Me either but I'm guessing the fact that Ciara was in it is a point of shame for her - it was certainly not publicised nor a hit (I dare someone to google it and then pretend they knew it was a hit movie all along :))

Them doing this in 1995 on 'Showstoppers' when the stage show was making a brief 'cult' visit to London's West End is akin to Simon Cowell claiming 'Crying' was a film song because of 'Gummo'. True but at best bending the rules.

Not a well-known song then or now, but a great performance by Eternal (plus a cast member in the intro) and a chance to show that Kéllé could sing very very very very very very very very very high. Barry Gibb would be jealous.

I love Easther and Vernie's voices too but Kéllé's the only one that could possibly have gone that high!

Just shows what a range and how much versatility Eternal had, compared to other groups at the time and the groups out there today.

An Eternal comeback would never survive the glossy, commercialised, sugary pop scene now, but had things been different perhaps they could have been as formative now as they were back then...

Didn't anybody ever teach you to act more respectfully?
