**Introduction**
Full Circle is the fifth album released by Boyz II Men, it was released on 11th June 2002. Collaborators include Rob Jackson, Faith Evans and the songwriting credits of Babyface for the lead single Color of Love and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Full Circle was also the last album Michael McCary recorded in the group.
**Full Circle**
1.) Relax Your Mind" (featuring Faith Evans)
This track opens with a soft piano and Wanya Morris' vocals. This is a laid back duet with Faith Evans which is a ballad with a slight hip hop feel. It is very well done and opens the album very well. The piano provides great backing throught the song.
2.) The Color Of Love"
This is one of their best ever tracks and is amazing live. A beautiful ballad about Love with the video shot all around the world. A fantastic ballad that is brilliantly sung by all four members of then group.
3.) Ain't A Thang Wrong" (featuring Rob Jackson)
Ain't A
thang wrong starts off with a talking intro from rapper Rob Jackson and then develops with Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman each singing small parts. A good mid tempo hip hop track.
4.) Oh Well"
This is one of their most beautiful ballads. A song about love and regret. This really is an incredible song which is sung beautifuly. The song moves gently until an eruption at the end when Wanya Morris sounds incredible.
5.) Whatcha Need"
Another mid tempo hip hop track on offer here and this is one of their best tracks of this kind. It starts with a dramatic piano and string background and then the beat kicks in. The track is about telling someone you love that you have what they need not someone else.
6.) On the Road Again"
This is a fine track that parks itself inbetween a ballad and a hip hop track. The track starts with a good beat and is then joined by gentle guitar. Nathan Morris starts the vocals off with an emotive growl. This is one of the best tracks on the album which features superb vocal harmonies as you would expect from Boyz II Men.
7.) Roll Wit Me"
This is a funky hip hop track which features lots of keyboards sounds. This is a very catchy track which has a great flow and is one of the best uptempo tracks on Full Circle as it has such a great flow to it.
8.) Right on Time"
This is a lovely ballad that starts with gorgeous guitar reminiscent of Curtis Mayfield. This is one of the best sung tracks they have ever done and that is saying something. Nathan sounds amazing with his gorgeous falsetto. Nathan's bass tones add a great feel to the track. This is such a great romantic song.
9.) Howz About It"
This is an midtempo track which has a great flow and feel to it, It is very catchy and moves so well through the track. One of the best midtempo tracks that they have done. A really enjoyable versatile track.
10.) That's Why I Love You"
Another gorgeous ballad here and this is one heck of a great track. Wanya sounds so efforless it is bound to give you bouts of jealousy. This is a superb slow track about appreciating someone and giving them the reasons why you feel so grateful. more songs should have this format.
11.) I'm OK, You're OK" Produced by King True Entertainment
Another ballad that has a slight hip hop feel. This is also a very fine track indeed and although not quite the best track on the album it is still a great one to listen to many many times. One of the best they have done liike this.
12.) Luv N U"
This starts off with some nice gentle strings and then develops with a guitar and Shawn Stockman's gentle vocals. This is about the moment between a man and woman when they start getting it on. A lovely romantic track which should be played when you are having a romantic evening in.
13.) I'll Show You"
This is another lovely ballad. Nathan Morris opens the track with a great falsetto and then the song develops with a nice drum beat and the piano and strings in the background. This has a great middle and great ending.
*Bonus Tracks*
14.) Woman Don't Cry" (Japanese Bonus Track)
This is a wonderful ballad which starts with keyboard and a drum beat. Nathan Morris opens the track and this is well worth the addition to the album. This track shows how well they sing both individually and together. Fabulous.
15.) You're My Baby" (Japanese Bonus Track)
The second of the bonus tracks is also a stunning track. This track opens with a spoken intro from Michael McCary. This ballad has a great feel and although it doesnt go as far as That's why I love you it does have that kind of feel to it. A wonderful track.
**Overall**
This is their fifth album of seven worlwide but nine altogether. Full Circle is one of their best albums and there are times when I can listen right through this album a couple of times in a row. I can't wait for their upcoming album which is due out later this year which is as yet unnamed.
