The thing that really connected to me was the story. Of course, I felt passionate about it, the song is really simple. I was actually called into a meeting by the President of the label at the time, to convince me to not use it on the album, let alone use it as a single. “I have an interesting story about how “With You” ended up being on my record. “I knew there was something special about the song,” admits Terry in an interview with Urban Cutz magazine. The video for “With You” was executive produced by Anita Baker and directed by Blair Underwood, who made a cameo appearance. In 1991, Terry earned two Soul Train Music Award nominations: Single of the Year and Artist of the Year for “With You”. Terry has performed on the soundtracks to Gladiator starring Cuba Gooding, Jr., Tap starring Gregory Hines and King’s Ransom starring Anthony Anderson. The following year, Terry contributed background vocals on the single “Gotta Have Love”, from Yolanda Adams’s album More Than a Melody. The single, “When A Man Cries”, reached Billboards R&B Top 40. His debut album for that label was 1994’s Heart Of A Man. After leaving Epic, Terry moved over to Virgin Records.

“Everlasting Love”, was a number-six R&B hit. Billboard Hot 100, as well as the Top 10 on the R&B chart. Terry’s self-titled second album, released in 1990, included the single “With You” which reached the Top 20 of the U.S. Now, 30 years later, Terry is still basking in the glow of his biggest hit.

It was a staple slow jam and was in frequent rotation of weddings during the time. Just belting out those words in the perfect tenor voice that only hit R&B singer Tony Terry could, brings back good memories for many.
