Twisted

About Twisted

"Twisted" is a single by Keith Sweat released in 1996. It was the first song off his self-titled third album, Keith Sweat. R&B group Kut Klose and remix rapper Pretty Russ are also featured on the song. The radio version of "Twisted" omits Pretty Russ' rap before the final chorus, though some urban stations kept the rap verse. A second mix of the song, referred to as "Twisted (Flavahood Sexual Remix)", features a different backbeat sampled from Marvin Gaye's hit song, "Sexual Healing". "Flavahood" also saw significant airplay on radio but was never released on an album. Commercially, "Twisted" spent three weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 behind Los Del Rio's "Macarena", becoming Sweat's biggest pop hit. "Twisted" also peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Rhythmic Top 40, staying there for 14 consecutive weeks, the most amongst any song except TLC's "No Scrubs", which spent 15 weeks at the top position. Outside the US, "Twisted" topped the New Zealand Singles Chart for six weeks and became a top-twenty hit in Australia and the Netherlands. In 2012 VH1 ranked the song at number 35 on their list of the "40 Greatest R&B Songs of the '90s". more »

Oh yeah, baby
You got to make your mind up
Yeah, Kut Klose, help me out

You know, you are my lover
You got me twisted over you
I know I got what you need
So what you wanna do

Baby, baby I know
Baby, I love you so
But you don't feel like I do
Tell me what can I do

But I gotta be strong, you did me wrong
When I thought we were really down
So you say, you want me girl, ooh
Make up your mind 'cuz I'm not gonna be here for long

You know, you are my lover
You got me twisted over you
I know I got what you need
So what you wanna do

Baby, baby in time
Baby, I know you'll find
That what you needed was here
Think about it my dear

But I gotta be strong, you did me wrong
When I thought we were really down
So you say, you want me girl, ooh
Make up your mind 'cuz I'm not gonna be here for long

You know, you are my lover
You got me twisted over you
I know I got what you need
So what you wanna do

Breaking up now, you got me twisted
Thinking about the way things used to be
When it was you and me girl, I was free
See you had my heart from the start

Like Cupid and I was just down right foolish and stupid
But now I know the reason for the pain and the headaches
You left me all alone now I can't even concentrate
I guess I'll wait for the day until you come back
Because my heart is where your love is at
You got me twisted

You know, you are my lover
You got me twisted over you
I know I got what you need
So what you wanna do

You know, you are my lover
You got me twisted over you
I know I got what you need
So what you wanna do
