@VirgoWunder I agree.Just leave it as is.This song is a little bit weird and experimental if you listen closely with its swashes of electronic noises and the odd second vocal.I think the sudden ending is just a part of the songs experimental nature.It doesn't bother me.I always wanted to know who it was singing with her ? The album credits don't say.This is one of my favorite songs from Meshell.
@TRANZEURO Joe Henry sings with her on this track. Also, on the Japanese release of this album, there is a bonus track which is the SOLO AND COMPLETE version (without the abrupt ending) of this song. Sounds completely different.
I love the ending, more than just an entrance to another connected song, (it seems), it's a message that I don't think many people don't (or aren't willing to) understand. That ending is perfection to me. Gorgeous song by one of the most gorgeous human beings to ever grace the planet.
No harm but that is how the song is meant to end! it like how you wasted time loving someone and it just ends. the last word hear is "Broken" which is at which point she cant continue to sing because it hurt to much to think how much time is waste trying to mak people something you want them to be. Its a dramatic break. making it fade out is going to diminish the quality of the song and that is not acceptable.
best appreciated in a dark room,glass of wine...preferably playing very loud.don't worry abt depression just put on cookie the mixtape+let yr sorrows be washed away.Meshell rules...thank u!
This is the only song i can listen to at any time of the day on repeat and still feel like im listening to it for the first time. It brings back a memory of a huge fight with the love of my life and him surprising me in the middle of the night with flowers. I was listening to this on repeat when he came in. We made love to it for hours. When I look back at it, I miss that night so much. This is definitely our love song <3 8.25.09 <3 K+E!
if there isn't a version with a "correct ending" then could you make a video like this one, where the song fades out? you don't have to, but if you have time i would really appreciate that! it would sound much better than the way it does now, where it just randomly cuts off.
@XxoREDoxX no that is the way that the song ended. I just want to know who is singing with her, in my heart I know it is Prince and part 2 of the song is on his album and the name of the song is wasted time it is on the Cd I will give you a hint the album came out in June of 1998 and it is the last song on the album song 49 oh well I want to give you the name of the album but I want you to find it and hear it and let me know what you think please.
@atyniab I looked at a few things and I found the song your talking about. Is it called wasted kisses?
However, I can't seem to find a way to listen to it. But its nice to hear that I dont have the 'incorrect' ending. That gets a bit annoying (; thanks for your comment :)
@XxoREDoxX --I love this song and the one, You made a fool of me. I just dicovered her with watching SUTUCD .. love that show and yes they do have the best music. I just LOVE her!! Very mellow listening but can be sad as well ... even thogh the ending is not that great I still enjoyed the upload so thank you!! AWESOME SONG :)
@goldust8 that is just how they did it in the recorded cd......i think it has something to do with the stroy of the song....just stopped it...because it was too painful...i think :)
@trishham i know that's the way it's supposed to be, but it really is annoying, especially when you listen to so many other songs. if i have time i will eventually upload a version of this song, where the ending fades out instead. it's not that hard, but the only problem is i have to put this song on a cd first to do it... so it might be a while. i don't like wasting cd's like that.
this song is so beautiful and amazing. i mean come on, wasted time on someone who wont love you, thats deep! it makes me wish i had someone to hold me. <3
I can relate. Fell in love with a boyfriend freshman yr. in high school and I'm still madly in love with him. It's crazy because we're still friends... He still doesn't feel the same way. It still hurts, but I've learned to live on and appreciate that he's still in my life... But yes, it hurts when you love someone who doesn't love you back... or worse, it kills your heart knowing the one you love loves & is in love with someone else
wasted time on someone who won't love you as much as i-
most powerful line in the song
this song is not about you've wasted your time on loving someone it's about that someone wastng their time on someone who will never love them as much as yu did
-i miss my first love so much im only 14 with a broken heart not cool . and if he just new he was wastin his time with that girl beause i was enough . . . i guess i never new i needed yu this much LOVE
this song explains exactly what i'm going thru right now. i was really great friends with this guy, and he told me all the wonderful things i wanted to hear, about how he supposedly felt about me. so i fell for him. and now, he acts like he never said how he felt for me, and he acts like he doesn't know i feel that way about him. i feel now its time for me to let him go, coz i'm only hurting myself tryin to stay being his friend, when he gave me hopes that we would be more... biggest ouch ever.
It is the guy who has no self respect or self-worth. Therefore they seek to hurt someone who loves them the most. They know NOT what LOVE IS! We can stand TALL & Be Proud!
yes and it was when they performed to this song that it gave it so much more meaning. this song tugs at my ♥ everytime i think weve all loved someone who didnt love us back./// check out "Fool of me" its from Love and BAsketball another meaningful song
wow i soooo enjoy this song-esspecially since im having this problem now......it touches me-its amazing*****wat would i do without music,dance,or drama
this song is like the story of my life.....its so sad...I cry when I hear it...I love dancing to it too...but I cant finish making the dance for it cuz I end up crying!!!! "( its horrilbe....I love this song...
Get ready. This song's going to have bunches of views and comments because of "So You Think You Can Dance"! :) That's the reason I looked at this one!
I love the way it just cuts off at the end and quickly begins the next track with "Grace" on the CD. A great follow up song to end the album with.
