One of the best songs of the mid 1990s was "Tell Me." Produced and performed by the New York based duet Groove Theory, this song is one of the best love songs done in a stylish, catch R&B rhythm. With beautiful, soothing lead vocals, this song captured my attention since the very beginning, and has become one of my favorite R&B songs of all time. On this maxi-single, several versions/remixes of the song are available which gives the listener different listening perspectives on this classic jam.

If there is one R&B song that defined my memories of the 1990s, it would be this song. I truly recommend it to anyone who enjoys quality, talented musicians... Truly, this song represents what talent is and should be.

Tell Me If you want me to(give you all my time)
I want to make it good for you (cause you blow my mind)
I promise girl(boy) that Ill be true (you're the perfect find)
so tell me if you want me to...

so goes the chorus of this incredible melody. Groove Theory had that magic in 95 and with this jam had radio nearly on lock. This is one of those unforgettable grooves that make you feel good inside. A classic easy going chill out 'tune' for the soul. Groove Theory remains true to their name and they drop one of the 90's most recognizable songs. A Must.

This is a nice jeepin' little song. The words get stuck in your head, and the beats are nice and smooth. You have quite a few remixes to choose from, everywhere from light R&B, to underground house. My favorite mix on the cd is "Cleve's 122 Reasons To Kick Dub" - a great underground club mix of the song. The other "Cleve" mix is quite bad. It did not work. The rest of the remixes are quite similar to each other, but with enough differences to make the maxi-single worth your coin.

Excellent early Neo Soul CD mixed several different ways. Very nicely done with great singing and production. Dope, Dope, Dope!

I wish they would have included the album version of "Tell Me" on the remixes, but just to have a copy of that "raga mix" on cd is like gold. "Tell me" is an r and b classic and they don't make songs like this no mo, so ya gotta have it.

When it comes to guilty pleasures and one hit wonders, the 1990's brought us so many of them in soul & R&B. There are very few of them that actually have still shown that they've delivered. Groove Theory was one of them. The duo of Bryce Wilson & Amel Larrieux, who later went on to solo status. But, when they made it with their debut single, they delivered. Tell Me, their signature song brought out a soulful and delicate track that actually has withstood the test of time. I like it because it is seductive and strong from the heart. I don't know if Groove Theory will ever reunite, but I hope there are more good soul songs like this that come out soon.

Song: B+

I played this song over and over again once it came out. One of my favorites of all time.

the Hook&Groove of this Jam reminded of a Rick James Production that He did on the Mary Jane Girls.I use to Bump to this Jam alot.it's still tight.
