#NewMusic Cherish – One Time

R&B Group Cherish is back as a duo, with just sisters Fallon and Felisha King. Farrah and Neosha are said to still be a part of the group, according to a Facebook live Q&A from Fallon and Felisha (seen below).

In a song completely opposite of themselves, Cherish tries to convince a man who is in a relationship to have a one night stand.

“I know you saying that you faithful to your girlfriend / But you’ve seen it from the moment that you walked in / Let’s try, one night (oooh) / If you could only love me one time / I know that it might hurt but baby work for one night / It won’t be the worse if you let it happen one time,” they sing.

 

Originally a quartet of sisters, Cherish made their debut in 2006 with their hit “Do It To It.” The song peaked at no. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, and appeared on their debut album, “Unappreciated,” which is certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
