"I'll Make Love to You" is a 1994 number-one hit single by
R&B group Boyz II Men for the Motown label. The song, which
was written by Babyface, was the lead single from their second
album
II. It was at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for 14
weeks, from August 27 to November 26, 1994. The song set a
record for the most weeks at number one at the time (tied with
Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" from late 1992 to
early 1993). This record was later broken by "One Sweet Day", a
collaboration between Boyz II Men and Mariah Carey, which
remained at #1 on the Hot 100 for 16 weeks. "I'll Make Love To
You" also topped the U.S. R&B and adult contemporary charts
in 1994, and the single went Top 5 in the United Kingdom.
A platinum-selling single, "I'll Make Love to You" won the
1995 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or
Group with Vocals and two American Music Awards for Favorite
Pop/Rock Single and Favorite Soul/R&B Single.
The song is featured on the video game
Karaoke Revolution Volume 2.
The song ranks at #17 on
Billboard's All Time Top 100.[1]
The music video features a woman and a man. The man, whose
name is Dwayne, installs a security system in the woman's
house. She later invites him to have a drink, but he's busy. It
turns out that she really likes him, likewise as he likes her
too. In the end, he writes her a letter, she receives it and
reads it: it is a love letter, with the song lyrics.
Throughout the video, Boyz II Men appear in two sets of
white and beige clothes, white shorts and pastels over white
muscle shirts, shorts and track jackets over t-shirts with
green canvas shoes and no socks, dress pants and chest-bearing
open dress shirts, colorful suits with muscle shirts
underneath, all in different areas and landscapes.
