- Cousin to Al B. Sure!, Christopher Williams (born Troy Christopher Williams on August 22, 1967) produced numerous R&B hits during the new jack swing era of the late 1980s and early 1990s. He is also known for having dated Halle Berry and Stacey Dash, the latter whom he has a son (Austin) with. His eldest son, Justin Hylton-Williams, is following in his father's footsteps as an executive in the music industry. In a 2010 interview with MTV, Christopher expressed his desire for Justin to begin his own singing career; siting his son's incredible voice and ear for music.
He released his debut album, entitled Adventures in Paradise, in 1989. The singles "Talk To Myself" and "Promises, Promises" reached the R&B Top 10, and Christopher's powerful voice helped him stand out among his peers. In 1991 he appeared alongside Wesley Snipes and Ice-T in the movie New Jack City. He contributed to the movie's soundtrack with "I'm Dreamin'". It would become Christopher's biggest hit, reaching number one on the R&B chart. His next album, 1992's Changes, produced more hits with "All I See", "Every Little Thing U Do", and a cover of the Teddy Pendergrass classic "Come Go With Me".
Changes would be followed up with Not a Perfect Man in 1995 and Real Men Do in 2001. Since then, he's been appearing in plays such as "Men Cry in the Dark".
- Christopher Williams is a touring folk artist from Nashville. During the past several years, Williams has opened for, and in some cases accompanied on djembe and vocals, such performers as David Wilcox, the waifs, Peter Himmelman, Patty Larkin, the subdudes and Arlo Guthrie, in a wide array of venues ranging from Boston’s Sanders Theatre to Nashville’s Bluebird Café to San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall. He’s also brought his music to the main stage at many of the nation’s folk festivals, including New York’s Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, Colorado’s Rocky Mountain Folks Fest, Texas’ Kerrville Folk Festival, and Oklahoma’s Woody Guthrie Festival.

Christopher Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come on over to my place
I don't feel like bein' lonely tonight
You see, I want, I want some company
And you look like you're just my type
You're the kind, you're the kind
Whose spirits are runnin' free
Let's take a sip of some cold, cold wine
And dance to the music nice and slow
And you won't be under any kind of pressure
You see, we'll just let, we'll just let the evenin' flow
Come on and go with me
I'd sure like that, baby
Come on over to my place
It would be so nice, it would be so good
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place
You look like you're just bored to death
And you wanna get away
You wanna get away from this noisy crowd
Let's go where it's nice and quiet
Where there's nobody, there's nobody else around
Let's sit by a cozy lit fire
And we can be in each other's company
Now how does that sound to you?
You see?, cause it sounds so good
It sounds so good to me
Come on and go with me
Would you do that, baby?
Come on over to my place
Would you do that, baby?
Would you do that, baby?
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place
My car's right outside, we can leave right now
That's if you're ready to go
I know you're just beatin' me
You see, I'd understand it
I'd understand it if you said no
But don't you do it, baby
Come on and go with me, come on, baby
(No)
Come on over to my place
(No, not tonight, no)
You see it's not far from here
(I believe you)
Would you just take a minute and think about it?
(Oh, man)
Would you just think about it, think about it? Yeah
(I'm thinkin' about it but I really have to say no)
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place
(No, I know)
You're sittin' here, you've been sittin' here for quite a long time
(Yeah, I'm slightly bored, I hate bein' bored)
See, I've been watchin' you
(I've been doin' the same thing)
I've had my eyes on you
(I've been checkin' you out all night long)
You look so nice and you look so sweet
(Oh, thank you)
Come on and go with me
(That was sweet)
You look like you oughta be with me
Come on, over to my place
(Yeah, but what are you gonna with me? That's the problem)
Seems that you feel the same way I do
(I think it would pretty interesting)
It seems that you need some company, too
(Oh, boy)
Yeah
Come on and go with me
(You said your car is right outside, right in front)
Come on, over to my place
(And you're gonna bring me home after)
But would it be all right with you?
Come on and go with me
If we left here and we went somewhere else, baby
(Come on over to my place)
Somewhere where it's nice and quiet, nice and quiet
(That's nice, yeah, that sounds a little better than this place)
Where we could sit down by a cozy lit fire
We could sip a little wine, work things out
(Oh, yeah)
Come on and go with me, work things out
(Well, I cannot stay long)
Come on over to my place
(We got an hour, no more than that)
Lady, you won't be under any kinda pressure
(Please, I cannot stand pressure)
I wouldn't do that, baby? No
(Okay, well, would you get my coat?)
See, I wouldn't do that, baby
See, I just wanna sit down
And get to know you a little better
(Okay, just for a little while)
I swear you look so good to me
(Are you gonna pay for my drink?)
Come on over to my place
You look so good to me
The lyrics in Christopher Williams's song Come Go With Me tell a story of a man who is looking for companionship and sees a woman who looks like his type. The man invites the woman over to his place and offers her a sip of some cold wine with some music, at a pace that suits her. He assures her that she will not be under any pressure and that they will just let the evening flow. The man offers to take her away from the noisy crowd and find a quiet place where they can be in each other's company. Williams emphasizes the man's need for her company and how good it would be to have her over. The woman initially refuses, but later accepts and agrees to sit down and get to know him better. The lyrics showcase the essence of companionship and how sometimes what one needs is just a good company, a good bottle of wine and good music.

@MrQueenmeca Not true! They already moved onto Hip Hop Soul then. i.e Jodeci
Mz.Oh!
@stephanie bridges it was live so they had to be quiet
MrQueenmeca
That's why it wasn't aired. People back then wanted to hear New Jack Swing music. They wasn't ready for that.
