[Jessica656]

these songs better not be about cassie

[kbyer]

@Jessica656 Course it is! If it wasn't for her, it wouldn't exist!

[Jessica656]

@kbyer dammit

[mesha1718]

[perrotasdelmal]

tener 35 mill se te hace underrated.....

[Chaucer129]

[zaphiri1]

[Fourtunate2k11]

We can't wait to open the Ryan Leslie concert in Sydney on 16th July at the Sydney Town Hall!

Fourtunate

[1Rinna1]

this guy is SOOOO amazing

[boab23]

one of my favorite songs back in 2008 and still is.. ryan leslie has an amazing voice. thumbs up if you agree

[tvh315]

Love this version of the song!

[korveilmusic]

He's Too Good!!! That's why he's underrated. Industry want's Autotunes with mediocre lyrics.

[melodylovesyoutobits]

this is brilliant.

[TexasHasPoo]

he dances like diddy LOL

[justicemr]

IT'S A Beautiful Song..Im Inspired .

[TrezsMom]

such a cool song

[alexus2014]

I like this version better than the other one.

[maxima007100]

this track came out a min ago...but still sweet track....wish he`d come out with some more tracks

[0NELOOOVE]

ryyan leslie <3

[Yurious1]

R Les, you MUST put this version out.  And go a little heavier on the guitar and drums.

[harrisonheath20]

I prefer Harrison Heaths remake of it called lead the way

[samrione]

Rles, you do realize you are the best to ever do it right?

[iNeMesiis]

R-Les is legend ! thumbs uppp

[MissLiya04]

this version is a lot better than the other one because it has that hard rock feel to it, which makes it more heart-wrenching and dramatic!

[maridude]

you can call ryan leslie? HE'S THE COOLEST

[MrV0sje]

How come I haven't seen him on TV? He should be a star!:)

[JustLykeMusic]

I sure hope that this song is soon to be available for Nintendo Wii "Guitar Hero"!

[cubscoutmom76]

This song kicks ass...especially this version with the guitar!!!

[NateDigit]

[LiFasebuke]

[Samsolce]

[pkiller91]

why is Ryan Lesie such a fkn BEAST!

[theresonlyonemanutd]

why is ryan leslie so underrated ??!!!

[BadBitchJordynn]

@theresonlyonemanutd because people don't recognize good music.

[Misana]

@theresonlyonemanutd cause he does a good job.. they don't hard sell him an put his face everywhere.. i suppose...

[Wiggles1997]

that guitar riff is soo fukkkin good!

[FuturePWilliams]

Does anybody know where I can downlaod this version?

[DWesleyD]

Being at every concert rles gives, thats how it was supposed to be...

[tacoque]

[xglowingangelx]

[jasdeviel]

[jasdeviel]

Ryan babe, you da only man that could pull off dem boots and look straight...not to mention that move when youve got yur legs spread and you hand on ur head

[andreasp19]

[Sage8900]

I just purchased the music video on itunes for this version.

[mocro555]

This is good....very good

[Chaucer129]

I love it! xx

[maeannjorolan]

GENIUS!!

[reeceomadeli]

The man comes under his own genre of music.

[ShanaBreezy]

i loev this song awsome beat and music. :) awsome song.

[JulianSancheZ21]

This song would also be great in a piano/voice-only version :)

Maybe some other instrument as well to get more sound but basically piano. Like an rnb ballad-version. I know it'd be a hit! xD

Kinda like the singers in the beginning of the other of his video to this song, while he played the piano.

Peace :)

[stiffia]

everything is perfect in this song...

[stiffia]

[ThePokeyPictures]

[licialicous]

LOVE THIS SONG!!

THE BEAT IS SICKKKKKKK

[citykidben13]

he got them shades from china town i sold them to him...he s not that nice fantasia and ruben studderd is way better

[NytzMusic]

@citykidben13 but they're noway near as talented because he can produce and play more instruments than both of them put together

[pepjg7]

cool song

[anothername4d]

Definitely like this version better, but both are good!

[Badtrixx19]

most underated artist....such a shame

[funnyassclow21]

this is my sugar honey iced tea

[kimalyKbodian]

Your song struck a nerve in me. Made me think back. I loved the topic of your song and your hook.

[MrLovingspain]

though his voice is pretty ugly...

[Que79]

by far one of my FAV songs!! everyone has at least one person who comes to mind when this song comes on...this version is hotter than the orginal btw

[MrLovingspain]

@Que79 you're absolutely right....that girl, can't stop thinking about her

[KChozenMusic]

love the fusion of rock and hiphop. not as sick as r.les but check out my beat making vids and let me know what you think

[wiolawiolam]

[KingRap4U]

I luv this song; he need more support, cause his music ist so great!

[blubberhomer]

ryan needs better advertising,especially outside of USA.here in germany,almost none of my friends know him,but if i show them his music they are like *WOW* and ask why he is so unknown in the international business.greetz from germany !

[Phynx1273]

Riding bass line at 3:00-3:05...killer!

[lilcassanova87]

I just wish he kept the guitar in the production on the album version!!! This version sounds so much better!

[macy215]

awesome song

[MALKIA08]

[yugoprincez]

i think that the remix with Jadakiss is much better. But it's also good.

Love him and I agree with omgaw. He should be muuuuuuuch more famous. His talent have to see the whole woorld. Loove him ♥

[duBBle159]

[AhmadMelos]

nice Ryan , but one thing I must tell you , the beat is not yours , i heared that that beat by other songs more than 5 times ..... but your song is nice but it isn´t your beat ;) but you are good in composing music . Take care ;)

[Shockressiv]

i should do more songs like this, much better than the stupid love songs

[safiartv]

[Rafaella3074]

Cant stop rockin to this hype..

Brilliant Mate....

Leslie's an amazing artist....

Haha I cant stop boppin....

The beats are so rocky:-)

[AzeriBoyxx]

Superb

[MrJahangY]

Incredible....So underated 

[arabalwsn]

Really loving it. I go to sleep listening to this song. Gives me a happy feeling

[novela1125]

Overall in all aspects he's talented from song writing to producing his own, knowing how to play different instruments as well; and in addition being a witty singer whom graduated from Harvard @ the age of 19, can't get better than that!! Luv you Ryan!!

[xingatumatii]

Why the fuck i hear about justin bieber every fucking day and i dont hear about a true talented nigga like ryan???

[jahmehz]

great stuff man. cant stop listening to this song, and i dont listen to mainstream music very much--im loving your sound keep it up

[PottHead19]

f@ very nice

[TheDayveion]

That's the way the industry is right now. Trashy artists that are getting shine now, won't be around long. The people that are famous right now are just "In The Meantime" artists. When I make it in, I don't plan on leaving for a VERY long time. I guarantee it.

[kenci1985]

unbelievable great fantastico awesome super what a f great sh..

ryan leslie NR1 in making rnb

[Banjario]

Out of all the songs that use the same chord progression and notes as Africa (by Toto), this one is actually really good

[angiebee413]

looove him!

[butall3]

watch and learn jason derulo

[Aspire2BFire]

@butall3 lol, hmmm, Jeremih has more of a chance. LOL.

[ShinigamiApfel]

Wooooow i knew this song from the audio but did not know who the singer was, and i have to say Ryan, you are such a great singer and in my opinion a person with a nice soul....because there are just a few singer, who call their band by name like you did here in the description and i think it is very important to sing to express and not to impress :) so far thank you for this song i love it =)

[SheniceLunnTiffany]

Cant wait until this is on MTV on demand ugh

[K1M6A0]

He is soo goood and i never knew about him??? :((

Which was really bad... But I know him now and soim gna do my bit and get his name round

Coz he should be more famous then this!

[YungJoshii]

He's got two versions of this. I can't find this anywhere.

[yeahwafflesgo]

this is so much better than the album version!

[breezyrivera23]

ilyk the this instrumental idnt lyk the other version. kan yu sendd mee this instrumental.?

[sososexy82]

Ryan I have to say becuz of u, u made my relationship stronger.......ur awesome!!!!

[YGKiddxMusic]

DopeAF. RyanLeslie Inspiress.

[itaikam15]

Fuck ryan leslie., for stealing this sample.

[itaikam15]

Fuck ryan leslie., for stealing this sample.

[BabyIce17]

Not everyone is looking for fame! Some people just like making music... we need more of those artist because as soon as "some" artist see money signs they get big headed and forget why they started making music in the first place so come out with some SHOCKINGLY AWEFUL stuff!!!! That they call music... but not everyone is like that.

[Ver0nic4]

Loving this song he is good

[katiafalter]

Fuckin love this song (: One of the best . Heard it on my TV music station & I never go a day without listening to it . He's SOOO much better than A LOT of the other artists out theree . Amazing song < 33

[venya4life]

Dope song, not tryin to knock on RL's vocals...but just wonderin if the dynamic of a song would change if more powerful top end vocals were inserted ....Just straight raw power!

[msandee09]

Very much underrated..but I absolutely love his music..he is a breath of fresh air

[kyatkraker]

dis beat is tooooo crazyyy....no words to express...none. big tune!

[SayOneTV]

[allryse]

ryan sings the original. he just added the guitar and so on to this arrangement. phat

[Baudilaire]

This man needs a lot more recognition than he's getting. He's better than ur Timbalands etc. Absolute Ledge

[ArlynnSings]

Love the original, and this arrangement too.  This one is a bit more 'in your face'.

[RoXiLiCiOusPL]
