Okay, here's the story. My husband and I watched a movie called, "Black and Blue" starring Mary Stuart Masterson and Anthony LaPaglia. Anyway, towards the end of the movie there is a song playing on the radio and I'm pretty sure I've heard it before but for the life of me I can't find it anywhere on the Internet. Some of lyrics are as follows...

{beginning of song} Mmmm Girl you don't how I feel. Babe you got to know my love is real. If you are unsure and questioning, I'll give you all my love and that's how it's going to be. You are the one I need come rain or shine, just give me the time and I'll make you mine. You are the one. Girl I know you've been hurt before, somebody like you deserves more. So baby take a chance, try thinking with your heart. Come take my hand and we'll never be apart. You are the one I need come rain or shine. Just give me the time and I'll make you mine...

This is the only part of the song that is sang in the movie and I have tried searching for the verses and have had no luck. I even checked the credits at the end of the movie and there is nothing listed. If anyone recognizes the lyrics, I would be extremely thankful if you could tell me the name of the song and the artist.

Thanks in Advance:)
Diana

Come rain or come shine by (a lot of artists). Since I haven't seen the movie, all I can do is guess that it was by BB King and Eric Clapton. Also, Duke Ellington, Frank Sinatra, and Ella Fitzgerald to name a few.

Try Ray Charles. Black and Blue's a oldie but a goodie. Cheers, Tom

Hi. Thanks guys, I went to Youtube but that is not the correct song or artist. Let me see if I can give you more to go on. I bought the movie so here are some facts as taken from the back of the DVD case...

"Based on the "Oprah Book Club" selection by Anna Quindlen, Black and Blue is a dramatic story that examines the fear and cruelty that surrounds domestic abuse. Frannie Benedetto (Mary Stuart Masterson) and her son Robert have fled their former home and move into a new neighborhood far away, adopting new identities in an effort to normalize their lives. They are fleeing from Robert's father Bobby (Anthony LaPaglia) who position as a respected, police detective prevents them from reporting his abusive nature to the authorities. But just as Frannie and Robert have managed to settle into their new community, making friends and finding hope, Robert's curiosity about his father may create an opportunity for Bobby to track down his former family and make them pay for fleeing him".

The movie came out in 1999 and I watched the ending credits but it does not mention the song nor does it say anything on the case. The lyrics that I first posted are exactly as it is sung in the movie before switching scenes. I believe it is sung by a black artist and it sounds as if it was a song that was current in the time (1997-1999). I first thought maybe the song title was, "You Are The One", because it is repeated many times but upon searching for those words, I come up with 50 million songs (figuratively speaking) with that title.

I hope this helps a little more. I will continue my search as well, thank you so much for your time in helping me find this song.

Take care,
Diana

I am looking for the same song. Have you had any luck finding out who sings it? The song is also in the movies deadly pursuit, mother may I sleep with danger and a child too many. Let me know if you've had any luck.

Hello, how are you? Unfortunately no, I have had no luck finding the information for this song. I even offered a $10 prize for anyone that could get me the correction information but still a no go:mad:

I have looked for over almost a year now.

I can tell you this is a black artist, I have heard his songs before but cannot come up with his name. I can tell you it is much older than the 90s, more like from the 60's maybe 70's. But I am looking adimitly and will let you know if I find it.

I too am searching for this song, I heard it on the hallmark movie; The Note II: Taking A Chance On Love. I thought that it might be a song by Van Morrison. But, not knowing the name, I find it difficult to search the artist.

I have looked for this song for hours and hours. I just heard it again in a dance scene in the movie.. A Touch of Hope it showed on LMN today. 10.8.09... I agree it is a black artist. Surely someone will come up with the answer soon.

I'm kimneek, I've been looking for this song 4 ever if any one finds it hit me up on my space... please

Did anyone ever figure this out? I emailed Lifetime Movie Network... waiting to hear back from them. If anyone knows the answer, please share. Thanks!

Hey TB$, did they finally answer you?

Could the song be "Back At One", by Bryan McKnight?
