Both good songs.
But, MJB's is still a kick ass song.

I think it's hilarious that "Too Close" is explicitly about getting a boner while dancing. Like, that's such a great fucking subject for a song.

Re: R1: Too Close v Family Affair
Both of these songs are great (easily the strongest match-up in this round), however I'm voting for Family Affair.

Re: R1: Too Close v Family Affair
disappointed in you guys. 'too close' is one of the best r&b songs of the 90s. it also came out when i was in middle school, so i really related to the lyrics
