I’m Gail Nobles and we're diving deep into a soulful number that had everyone gettin' down back in '90! We're talkin' about After 7's "Can't Stop"!
This song soared all the way to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100! And that ain't all - it grabbed the number one spot on the R&B charts! This record was golden! Certified Gold by the RIAA, and you know that means people were lovin' it!
Now, let's crack open this lyrical treasure chest and see what kind of magic After 7 was spinnin'. The fellas are singing about a **life-altering night!** Let's break it down, step by step, like a smooth dance move:
"Last night, I had the time of my life, it's true! Oh, last night, I made love for the very first time, with you!"
This ain't no ordinary encounter! Last night changed EVERYTHING! He had the best night of his life, and he's claiming the special someone is the first person that he made love with. The real deal, folks! A night so special it stands apart from anything else!
"And I can't stop (I can't stop) how I feel. I'm diggin' on you, you're diggin' on me. We're diggin' on we. And, no, I can't stop (I can't stop) how I feel. I'm diggin' on you, you're diggin' on me."
And here it is! The chorus! The hook! The part that got everyone on their feet! The fella is totally hooked on her. **"I can't stop how I feel!"** He's in love, and he doesn't want to stop feeling the way he feels! It's a mutual affection, like a perfect harmony, and he's completely lost in it!
So, what's the story here? "Can't Stop" is all about that earth-shattering, game-changing love! That kind of love that makes you see the world in a whole new light! It's about that connection that makes you feel like you can't stop grooving!
That's all for today! This is Gail Nobles podcasting off for now! Thank you for listening to Post Recordings.
