Given constant radio airplay, plus immortalization in movies such as “The Hunchback Of Notre Dame,” “Space Jam,” “Mi Familia,” “Despicable Me,” “Earth To Echo,” “Just Friends,” “The Social Network” and “Nothing To Lose,” amongst others, it made for nearly 90 minutes of perpetual hits and harmonies, backed by pre-recorded instrumentation. “I Can Love You Like That” introduced it all as one of many mega ballads, quickly prompting faithful to sing along, while “I Turn To You” was technically made most famous by Christina Aguilera, but make no mistake, All-4-One cut it first. The guys brought it back to the very beginning for an a cappella treatment of “So Much In Love,” and a bit after, really turned up the heat throughout the old school bounce of “(She’s Got) Skillz” and the soulful inspiration of “Someday.” Covers were also sprinkled in between, from Earth, Wind &amp; Fire’s funky “September” to a medley featuring similar period peers, including Boyz II Men’s “Motownphilly,” Tony! Toni! Toné!’s “Feel’s Good,” Ini Kamoze’s “Here Comes The Hotstepper,” Montell Jordan’s “This Is How We Do It” and Bell Biv DeVoe’s “Poison” when the stars bounded around the entire room and frequently snapped selfies. <figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0WKvGp_0wOjfYIN00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0WKvGp_0wOjfYIN00" width="267" height="400" ></figure>However, All-4-One’s rendition of the David Foster-produced “I Swear” arguably beat them all, not only as a top-selling “Guinness World Records” staple, but as yet another ageless example of lifelong commitment for City Winery to savor.
