"Choosey Lover" is a 1983 quiet storm soul song by The Isley Brothers. Released on their T-Neck imprint, the song was their second consecutive top ten R&B hit after their seminal "Between the Sheets" hit No. 3 on that chart. It was the second of two chart-topping singles the Isleys released off their aptly titled ''Between the Sheets'' album. "Choosey Lover" was also the last charting single to feature the ''3 + 3'' lineup of the band. A year later, younger brothers Ernie Isley (who played the memorable guitar solos on the song and co-wrote the lyrics), Marvin Isley and their brother-in-law Chris Jasper left to form Isley-Jasper-Isley while older brothers Ronald Isley, Rudolph Isley and O'Kelly Isley continued on under the "Isley Brothers" name. The song has similarities to the Earth, Wind & Fire song "Devotion". The song was covered by the late R&B singer Aaliyah in two styles—"Old School" and "New School", making up track 6 on her 1996 album ''One in a Million'', with the "Old School" section very closely resembling the original before transitioning into the "New School" section, which features more of a hip hop beat and feel. The song was sampled and redone to make "Buddah Lovaz", a song dedicated to marijuana, by Bone Thugs-n-Harmony & the remix to Street Dreams by Nas featuring R.Kelly. The song also has elements which have been used in Keith Sweat's Nobody ==Credits== *Ronald Isley: lead vocals *Ernie Isley: guitar, drum programming *Marvin Isley: bass *Chris Jasper: keyboards, piano, synthesizers *Ronald Isley, Rudolph Isley, O'Kelly Isley, Jr., Ernie Isley, Marvin Isley, Chris Jasper: background vocals *Produced, written, arranged and composed by The Isley Brothers and Chris Jasper 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Choosey Lover」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
