Her professional music career began singing lead for an R&B group called The Boys Next Door. The group signed with Jermaine Jackson's label Work Records, which later folded.[1] Tyler eventually signed with RCA Records and released her debut album Girls Nite Out. She co-wrote the lead single "Whatcha Gonna Do" which peaked at #3 on the Billboard R&B chart. The 1990 follow-up single "Girls Nite Out" topped out at #6 on the Billboard's R&B charts, as well as #6 on its Pop charts.
Collins songwriting came to the forefront for her second album Tyler, which was a decidedly more pop-oriented effort than Girls Nite Out. The set featured standout the singles "It Doesn't Matter" (co-written by Siedah Garrett) and "Just Make Me The One". Tyler has also written songs for Celine Dion, Shanice, and Jeffrey Osborne.
She also took part in the group recording Freedom (Theme From Panther) in 1995 featuring scores of young female R&B artists including Aaliyah, En Vogue, TLC, and others. Also in 1995, Tyler Collins recorded Never Alone (Eeyore's Lullaby) for the Winnie the Pooh tribute album. Take My Hand: Songs from the Hundred Acre Wood; it reached #48 on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks.
Her work with Prince lead to a solo recording contract at Warner Bros. Records. Though a full length release never materialized, the deal did yield Collins' recording of the Top 20 Adult Contemporary song "Thanks to You", the theme song to the Paramount Pictures' film Andre. A music video for the song is included at the end of the movie.
Apart from her singing career, Collins has also appeared in several television shows and motion pictures. She played the role of Tina in the 1991 film A Rage in Harlem, starring Gregory Hines and Forest Whitaker. She also starred in another film entitled Why Colors? and played her highest-profile role as Cinderella on an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Second Chance
Tyler Collins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I know I was wrong
I know we belong together
Look, this is kind of hard
For me to say to you
But I want you back, please
Just give me a second chance
I'm tired of living alone
The single life is not for me
Like a fool, I asked you for my freedom
I didn't think you'd leave so easily
Saw you just the other day
You were walking hand in hand
With someone new
It took me by surprise
And then, I realized
How much I needed you
[Chorus:]
A second chance for us
The second time could be better, baby
A second chance for love
This time around
We could make it, baby
Turn back the hands of time
To the days when you were mine
Ooh, we were so happy together
I never thought that I would
Swallow my pride
Now you're here
So please stay the night
I promise I will make it up to you
Don't ever go away
This love we've got to save
Cause no one else will do, no one
[Chorus:]
I'm trying to live my life without you
But I couldn't make it on my own
No, I just can't go on like this, baby
And spend another night alone
Oh, oh, yeah, ah, ah, yeah
I'm not meant to live alone
Why you being so difficult
You know you want me back
Come on, baby
Why you wanna treat me like that
I'm trying to live my life without you
But I couldn't make it on my own
No, I just can't go on like this, baby
And spend another night alone, oh, oh
[Chorus:]
Oh, yeah, come on, baby
Love me like this
I just want to feel your kiss
Love me like this

Is that Michael's eye in the profile?
Charles Mosley
@starkid77 it is. i cropped it (and reversed it) from the Dangerous album cover. i heard an audio recording where Michael criticized it saying that his eyes were "not that perfect."
