Wow, this video..I admit it. Really good. Shows you how some men, no matter how beautiful, how successful, she is, will hurt you. Ashanti did it good with this song.
damn, that song and video is the shit. i couldn't help but cry at the end when he died. this was her best video yet. see we need more videos like this.
OMG! Did he die! This was her best video in her career my fav. part is 7:09 i love her voice tone wen she and get out also 7:50 if he do dat shut again i will kill him! even though he did die that was sad .. ASHANTi good cryin.. ashanti is a great singer and actor i know one thanq she need to get back in the game and hurry it up ... it seem's like she releases a album .. waits a year or two and come's back .. but the declaration was last year hope she comes bak this year or 2010 ! LOVE ASHANTi!!
I think this has to be one of the best vids as far as storytelling goes. It had a beginning, a middle, and an end. Not a video with images and scenes that ain't got shit to do with the song itself. Matter of fact, Ashanti always has some of the best videos, well the ones that have a bigger subject. She is majorly slept on! My fav part of the video is at 5:04 with the camera flash, I love how the camera cuts at the same time the beat is, and the flashes make it all the better. Great video!
I always want to make Larenz older than he really is...I guess cuz he's been acting for so long. He was only 27 in this vid, just like he was only 22 in Love Jones and I thought he was older than that back then, lol. He don't look old or anything (not at all), I guess it's just the way he carries himself.
damn i use to love dis song i had all of her cd's i neva they had a extended version of dis video all these years i'm bout to watch dis shit too lolz ill tell yall wut i think after im done
Hung out with Larenz bout 8 or 9 yrs ago in a club in Toronto, when he was shooting a movie here with Deborah Cox, he's a cool cat, totally down to earth.

I like this version, but Larenz Tate's Acting made Ashanti look like the title of her first single... Foolish. Don't get me wrong, she's a pretty girl, I like her music a lot, but she could brush up on the acting skills. On the other hand this video and song really take me back to when I first got with my ex boyfriend, what's sad is if we remained together, it would have probably ended like this relationship did
im glad i seen the extended version but i was upset at that chick cause she looked at ashanti like "yea bitch im wit ya man and what" 7:16 but then on this one its a explanation for that look haha she was sorry
Am in love with larenz tate he is such a good actor but my favorite movie from him hands down is love jones but damn this kind of makes me think of chris and rihanna such abuse.
Actually its an old song by Dionne Worrick from the early 70s called "walk on by"..but a couple of years later isaac hayes covered it. His version was used in the film "Dead Presidents" which starred Larenz Tate.

The woman is worshipped as some kind of demi-goddess and the man is just "along for the ride" with the glorious woman who can "upgrade" him at anytime. This spiel is a typical female fantasy. Tons of females dream about the same thing and see nothing dysfunctional about wanting a man to be "beneath" them. Making men jealous and fencing with men is a typical sick pasttime of the western female and she wonders why men no longer want her.
This extended version makes me cry everytime. Whoever directed this definitely has skill in cinematography, from the symbolism of the rain, thunder, snapshots of fire, even the pedestrian hand stop sign right before Lorentz's character gets killed. And I never knew Ashanti could act. .. .
Larenz Tate was my fav after Tyrin Turner Caine from "Menace II Society"! thats my shitt. lol but anyways yeah he look bomber then a ma'fucka! yall should go watch the show "South Central" back in 94 that show was good but it got canceled. The Bay Look Good With Or Without His Braids! lmaoo sexyass.
Thats my boi forreal. Larenz got swole ever since his "South Central" days. Ashanti , you look sexy than a mug girl. Beyonce aint got nothin on you. Def my #1 black princess.
that fake bitch beyonce can never sing a song like this or make a video like this!! i hate that ashanti is so much underrated because she is way better than wigonce!!
