Who Do You Wanna Love? Eric Benét Or Jill Scott?

Today's Battle of the Beats finds two staples in my record CD collection going at it with their similarly-named love songs. Both Eric Benét and Jill Scott put their post-divorce relationship issues to song on their most recent releases with different results.

Taken from Hurricane, Eric sang to his new lady about taking a chance on new love on the single "I Wanna Be Loved," and he was no doubt getting some loving in the video. However, on "Wanna Be Loved" from The Real Thing, Jilly from Philly is singing her track to no one in particular and lamenting on her needing, burning and yearning to be loved. Interestingly enough, although it hasn't been released as single by Hidden Beach, Jill's track has been picked up by a few radio stations across the country and added to the rotation.

I got to wave my lighter in the air for both of these tracks, but although I can't pick a favorite, perhaps you can.
