Editorial Reviews :
With the release of this gorgeously produced album of duets from R&B singers and real-life couple Kenny Lattimore and Chante Moore, pure romance receives its ultimate soundtrack. Two things make the collection distinct: the pair's innovative choice of songs, and the album's sequence, which follows a narrative arc of flirting, dating, sex, love, marriage, honeymoon, and the aftermath. Beautiful but almost forgotten love songs get new life, notably 'With You I'm Born Again'--famously recorded by Billy Preston and Syreeta--and Lionel Richie's 'Still,' Keith Sweat's 'Make It Last Forever,' country singer-songwriter Clint Black's 'When I Said I Do,' and Ashford & Simpson's 'You're All I Need to Get By' and 'Is It Still Good to You.' Lattimore and Moore's married status makes this material resonate. The intimacy underscoring the spare, elegant 'Still' is palpable, and when the pair question their devotion in 'Is It Still Good to You,' there's no doubt they've been down that road for real. Lattimore and Moore can also sing; indeed, the two could make the Yellow Pages sound sensual. And if there's any doubt about the album's effectiveness as an aphrodisiac, consider the warning label on the back: 'This project may cause pregnancy,' it screams before coyly adding, 'Well, we got pregnant just making this album, so proceed with caution!' Point taken. --Kim Hughes
Buyer Reviews :
Kenny and Chante are an extraordinary complement to each other's voice and talent on 'Things That Lovers Do'. Their first CD as a married duet combines original songs and previously recorded songs producing 12 wonderful songs just in time for Valentine's Day. From the 12 tracks, only 'Is It Still Good To You' will probably receive less playing time than the others. I like the remaining 11 tracks equally.
Though I can comment on every track here's several that stand out:
• 'Things that Lovers Do' and 'Loveable (From Your Head to Your Toe)' are such sexy song! Their voices display an incredible blend making for sensual tracks.
• On the remake of 'You Don't Have To Cry' there's the feeling that two souls found each other after going through past heartaches.
• 'With You I'm Born Again' previously recorded by Billy Preston and Syreeta is delivered with the same strength and heart. A beautiful remake.
• When Karyn White and Babyface originally recorded 'Love Saw It' I thought the lyrics were extraordinary, but wasn't impressed with their voices. Kenny and Chante bring this song new life.
• So many female singers attempt to remake Minnie Riperton's classic, but Chante succeeds when she sings 'Here We Go'.
I was so anxious to listen to the CD that I didn't look at the insert until I completed the CD. Inside the couple provides quick-n-sweet sentiments for recording each song. The above comments were written before reading the insert; I now have a deeper appreciation and understanding of each song. As their love continues to grow, I hope to add many more CDs from this gifted couple.
