: ※ 引述《prexceed ()》之銘言：
: :   Evolution was released in 1997 to mixed reviews and sold two million copies,
: : far below II's 12 million and Cooleyhighharmony's 9 million. Only one of
: : Evolution's singles, the Jam/Lewis-penned "Four Seasons of Loneliness", made
: : it to #1. The second single, the Babyface-helmed "A Song for Mama" (the theme
: : song to the Babyface-produced film Soul Food) was a Top 10 hit, but the
: : follow-up "Can't Let Her Go" underperformed.
: : While on tour to support the Evolution album, Wanya Morris developed a polyp
: : on his vocal cords, and the group was forced to postpone part of the tour
: : until he recovered. Meanwhile, Michael McCary was diagnosed with rheumatoid
: : arthritis, which limited his ability to dance at live performances; the other
: : three members eventually resorted to having McCary seated on a stool while
: : they did all the dancing themselves.
:         Evolution在1997年發行，得到褒貶不一的評價，也僅售出兩百萬張，遠
:     低於專輯II的一千兩百萬張及Cooleyhighharmony的九百萬。這張專輯裡只有
:     一首Jimmy Jam與Terry Lewis譜寫的單曲"Four Seasons of Loneliness"拿
:     下排行榜冠軍。第二支單曲、Babyface之作"A Song for Mama"(Babyface製作
:     的電影Soul Food之主題曲)進到排行前十名，再之後的"Can't Let Her Go"則
:     是成績相當不理想。
:     在巡迴宣傳這張專輯時，Wanya Morris聲帶長出息肉，團員不得不將部份行程
:     延期等待他康復。就在同一時間，Michael McCary被診斷出類風濕性關節炎，
:     限制了他在現場表演的舞蹈動作；之後其餘三個成員只好讓McCary坐在凳子上
:     ，以三個人完成所有的舞蹈演出。
Four Seasons of Loneliness這首歌我覺得非常好聽
不輸前兩張專輯中的那幾首暢銷曲
本來看好它應該也會蟬聯好幾個禮拜
沒想到這首歌只在冠軍坐了一週
馬上就被艾爾頓大叔紀念黛妃的單曲擠掉
真是身不逢時啊
