“On Bended Knee” is a 1994 number-one hit single by Boyz II Men for the Motown label. Written and produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, the single is notable for having replaced the previous Boyz II Men single, “I’ll Make Love to You”, as the top song on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
