"Strawberry Letter 23" is the fifth single from R&B singer Tevin Campbell's debut album T.E.V.I.N.. The song didn't gain much charts success as it did for The Brothers Johnson or as much success as Tevin's previous hits only peaking at #53 on the Hot 100 and #40 on the R&B charts. Two of the main differences between the original and the Tevin Campbell remake is that (1) Campbell's version is more up-tempo, and (2) his version also includes a rap that mentions "the letter 23."

Famous quotes containing the words campbell and/or version:

    O Star-eyed Science! hast thou wandered there,
    To waft us home the message of despair?
    —Thomas Campbell (1777–1844)

    It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
    The fragrance of the woman not her self,
    Her self in her manner not the solid block,
    The day in its color not perpending time,
    Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
    The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
