I hate to sound like a broken record but they truly don't make music like this anymore. Give me my old school. REALITY STEPS INTO VIEW! SING YOUR SONG GURL! FOREVER A FAN.
I remember coming home from track practice while in high school and my mother would be sitting in her chair with this on the stereo which I heard when I was coming up the drive way. I would stand in the door way of the kitchen and living room watching her as she sat in the candle lit room singing the mess out of this song. She would motion for me to come over, sit me on her lap and rock back and forth. I know where I get that romantic side and voice from. I love you momma.
your right, but sometimes the person we see as artists are very different in their personal life. She is a great performer and a very talented person but maybe her life was out of control.
Ms. Anita Baker said it right when she said that store ends the store is true because it is a fairy tales much come to an end because there is no such thing call love.
This woman was classy, sexy and just beautiful. Someone said of the video I apologize: We saw nothing but legs and arms and it was still erotic but tasteful. I would love to see another lady artist with such class!
my 3rd favorite song by Anita, after Good Love and Talk To Me. when i first was listening to this song (i was 4,5 yrs old) i luvved the lyrics talking about princes, spells, etc., but i didnt understand the metaphores. a few years later i got it and it made the song that much better even tho i still didnt truly understand the emotion and enlightenment behind the song until a few years ago. anyway, i always luvv Anita's voice. I grew up listening to her, and ill still listen to when i get old
This lovely Songstress had to live this song as she had to endure the "toxicity" of insult and unpleasantness in her own marriage, I hope she has found a loving relationship that is deserving of the all the compassion and love in which she embody's. And the person tickling the Ivory on this tune played it "SINISTER" you can feel the dream become disheartening with every re-frame, as he puts some stank on it to the very end that Anita holler, oh Lord.
@Escobarb2007 ...true that piano player is no joke. The drummer is bad-ass too. My son is a pro player, and it's not easy to hit them skins like that. Mad Skillz!
doing dinner with friend of mine last week and we were talking about classic songs, this song is definitely takes me back. What a great story it tells.
This is classic Anita Baker! She was at her absolute best when she did this number. Don't know if you knew but she went thru a bitter divorce, I think this is why her style changed, her latest hits are nothing like this! Girlfriend let me have it with this entire albumn! Anita can take you so high and evr so low, this is why I like the versatility of her range....sing to me baby! This albumn will be a hard act to follow!
I love this- I'd love to read the lyrics. For those of us whose love is lost, life is hell yet this is consolation. Love you, girl- you hit the right notes. Message sent, message received. Thank you.
Fairy Tales, that to which we may only be left to entertain and not "necessarily less than" what perception leaves to the understanding! It's not what we know, but what we can prove, as snapping our fingers would reflect that positive groove! Lusciousblkman0049
Yeah, there are no fairy tales in real life, and she lets you know that too. So very nicely sung, and this is one of my all time favs by Mrs. Anita Baker. We are soooo very proud of you. Keep singing to us, always.
I can distinctly remember being four years old, during early 1991... and I'm in the car with my aunt. We were at the drive-thru of Arby's, and she's getting me a cherry turnover as this song is playing on the radio (Dallas's K104)... Funny, the things you remember, huh?! ;-)
Excellent vocal with good harmonics and words. Also great piano. In life one can never tell the depth of the well by the length of the handle on the pump.......People and things are so often not what they seem to be.
this is the very reality that mothers need to teach their daughters. I was obsessed with the fairy tale of life, and once I thought I had it I realized that nothing is as it seems. And ALL HUMANS are capable of anything. Never hold someone on a higher pedestal than your own life. They will take it for granted.
@chattowifey yes, say it say it...I also teach my son "super man is not coming" from the movie "super is not coming' If you think someone else is going to do it...you will be disappointed all your life.
On the same note... Unfortunately some Churches have put out a harmful message...that there is a super man who is coming to save them ( no I am not talking in a spiritual way), I mean everyday life...as a result many never fulfill what God really had intended for them...life lesson.
@chattowifey YES !!! and it's funny because at 1st I didn't understand why my older sister said shes not telling her girls fairy tales I was like wow shes taking it too far but now that I'm older I understand 100% and I'm happily married for 7 years and its a job everyday to say this way and I have one of the best husbands in the world but as far as the fairy tails I wish she would of told me the truth...:)
@chattowifey YES !!! and it's funny because at 1st I didn't understand why my older sister said shes not telling her girls fairy tales I was like wow shes taking it too far but now that I'm older I understand 100% and I'm happily married for 7 years and its a job everyday to say this way and I have one of the best husbands in the world but as far as the fairy tails I wish she would of told me the truth...:)
@chattowifey I was listening to a comedian say: Straight women...your problem is that you have the fairy tale expectation and gay guys, we understand how men are so if he turns into a frog after we marry him, we expect it! So sad but true!
I agree with nightnurse49, from a former night nurse I could not have said it better and Anita sung the truth that's just reality which can sometimes be a bitch.
this is the definition of a masterpiece.....Anita singing like only she can....and brother greg on that dang piano..he should be taken out and shot...it just dont make no earthly sense to be able to tear into a piano like that..................
When this song comes on my music system I can't just listen to it JUST once noooo............. . 8-10 times later I can move onto the next song. ;-) I LOVE SONGS THAT TELLS A STORY With singer who can sing it without all the "LOOK WHAT MY VOICE CAN DO CRAP". All great singers let the song / words "do" the work,their just there to give it a voice.. This song has a start, a middle and a end like all good stories should. Now please excuse me while I listen to this yet again. :-)
@BigBabysDaddy - It's Greg Phillinganes. He's a very prolific musician who has a resume a mile long. You name the artist, Greg has probably worked with them in performance or writing or both. And as I have written before, he's a great guy as well.
Anita simply just opens her mouth...and SINGS better than no other! An instrument foreal! "The story ends..as stories do".....So much emotion! One my all time faves!
And you know what? The fairy tales go on. Have you seen the beauty pageants for babies? Tiaras for,yes, more princesses. What happens when the tiaras stop?
Don't you love the "She never said...." lines. "Prince never saved....reality comes into view....no more livin' lies in paradise." Now, you want to talk about somethin goin' hawd. Agreed, The beat is perfect. In fact the whole song is, as sung by Ms Anita.
As a 11 year old yhud expect that i dont listen to this... but this here... the original r and b .... is my music. not this new crazy stuff bout booty bouncin nnd stuff... this is real
It's funny how this song came out when I was born and I love it. The end is my favorite part. I play this in my car and my classmate look at me funny. It doesn't matter.
@nightnurse49 It's so funny you say that because I was thinking the same thing.....no more living in fairy tales that aren't real. Make yourself happy in your own reality. Make your dreams come true for yourself. Great comment.
This song can be a two way street- sometime we men think that we have found our princess and she turns out to be the evil queen with the poison apple.
@damnedgenericname If it was to be made by producer J Dilla (who is sadly not with us on this earth anymore), it probably would been proper. Maybe another one called 9th wonder. But otherwise, totally agree, this should be left untouched.
I wonder if Greg was the one playing the piano at the end of "I apologize" for anita baker...If you listen to the album cut(not on youtube) it has a piano solo to end the song and I love it as much as this one
@damnedgenericname this is why i reacted the way i reacted. i thought you were one of those cats talking shyt bout the music but i definitely understand where you're coming from. and yes people can actually resolve differences without resorting to bullshyt internet beef. real recognize real...
@damnedgenericname i've been seeing a lot of talk on youtube from people talkin shyt bout hip hop n samplin. i agree there's been alot of bullshyt remakes n remixes. but real hip hop is as legitimate an art form as gospel, blues, funk, jazz, classical, country, techno, i can go on n on. people r quick 2 talk shyt bout hip hop yet they fail 2 look at da actual real issue, commercially hi-jacked music which corrupts all music. instead of blamin a scapegoat call it wat it really is, people !!!
@2damnfunny we jus both very adamant music heads. good music is good music and i'll defend it like a relative. anyone who loves good music would do the same.
@damnedgenericname it sounded like you hated hip hop at first. i didn't call you an asshole. i said you sounded like one but we actually agree more then we disagree. i apologize for our miscommunication. yeah certain songs should not be touched but at the same time, someone might remake this song and make a classic. any future remakes of this song won't take anything away from this classic song. music is a balance of inspiration and innovation.
@damnedgenericname i agree that alot of remixes, remakes shouldn't be done. but how about Smokey Robinson, D'angelo's Cruisin'. we should support the artist who actually have the skill to keep old classic alive in the memories of todays youth and who are also good enough to innovate on their own. damn, now i'm sounding old. but as long as you're specific when you talk about music you won't sound like an uneducated hating ass critic.
@damnedgenericname why do you hate hip hop...? with any form of music there's good and there's bad music. you shouldn't generalize when you talk about music. be specific. you sound like an uneducated asshole.
Fire department probably STILL ain't put that piano out.

@damnedgenericname If it was to be made by producer J Dilla (who is sadly not with us on this earth anymore), it probably would been proper. Maybe another one called 9th wonder. But otherwise, totally agree, this should be left untouched.

I wonder if Greg was the one playing the piano at the end of "I apologize" for anita baker...If you listen to the album cut(not on youtube) it has a piano solo to end the song and I love it as much as this one

@damnedgenericname this is why i reacted the way i reacted. i thought you were one of those cats talking shyt bout the music but i definitely understand where you're coming from. and yes people can actually resolve differences without resorting to bullshyt internet beef. real recognize real...

@damnedgenericname i've been seeing a lot of talk on youtube from people talkin shyt bout hip hop n samplin. i agree there's been alot of bullshyt remakes n remixes. but real hip hop is as legitimate an art form as gospel, blues, funk, jazz, classical, country, techno, i can go on n on. people r quick 2 talk shyt bout hip hop yet they fail 2 look at da actual real issue, commercially hi-jacked music which corrupts all music. instead of blamin a scapegoat call it wat it really is, people !!!

@2damnfunny we jus both very adamant music heads. good music is good music and i'll defend it like a relative. anyone who loves good music would do the same.

@damnedgenericname it sounded like you hated hip hop at first. i didn't call you an asshole. i said you sounded like one but we actually agree more then we disagree. i apologize for our miscommunication. yeah certain songs should not be touched but at the same time, someone might remake this song and make a classic. any future remakes of this song won't take anything away from this classic song. music is a balance of inspiration and innovation.
lanigirod 1 year ago
@damnedgenericname i agree that alot of remixes, remakes shouldn't be done. but how about Smokey Robinson, D'angelo's Cruisin'. we should support the artist who actually have the skill to keep old classic alive in the memories of todays youth and who are also good enough to innovate on their own. damn, now i'm sounding old. but as long as you're specific when you talk about music you won't sound like an uneducated hating ass critic.
lanigirod 1 year ago
@damnedgenericname why do you hate hip hop...? with any form of music there's good and there's bad music. you shouldn't generalize when you talk about music. be specific. you sound like an uneducated asshole.
