"'''Right Here/Human Nature'''" is the title of a number-one [[contemporary R&B|R&B]] single by the group [[SWV]]. It charted on the Billboard Chart as a double-A-side single with "Downtown". It samples [[Michael Jackson]]'s 1983 hit "[[Human Nature (Michael Jackson song)|Human Nature]]". The song spent ten weeks at number-one on the US R&B chart, the longest running number-one R&B single of 1993. It peaked at number 2 on the [[Billboard Hot 100]] and reached the top ten in [[Europe]]. |
|||
The original version of the song, which featured Taj rapping over the bridge, was released in the fourth quarter of 1992, but did not achieve the same success. It also features a young [[Pharrell Williams]] saying "SWV" during the song. |
|||
The song appears on the soundtrack and in the film ''[[Free Willy]]''. |
|||
==Music video== |
|||
The video begins with SWV riding horses on an island's coast. They proceed to do various things and have fun during the song. It shows them fishing, and kids dancing and playing instruments and ends with SWV riding their horses. Being that this song is featured on the soundtrack to Free Willy and is sampled from Michael Jackson's "Human Nature", there is an alternate version in honor of the two. It features killer whales, and clips of Michael Jackson performing "Human Nature" during the [[Dangerous Tour]]<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHvA9-YaH5A&feature=PlayList p=4BC6709C6E02BDE5&index=15</ref> |
