This song was originally written for and released by country artist John Michael Montgomery in 1993 from his album Kickin’ It Up. Montgomery’s version did quite well on the US Hot Country Singles & Tracks Chart spending 4 weeks at the No.1 spot.
The country hit caught the attention of Atlantic Records who thought the song had a huge crossover potential and wanted Montgomery to record a pop version but his label wanted to avoid upsetting the country radio stations so Atlantic had their new vocal group All-4-One record the song instead. And that was all she wrote.
All-4-One’s version was one of the biggest hits of 1994, spending eleven weeks at No.1. on the US Billboard Hot 100. It also did well internationally, staying at No.1 for six weeks on the Australian Singles Chart and reaching No.2 in the UK Singles Chart for a consecutive seven weeks. The hit single also won a Grammy Award in 1995 for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and was certified gold by the RIAA.
So here's I Swear by All-4-One to take you into the weekend guys.
