In other Babyface news, he’ll be releasing his new album “Return of the Tender Lover” in the coming weeks. Their appearance on this song is prior to their debut album “Cheers 2 U” which would release in 1998. Also featured on the remix are the r&b group Playa, who were part of Davante Swing’s Da Bassment clique alongside Timbaland in the early 90’s.

The remix of the song is some of Timbaland’s earlier work, created during the same year when he contributed his timeless production to Aaliyah’s “One in a Million” album.

The remix however, was not included on the album or even the CD single for the song, it was actually a B-side on the CD single of Babyface’s hit “How Come, How Long” which was a duet with Stevie Wonder. The original was contained on the r&b legend’s 1996 album “The Day” and featured vocals from Mariah Carey and saxophone from Kenny G. Every time I close my eyes Every time I visualize The way that she holds me The way that she needs me Theres something in the way-ayy that she smiles. All he can feel now are the cold tears collapsing down his face. I see my baby every time I close my eyes And when my babys close to me my how time flies And if you knew my baby you would fall too. “Every time I Close My Eyes” was a huge hit song for Babyface, but the Timbaland produced remix of the song remains an obscure gem to this day. Dustin’s face slipping from his vision, the world around him caving in to the encapsulating darkness.
