"4 Seasons of Loneliness " is a R&B and pop ballad recorded by Philadelphia -based vocal quartet Boyz II Men . Written and produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis , the song was issued as the first single from the Evolution album in 1997.
Already a success on US radio, the release of the single prompted a Billboard Hot 100 debut at number two. The following week the song moved up to number one, becoming Boyz II Men's fourth (and fifth overall) and last chart-topper to date. "4 Seasons of Loneliness" is, to date, the last Hot 100 number-one hit under the Motown Records banner.
