A summer love is beautiful But it's not enough To satisfy emotions That are shared between us A winter love is cozy But I need so much more It just intensifies my wants To have a love that endures 'Cause every time I close my eyes I think of you And no matter what the season nears I still love you With all my heart And I wanna be with you Wherever you are I only think of you on two occasions. I do not own the rights to anything regarding the video or the music itself. I just simply enjoy them both, and I hope you do too.

'Two Occasions' is an R&B song written by Babyface, Darnell Bristol and Sid Johnson (who was the former manager for Babyface's early group, Manchild).[1] It was produced by Babyface and L.A. Reid for The Deele's third studio album Eyes of a Stranger (1987). The ballad was released as the album's second single in December 1987.[2] It's the only song on the album that features Babyface on lead vocals,[3] which alternate between himself, Bristol, and Carlos 'Satin' Greene throughout the course of the song. It has since been remade into a live version with added vocals from Babyface with all original vocals from The Deele intact; this version appeared on the 12' maxi single and also three years later on his album, A Closer Look.[4]

Reception[edit]

Craig Lytle, in his review of the album for AllMusic, called 'Two Occasions' a 'quiet-storm classic' with 'superb arrangement and production', declaring the song 'worthy of a number-one ranking.'[3] In 1989, the song won a BMI Pop Award.[5]

Although the band's first hit 'Body Talk' actually had a higher placement on the R&B chart, 'Two Occasions' is widely considered The Deele's most successful single. It peaked at number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number four on the Hot Black Singles chart and number 21 on the Adult Contemporary chart.[2]

The song and Babyface were later referenced by Mariah Carey in her 2005 hit song, 'We Belong Together.'[6]

The song is also sampled in the 2009 hit song 'Want It, Need It' by Plies featuring Ashanti. It was also sampled in the song 'I Still Love You' by Next on their Rated Next album. Rap/hip hop artist Charlie Manhattan released his version of 'Two Occasions' in 2007, from his solo debut album The Manhattan Project.[7]

Faye Wong also covered the song in Cantonese, titled as 'Miss You Night and Day' found in her 1992 album, Coming Home.

A summer love is beautiful
But it's not enough
To satisfy emotions
That are shared between us
A winter love is cozy
But I need so much more
It just intensifies my wants
To have a love that endures

Two Occasions Babyface Lyrics

'Cause every time I close my eyes
I think of you
And no matter what the season nears
I still love you
With all my heart
And I wanna be with you
Wherever you are

I only think of you on two occasions
That's day and night
I'd go for broke if I could be with you
Only you can make it right

2 Occasions Babyface Movie

An autumn love is special
At this time of the year
But when the leaves are gone
Does that love disappear
I never underestimate the new love of spring
But I'm glad to say in my heart
I know my love's lasting

'Cause every time I close my eyes
I think of you
And no matter what the season nears
I still love you
With all my heart
And I wanna be with you
Wherever you are
