Chances are that you’ve heard or read about someone gushing over a “man crush,” the description of a guy whom you may or may not know that you would sop up with a biscuit and gravy if given a chance. It could be a hot co-worker, your neighbor across the way or a celeb you follow on Instagram just so you can scroll his feed and drool. That’s what the fabulous lady trio SWV is singing about—with lush 3-part harmonies no less—in the first single, “MCE (Man Crush Everyday)” from their upcoming fifth studio album, Still.
Built atop an aquatic slow groove that recalls past hits like “Rain”” and “Use Your Heart,” “MCE” captures the nervous awe and excitement one feels when infatuated with that special somebody: “You shot me down I go bang-bang,” sighs the chorus, and since so many of us can relate to this state of mind, SWV fans will certainly relate, download and repeat “MCE” before the whole new collection drops on Feb. 12.
