Tamia’s “So Into You” is a slick R&B love song about being crazyy in love with someone and wanting to be around them.
The Canadian singer brings a gentle touch to the record, letting her voice carry the emotions without making the song feel overdone. However, there is more to this classic than its romantic message. The production comes from Tim Kelley and Bob Robinson, the duo known as Tim & Bob, while Quincy Jones also receives a producer credit.
“So Into You” appears as track two on Tamia’s self-titled debut album. The song also samples the Commodores’ “Say Yeah,” which explains why Lionel Richie and Ronald LaPread appear among its songwriters. Mario Winans contributes background vocals, adding another layer to Tamia’s lead performance.
The song connected with R&B audiences and reached number seven on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. It also peaked at number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100. Years later, its simple message of affection still makes it a fitting choice for romantic playlists and late-night listening.
Listen to “Tamia – So Into You” again and tell us, does this classic still give you those romantic feelings?
