Tender Love

"Tender Love" is a song by Force MDs from their second album Chillin' (1985).

Although primarily known as a pre-new jack swing/old school hip hop band, the Force MDs introduced themselves to a whole new audience with this song.

Not only did the song reach number 4 on the R&B charts (where the group had already amassed a steady string of minor hits), but it also became a crossover hit, cracking the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 in the spring of 1986,[1] becoming the group's only single to date to break the Pop top 40.

[2] The song was also a hit in the United Kingdom, reaching number 23 in the UK Singles Chart.

The most widely known version was by English singer Kenny Thomas which reached number 26 on the UK Singles Chart in 1991.
