom and love. Their radio hit single is an engaging jam in which the boys profess that "she's playing hard to get, and she likes me." "Quality Time" is another appealing tune filled with fresh harmonies overlaying a passionate melody. Hi-Five reminds the listener of what it felt like back in the day, reminiscing and realizing that everyone's "a little bit older now, a little bit wiser now." Like the first CD the group is strongest with ballads in particular Quality Time, Fly Away and She Said.

i've just find out one of my favorite group was in a accident
and i am very sadden about it.i hope that he makes a full
recovery.we the hi-five need to see more of them on the music
business because the ones that are out dont know nothing about
love.so if you dont have there albums you are missing out on a
lot of true singers.

HI-FIVE WAS ONE OF THE HOTTEST GROUPS WHEN I WAS GROWING UP. I REALLY ADORED THEM AND LOVED EVERY SONG THEY EVER MADE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM REUNITE AND MAKE HITS LIKE BEFORE. I JUST DISCOVERED THAT ONE OF THE GUYS WAS INJURED AND I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT. I STILL LOVE THEM THE SAME AND I KNOW THEY WILL RETURN ONEDAY TO DROP THOSE HITS ON ME. I REALLY MISS U GUYS AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART.
