I Like the Way (The Kissing Game)

"I Like the Way (The Kissing Game)" is a song recorded by American R&B group Hi-Five for their 1990 eponymous debut studio album. The song was written by Teddy Riley, Bernard Belle and Dave Way, and released as the album's second single on January 2, 1991, by the Jive label. It was a number-one pop song and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on May 10, 1991.[1] The video has an exceptionally large amount of dark colours and shadows in contrast to the light-hearted and bubblegum pop song that plays.
