Would also add the lyrics to YANA are very banal. It's the kind of lyrics I would have written in my teens using a rhyming dictionary. Apart from 'Your burdens I will bear', I like that one. Plus I love recreating Michael's face and hand movement when he sings that. The Cry lyrics are also kind of sketchy. R Kelly is supposedly illiterate, which you can definitely tell in his lyric writing.
Despite the lyrics, Cry is the best of the 3 tracks. OMC is the worst - very average.
