  • very special song.....reminds me of someone i knew in another life, another chapter. 143

  • I never comment online, but I had to for this. I was so mad when my cd got destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. Luckily, I found another one months later. This song is by far one of the best songs I've heard in my life! The beat is so infectious and the flow is so chill. THANKS RES! If you never do anything else in your life. You made this song (*=*)

  • One of my favorite songs that's ever been made. Countless drives through Malibu Canyon with this blasting with all the windows down. Sun shining. Singing along. Soundtrack to our lives....

  • every time ihear this song it gives me goosebumps. shes so awesomee

  • Gosh ive got to find this cd....i lost it after i moved... :(

  • RES was real Mccoy - N++++ and J+e_s at Universal messed up

  • I haven't heard this song since middle school! I love it

  • @lickmy8balls i lost my virginity to this song around the time i was in middle school. tammy, dat you? xD

  • I LOVE IT!!! It's Beautiful, Lovely.

  • I own over 5000 songs and this one is my absolute favorite. I just so true: at first love is great and then there is trouble, but if you stick it out the great part comes right back again...

  • Its called incorporation. Companies are not concerned about hyping up artists that have true artistry behind them such as Res. However, I will continue to enjoy her music.

  • Winter in Vancouver when this album dropped...precious memories <3

  • I remember listening to this entire album when it came out (I was 11 or 12). I would just lay around and imagine scenarios to each song. Best summer ever.

  • sometime you gotta dig to find a gem like this

  • Im mad they dont have this joint on iTunes!!!!!!!

    >:-|

  • @Kinghercules damn straight

  • @Kinghercules I'm glad first time i heard this song, ran right out to the used CD store and found one perfect copy waiting for me :)

  • man i love this song so damn much i would play it at a gang member meeting!! i would kill cats on call of duty with this song playing in the back ground! i would play this song to get hyped before a krump battle! haha.. i cant get krump though... im to uncoordinated and it hurts! hahahaha

  • @jprimitive:check her out on facebook

  • One of my FAVORITE singers of all time. This album is a MASTERPIECE.

  • said it before n il say it again. stunning song this!

  • OMG this song is so beautiful and real and full of soul. This kind of music you dont hear everyday but when you do it reminds you of what music nowdays is missing

  • I LOVE her music she has an amazing voice i wish more people would know about her but then again maybe it is a good thing she isnt out there like that because the industry might turn her into a typical artist that is barely dressed with horrible lyrics but her music is great and mellow

  • this song made me cry a little but this is my childood song and ive listened to res since the song first came out

  • This album was awesome!...but, everytime i look her up icant find any tour dates or new material.

  • beautiful song

  • I dont care how old this album is, I still love this song and would LOVE for her to make a video for this! #wishfulthinking

  • She was the only artist that i felt truly look into my soul when her album came out man idk where i would of been without her vision and words to effect me the way she did, since Res no other artist came close she truly does not get the props but that's okay i would not want her in that fake music industry anyway. Big Ups to REAL TRU MUSIC AND ARTISTS

  • Res has a new CD "Black.Girls.Rock! check it out on her website The1res.com

  • @zionah8 thanks for the hook up!

  • I wanna watch you as the sun lights up your eyes <333

  • Well said reg the last post "So true So True" I really love RES she has a wonderful voice and an interesting and diverse style in music. This is my Fav song on the "How I DO" CD... Never stop singing RES and being YOU :) moe

  • Very Talented I fell in love with her music in 2002. i was going through and Res took me to a better place when I needed the comfort of Music ..GREAT SONG!!!

  • man i love res! she is so underrated! it seems as if the most talented people are over looked by mainstream garbage. res forever!

  • ride this wave of mine...theres brighter things on the otherside....indeed...loved this song

  • She's A Superstar in my eyes and to my ears !! I love her voice! Thank You Res

  • if you have ever lost love real hard then absolutely do not listen to this!

    RES we miss you!

  • I know what you mean. I just can't stand to see other artist get the respect she deserves.

  • One of the best CDs in my music collection.

    Love this song.

  • I just saw Res perform live in DC. Her voice is amazing! Res is a Star waiting to be discovered by the masses.

  • i think she likes her underground true followers who really appreciate her and don't want to "share" her w/ the mindless top 40 masses. I know I don't want to share.

  • This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Cause your all the things that I need. Ride this wave of mine......

  • so beautifully written...gentle melody... this song makes me cry </3

  • love this...such light

  • .-Tearxx)

  • Mmm!

  • wow...this cd helped change my life

  • Classic. Im glad people still remember this joint. got me through back in the days. soul music

  • my dad used to play this song when i was younger.its funny how i still remember dha words/

  • I remember listening to this song on the USS Cleveland as I sailed to Iraq to fight in the first war. I used to listen to it FAITHFULLY every night and think about my XGF who cheated on me while I was getting shot at Fucking Bitch!!!!!

  • cool story bro

  • Damn dude that suck. This is why I stay single.

  • you thought she was going to go without dick? sucka

  • I love Res and this song. My fondest memory of this song was when I was riding downtown to my dad's apartment in a blizzard and I listen to it all the way there! RIP dad ::tear::

  • This song completely describes how i was feeling during my breakup. Beautiful song.

  • This song saved my life after the worse break-up.

  • what is she saying @242?

  • I think it's

    "So clear out the smoke, and usher in the light."

  • Lets get it over and done with and meet!!

  • I Love u RES u are really the truth!!!! I play ed my cd until it brokeand then i had to get another one...lol and if this one brakes i'm getting another..lol

  • I named my daughter after her "Zahmen Res" lol..... ride this wave of mine!!

  • I like her and morcheeba....they kind of got the same vibe.

  • Love it, her voice is soulful & melodic! Thank you for posting Res is a refreshing.

  • It's a shame she's an 'obscure' artist when she's so obviously talented. On top of being a soulful, subtle vocalist, with thoughtful lyrics, and beautiful music she is also dead gorgeous too.

    One thing that might work against however her is that she's not easy to categorise. She's a nineties throw-back - a time of greater diversity for black artists both in music and image.

    If you're not a Beyonce/Rhianna knock-off singing in the r n b/pop machine, there's no room for you in the industry.

  • @Takver U are soooo right. I actaully purchased her CD in 2001 and I still bang it today. My friends look at me funny and laugh....they could never understand her genius.

  • @Punky1021 same here this came out when i was 18 i always jammed this, same time period i got into N.E.R.D.

  • @Takver Santo gold wrote most of her songs. I think res needs a good song writer. Her newer stuff doesnt have thee same flavor to it..... this was such a GREAT CD!

  • @Takver

    If you want to her to make more music support her financially

    Through going to her concerts , paying for her music

    Not just her all artist you like

  • "Riiide this wave of miiinne" =]

  • i been a fan of Res, this album and of this song for years, but not until tha thing with my ex did i really feel this song...tha last verse is so deep and real that its crazy how easy it is to relate to it.

  • It's so incredible that fucking garbage like brittany spers and american ideal contestents get played on the radio and other outlets yet Res gets no push at all.

  • @MagicalOillusions

    how very very very tru...i calld a radio station to request this song....the Dj HAD NO IDEA WHO SHE WAS!!!!!!...i was like "and you calld ur self a Dj...Ha and Double Ha"

  • @MagicalOillusions correct

  • stunning song this

  • This song has always touched me. It perfectly decribes the emotional highs and lows of a relationship.

    Res was so origional as an artist. Its a shame she didnt get the credit she deserved

  • this song feels so good

  • I love this song a lot.

  • gotta love you Res...

  • all time fav

  • my favorite song on her album. I need a new CD mine is so old its scratching this song.

  • beautiful song

  • Oh damn!

    Love this damn song !

  • This is one of my most played songs on iTunes. Hands down my favorite Res song. She's sooooo talented!

  • I love her voice.

  • This has to be my favorite song ever...damn commercialism. Res should have a contract...

  • I Love Res for songs like this....just wow , props to whoever did production too..

  • This song will always remind me of being in LA driving down Santa Monica blvd to the Grove

  • me too !

  • true talent.blessed 2 have stumbled on her music.

  • I love this song.

  • Love love love RES!!!

  • OMG, I love this song!

    Then again, I love ALL of her songs.

    I can't wait until her new album comes out!!!

  • did it come out yet

  • I Luv Res! Anybody know if she got some new joints?

  • Listen to this song on her album, but when it's done, let it continue to play and you'll get a nice treat! There is another song called "Say it Anyway"!!!!

  • That song is kinda harsh.

  • Women are harsh what do you expect , an unstable women is like a thorn in a mans side and a dagger in his heart. It enter's easily but it is very hard to take out.

  • her album is the soundtrack to my life, its like shes spying on me. the second one two.

  • this might sound corny but her music speaks to my soul

  • OMG i love this song it's deep in lyrics

  • omg i luv this song one of my fav by her..another is 700 mile situation

  • I love the hidden track that comes right after Tsunami...

  • yea that's my fav part lol...

  • a great singer. and i would watch a video of nothing but her facial expressions.

  • O My God...this song is absolutely phenomenal. She is amazing. I cannot believe I am NOW finding out about this song. I'm floored.

  • Why isn't this song on itunes?

  • My wife and I made love to this song two days after the album came out in '01. Of course we were just dating then. The "How I Do" album is damn near the soundtrack to our relationship.

  • This album is PURE MAGIC, everything about it. By far it is my favorite R&B album of all time, and maybe my favorite album of all time. I've burned a hole in the CD listening to it. God bless you Res!!!

  • this song makes me cry!~

  • This is one of my favorite songs. This and Let Love. This cd is truly one of those cds that you can just play start to finish. Just hop in the car and cruise with the window down. Feel good music I like to call it. Like Sade.

  • We have been conditioned to listen to crap on the radio...Our ears can't appreciate great music when we hear it. The lyrics and vocals are tight and the music is simply amazing. This song has the ability to put a person in space where one understands that it is better to have loved and lost love...than to have never loved at all.

  • i love this song :) i played her album over and over and over when i finally got my own copy and gave my sister back hers..

  • I was sleeping on this song when I first heard the cd and when I re-discovered this song it shot to number 2 behind "ice king". Love it.

  • I killed her CD during my 10th grade year... People always asked me who was I listening to. So many people dont know about her... [[smh]] This CD gave me great writings.

  • If you have the album,listen to this song and let it play after it's over. There is another song after it! And it's cool!

  • It is a crime that not a lot of people know about her, I still dont understand how a talent like that can just slip under radar and not get the recognition that it deserves. C R I M I N A L!

  • She so enormously talented and sorely underappreciated.

  • one of my fav. songs by her.
