Boney James
Boney James, (born James Oppenheim, September 1, 1961) is a saxophonist, songwriter and producer.
In 2009 Billboard magazine named James the No. 3 Billboard Contemporary Jazz Artist of the Decade. Boney James is a four-time Grammy Award nominee (Best Pop Instrumental Album, 2001, 2004, 2014 and Best Traditional R&B Performance, 2009 ) and a Soul Train Award winner (Best Jazz Album 1998). He has also been honored with two NAACP Image Award nominations for Best Jazz Album. He has accumulated four RIAA Certified Gold Records.
According to the Boston Globe: "Let's make something perfectly clear: James is not a smooth jazz player. Yeah, he is often grouped with people like Kenny G and Najee, but his music is muscular and gritty, whereas most smooth jazz has all the texture and complexity of a cue ball...James swaggered across the stage like a blacktop hero draining treys on an overmatched opponent. He even weaved his way through the audience, never missing a beat and all but daring the crowd not to have a good time."

by: Boney JamesI think I can speak for all men when I say
There's something exceptional, unique, about a woman
Your cold, big smile, those pretty brown eyes
Like heaven, smooth skin, your hair in the wind
Them legs in those heels
That switch all in your wet girl
That sexy way you talk, girl
Like a Da Vinci painting, art girl
And I, if I can make you with a magic wand
I wouldn't make you no other kind of way
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
I wouldn't want you, couldn't have you other kind of way
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
Your body bath warms, them hips in that skirt
The smell of a fragrance with a taste of sweet kiss
The passion, the thrill, goosebumps and the chills
Thy wish is thy will and I'll do anything for you
See when it comes to you
I love the way it made you I wouldn't change one thing
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
See I, if I made you, I wouldn't change one thing
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
From head to toe, you were made for love
You were made for me
You were made from a spark to light up the world
With a man to have and hold, so forever for now
See, that's why I say now
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
If I made you, I wouldn't change a thing
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
See I, I know you were made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
By the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
You was made by the maker of love
