Weak (SWV song)

"Weak" is an R&B ballad recorded by the girl group SWV for their debut album, It's About Time (1992). It was written and produced by Brian Alexander Morgan, who composed the lyrics based upon his feelings towards R&B singer Chanté Moore. Morgan originally wrote the song for Charlie Wilson, but he later decided to give the song to the group. Morgan revealed that Coko didn't like the song and gave him attitude during the recording of the single.

"Weak" was released as the third single from SWV's album, following the top-ten success of "I'm So into You". The song hit number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in July 1993 where it stayed for two weeks, and also reached number six on the New Zealand Singles Charts; it went on to become their signature song. It also topped the Hot R&B Singles chart for two weeks. It sold over one million copies domestically and was awarded a platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.

Teen singer JoJo covered "Weak" in 2004 on her self-titled debut album.

Weak (Melanie C song)

"Weak" is a song by English singer-songwriter Melanie C from her fifth studio album The Sea. It was released as the third single from the album on 6 November 2011. The song was written by Chisholm, Ina Wroldsen and Jez Ashurt and produced by Andy Chatterley.

Background and composition

"Weak" was a contrast from the previous dance-pop single "Think About It". "Weak" was described a stirring pop ballad that emotionally covered the range of emotions faced when you break up with a loved one. Reviews of the single were positive, "Entertainment Focus" stated "Weak is one of the highlights from The Sea and finds Melanie on fine vocal form. A slow-building beat backs Melanie’s distinctive vocals as she sings about being too weak to leave a relationship that is no good for her. The bridge is very powerful with Melanie’s vocals sending shivers down your spine as she lets rip". The single was placed on the BBC Radio 2 "A-list Radio Playlist". Melanie C performed the song on The Sea – Live tour.

Lagwagon

Lagwagon is a Californian punk rock band originally from Goleta, just outside Santa Barbara, California. They formed in 1990 and went on hiatus and reunited several times over the years. Their name comes from the band's tour van, which can be seen on the back cover of their 1994 second album Trashed.

The band has 10 releases through Fat Wreck Chords: seven studio albums, one EP, one live album and a collection of B-sides, compilation tracks and demos. Lagwagon has never had, nor have they seemed to pursue, strong mainstream success, but they do have a devoted underground following in North America, Europe and Asia. Their moderate success reflected a growing interest in punk rock during the 1990s, along with fellow California bands Rancid, Green Day and The Offspring.
