Shanice [1992] - Don't Wanna Love You [Arista / La Face #73008-26006-2]


As far as I'm aware this was only released on the 'Boomerang' soundtrack in 1992. It was sandwiched between her two biggest hits 'I Love Your Smile' in 1991 (for which she was nominated for a Grammy for Best R&B Female Vocal) and 'Saving Forever For You' (from another soundtrack 'Beverly Hills 90210') in 1992.

It's a good, early 90s swing tune. For some reason I keep thinking of Color Me Badd's 'I Wanna Sex You Up' when I hear it, which sampled Betty Wright's 'Tonight's The Night' and Brothers Johnson's 'Strawberry Letter 23's (written by Shuggie Otis), but it's much better than that, I guess it's the rhythm thats similar.

Another curious fact is that it appears to have been released only in UK on vinyl, all other issues are CD.
