  • Wow! What a nice unplugged version of that song! I love it! Very soulful.

  • This is absolutely the best. The power of this song overwhelms me. I love her TOO much.

  • I miss her with the Neptunes. Hurts, Star Trak forever.

  • this is a awesome performance. it sucks that kelis doesnt get the recognition she deserves tho she did have hit songs like caught out there,trick me,bossy and milkshake. kelis was always out of the box and she was ahead of her time cuz now u have chicks tryna copy her style like gaga and rihanna and even beyonce at one point. the good thing about this performance was that she wasnt tryna be perfect with her voice. she did it natually and not just typical screamin and overreacting.

  • Bitch can sang and whoever says she can't... I don't know what planet you are on. For me, I liked her early stuff and then as time went a long I feel like she lost track. This is one of my favorite Kelis' jams. Gurl can work, it's just her voice is now washed out by thumping house music....

  • She sounds like Toni Braxton here, her lower register is very nice.

  •  She can sang

  • favorite song ever

  • I wish She Would Make more songs like this 

  • KELIS!!! we love youuuuuuuuu :) dont stop for nothin. your doing it for the people who know what real music is. thanks!!

  • this grl can fukin sing she has so much soul and passion,shes singing from the heart,no matter wut the media says i will always luv kelis cuz her songs have actual meaning unlike nowaday pop artists

  • Fuck bossy...too pop

  • Heartful...I miss her like this...

  • Good Song,i think she should make more songs like this as apposed to bossy...she sounds alot like Toni Braxton Here.

    she also doesn't seem to get the credit she deserves as well.

  • @form109 Good point. I was just thinking I'd wish she'd do a R&B/Hip Hop album next. Techno is cool but I can only take so much of that.

  • memorable performance love the way she broke it down...love kelis for being so original and soulful with it....shes singing from the heart!

  • WOW! What a powerful performance and delivery! This is so amazing! I love this song but more importantly the execution! Kelis is amazing! I love my love for reminding me within this vocal presentation! SOUL! At it's finest! GO HEAD KELIS WITH YOUR BAD SELF! :)

  • i love this song

  • Sing it Toni Braxton OOPS I mean Kelis! lol =) They sound too much alike! Kelis can really sing her ass off.

  • she sounds just like toni braxton here...love it

  • @shaedream09 mmhmmm

  • This is beautiful :)

  • she has so BEAUTIFUL VOICE!!!! love her

  • This is the first time I heard Kelis sound so good live. I really like her, but sometimes she sounds bad.

  • she sings like toni braxton with deep voice, it doesnt mean she can't sing!back off haterzz!!!!

  • I forgot how much I love her voice. She is simply incredible.

  • Its not that she cant sing, because she has a beautiful voice. Its just that she' snot in control of it. In this song her voice sounds Great However There are some parts when she should have went with high Notes and she didn't ... Maybe she's not good with the high Notes idk... But this is SouLFuLL Right Here!!

  • she can sing, but live its very noticeable they took the song down to a lower note and pace, because she is probly more comfortable at this tone, singing in a faster higher tone is very hard live, and most singers do this

  • Umm.... she still can't sing. God that's bad. I can barely even listen to it. I can sing better than her.

  • @cuneengleengueest then you get up there and sing the song...while you hating she is out making her money..embrace the fact that not everyone is not a beyonce,gaga or rihanna..that's the difference between artist and entertainers..those ppl are made because of a vision through their record labels. but kelis on the other half is and artists and does her own thing and if her label does not understand that then she wont' work with them...see you need to research. im sure u cant do better.

  • @chelegetsmoney keep BEYONCE out yo font

  • @cuneengleengueest Hater, burn.

  • @cuneengleengueest Umm yeah sure you do..That's why we all buy your cd's and we know who you are..

  • @cuneengleengueest Hatin is a weakness!!! If you sing better y we ain't never heard of u?

  • Beautiful performance of a bloody brilliant choon!

  • This is a nice performance..when it first came on i wasnt expecting her to sing that deep...but it sounds good!

  • uhmm no, she's still not a great vocalist. plenty of ladies out who will sing her under the table..

  • Always loved this version so honest, words are so sad

  • Kélis tu restes une des meilleures chanteuses!!!! ton look te va a ravir!! bravo miss kiss from france for you!!! Quelle belle voix!!!

  • this is amazing. haters sit the fuck down. kelis is the fuckin shit so get with it. if you think milkshake and bossy are her angles this performance and "Acapella" will set you straight. she sings with such passion and soul in this vid, no one can deny that. truly a unique talent.

  • love it

  • fuckin amazing!

  • beautiful version.

  • Dear missgigi:

    Time flies, I can't believe it has been so long since you posted this song. Thanks for this gem.

    Kelis' personal shit is really not our business. This music is beautiful, period. I am glad you keep it online for the times that I need to hear her intense voice to recharge.

    Peace

  • shes bad ass fuk a hater

  • You know what , I'm entitled to my opinion and if it rubs you the wrong way then so be it .. some of you people are so dumb that you actually want to come at me sideways and don't even know me ... I just didn't like the way she put that man business out there like that . she should have kept that shit in the house! who don't like what i said then fuck off!!!do something about it bitchess!!!!

  • @tempojah Yes... telling people to do something about it over the internet... Brilliant. Aren't you a big man. *rolleyes*

  • @TheBigLamowski don't respond to me I'm not coming at you personally you don't know me .. It's entertainment !!!

  • Bitch, Kelis was a star overseas before she was with nas. you are a NOBODY! hating ass bitch! Kelis has made a name without the help of Nas. And you don't know anything thats going on so you should keep your irrelevant opinion to yourself.

  • She didn't play Nas. Nas cheated on Kelis, review your facts before trying to bash her.

  • My god her voice is gorgeous.

    Beautiful, fine - love it. My favourite Kelis song.

  • of course she can sing! whoever doubts that is crazy!

  • if this is not singing that what it? shes goodd!

  • She is an artist who gives a fuck don't see none of us up there singing and shit so who CARES!!!!!!!!!!! thats whats wrong with people today these days.

  • Why peopl are so worried about money that has nothing to do with you? As a matter of fact, why are people are worrying about a situation that doesn't pertain to you at all? Its Kelis' personal life, stay out of it. Even if she was getting a million a month, you're not paying for it nor are you getting of it either. So why do you care? Kelis is an artist, appreciate her art and shut up. Its annoying how people keep mentioning the money shes receiving.

  • i love kelis..and like her song say..she is bossy..and you think she cant figure a way to hustle for her kids if she had to..second off..in her song trick me..she told yall..she would not let no nigga roll all over her..so she left him...even with all the money he has...she letting yall know money dont possess her..50 grand compare to 700...money wasnt the problem.yall betta check nas

  • i ♥ her

  • to the comments below... $20,000/mo. is pretty damn good. MORE THAN YOU MAKE HATER! i love the raunchiness in her voice. def love the live performances

  • U sorry ass parents and there should have been aborted offspring. i wish your dad nutted in a cup or your mother swallowed you. get a clue

  • First of all. Nas was intoxicated and was not permitted into the deliver room wasted.nas makes over 700 thousand a month. kelis makes around 20 grand month. the house and cars duh so for all the people saying shes a gold digger and didnt want nas to see her kid need to look again,sense she has signed a major record deal, nas will no longer have to give her spousal support, holy hell the population these days look at wikipedia and think everything is legit.

  • I like Kelis, she didn't need 50 grand a month for a kid. I mean, how many people make 20 g's a month? If you think you can't raise a kid off that much a month than YOU got issues, no matter how much the daddy makes (not a fan of Nas btw). I know I make it happen at 45 g's a YEAR. Like Andre 3000 said "If you don't move yo feet than I don't eat so we like neck to neck". She better start performing

  • i love this song. it is so special. big sigh :/

  • wow i love this version, she kinda sound like toni braxton

  • Love this !

    Here I am (-;

  • This is so refreshing hearing Kelis sing this. She sound so beautiful. Like I stated a while back, her and Toni Braxton sound so much alike. This confirmed right here Kelis can sing. The guy who's playing the piano did an amazing job as well. Great Video!

  • Agreed! Both of them have very similar tones. I wish Kelis would go back to music like this. None of that "Bossy" foolishness...

  • Comment removed

  • I miss her curly wild hair...her soul radiates...she is so beautiful, and love her voice, reminds me of Toni Braxton here...so deep, so wonderful! I believe Nas messed up with such an amazing woman...Kelis rocks!!!

  • so beautyfull ... touched my soul

  • this girl can SANG! i didnt know she could do it like that!

  • So beautiful

  • oh oh oh... how can yall dimwits feel kelis? she's down right evil. why? she's stealing money from nas, as in, plain robbery. 55000 !!! fifty-five thousand dollars a month sir? come on now. and, she has a son, and what does she do? she makes sure nas can't see his own son get born. come on now, that's just plain hatin. Like fuck u nas ow it's your son too but I don't give a fuck.. u cheated on me now im goin to ruin your entire life!!!

  • lol... Like he wasn't the one that did wrong? She's a person as well as an artist. That's the life they've been living together and that life has a price. It has nothing to do with her music. She was OFF THE CHAIN before Nas and will continue to be afterwards..

  • course he did wrong. obviously. but her reaction wasn't proportionate to what he did, in my opinion. Ok alimony and all that is cool, but 55000? Thats going above and beyond. Nas would be street-bum broke in like 5 years. Thats not cool.

  • he cheated on his pregnant wife! what the hell you think would be suitable for her to do? smile and forgive him? god, whats the matter witht people who think betrayal of your spouse (who you have a child with) is nothing?!?!?

  • Well..yeah. There are some women you just don't fuck with. Kelis is one of those women.

  • Aren't they back together?

  • nas left Kalis and left her with the medical bills for the unborn child maybe if he would of steped up from jump, he wouldnt owed that mush.Money is the rule of all evil.

  • yeah like kelis doesnt have money to pay medical bills? gtfo

  • aww kelis is the baddest in the game...i hope she pulls through this divorce mess. and i hope she makes another album with n.e.r.d.

  • her best song!

  • i like this song keils

  • this was her best song and best performance..she should make more of this type..check my version out..im playing the piano and singing this song ..less than a minute long..request more if you like

  • This isn't her best song, she has a lot more

  • I said THIS WAS HER BEST song...NOT her ONLY song...i'm sure she has a lot more ..but how about u post ur own comment next time and dont respond to mine

  • erm yes it is her best song

  • This is such a hot rendition, thanks for sharing missgigi!

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!; P lol

  • BeautifULLL

  • Tony Braxton my arse-they just have lovely deep voices! Influences/nuances/style....i dont think so.

    Kelis sings tunes with an edge. Toni....i just cant compare....and why?

  • Toni Braxton is definately an influence of hers

  • I love it! Kind of a cross between Anita Baker and Toni Braxton

  • sounds like toni braxton on this version.

  • It's a nose what the fuck were you expecting?

  • Lol you can't honestly say that most noses got that huge nostrils...

  • The camera is up her nose making it appear larger than normal. Many people do have large nostrils that you can run a truck through.............

  • me likey xoxoxo

  • Amazing Vocals

  • Very Toni Braxton-ish.

    I f**king love it.

  • This is simply amazing and if you find it anything but you are not a musically inclined individual.

  • I love her!

  • Comment removed

  • WOW!!!

  • i love kelis her voice is amazing...omg.

  • cuz usually the singers voice is deeper than the track.. she has a naturally deep voice..but to make the song sound brighter..they make a singer sing in a certain key... then wen its live..its how ever they feel comfortable. She's a tenner vocalist

  • I see the child in this lovely woman.

  • this was my favorite kelis song........she really is somthing....love her lyrics in this.

  • shes sings really good here

  • KELiS OWNS iT.......LOVE HER....

  • who gives a fuck about beyonce at this point?

    KELIS KILLED IT AND THATS ALL I KNOW

  • I just have one ? what does this kelis video have to do with Beyonce??

  • this video has nothing to do with beyonce. it annoys me that every female pop or r&b singer that i view on youtube seems to always have some association or comparison with beyonce. shut up! this is a kelis video. there's beyonce videos, comment about beyonce on her videos!!!

    ps- i do love beyonce btw...

  • i love this song...this my favorite song by kelis. the girl is creative and can sing...much better than bubblegum "R&B" nowadays

  • i really love this song and i loved her back in the day when she first came out and her music was so original and deep, rather than the more recent commercial bubble gum stuff like "Milkshake" or "Bossy". but i guess you have to do what you have to do to be successful, i just prefer her earlier stuff.

  • dang i had no idea kelis could sing like this. she should record all her tracks like this

  • Nawl, you think she's the queen, that's why u all up on her! ;)

  • i agree...she is a very unpretentious soulful singer! love her!

  • It's a shame she doesn't release music like this, instead of the gimmicky songs thus far. She should really take more control over her music, I like this side of Kelis so much more.

  • I Like This Version Very Beautiful Kelis

  • When she sings this songs, she reminds me alittle of Toni Braxton, cause of the deep rough sound it her voice, i love her

  • I never thought of that, she does remind me a lil of Toni.

  • this is awesome

    soulful

    sad

    beautiful <3

  • Why does there gotta be a comparison??? If you line up rappers and singers and have them do the same song then we can get somewhere on the opinion ballots! EITHERE YOU LIKE IT OR YOU DON'T!

  • She is orignal. Imagine if she had Beyonce's voice and dance skill oh and def sex appeal then it would be a rap for eveyone else

  • I don't think Beyonce's voice is that great, good but not great; I think Kelis' voice is better. But if I had to pick a contemporary with a better or stronger voice I would choose Christina Aguilera, Brandy or India.Arie.

  • NO one is more original than Kelis

  • i always felt she could sing, what you talking a bout??? i love this song by the way. one of my favorites of hers.

  • i like the way she sung this song for the EMA. It gave it more emotion, but it's a great song either way.

  • i wish her voice were clearer.

    She's got an excellent tenor voice you don't hear in a lot of female singers.

  • suck my dick no she doesnt

  • so does your mother

  • I m iN loVe with yOur sister

  • I love both versions. This live version shows her talent. I have been a fan from the beginning so I know how talented she is.

  • I love Kelis. She has a gorgeous voice so who ever said she can't sing is sadly mistaken. She has more talent than most people in the industry.

  • she sounds beautiful

  • She Killed It!

  • mp3 plz?

  • Is Kelis a Contralto?, she sounds like it

  • i think her voice is closer to toni braxton

  • ok, but that's still kind of not answering my question. Toni is a Contralto thou, but saying her voice sounds closer to hers, is not really telling, and or confirming nothing for me

  • and Toni Braxtion is a Contralto as well nicathomas08

  • yea she is

  • Thanx, and dead @ the negatives. Goodness, just cause people don't know what a Contralto is, and how to answer my question, I get negatives *smh*

  • lol, well its only a few of us musically inclined and educated people... I gave u a postive! lol

  • lol, yeah it is, and thanx

  • lol

  • KELIS KELIS KELIS

  • Her voice is a bit similar to Toni Braxton's. Her pronunciation is a bit difficult to understand, though.

    She could be huge if she weren't so nasty ^^

  • she needs to come back to music

  • Great Song!! Kelis and Scary Spice kind of favor in facial appearance.

  • i want her hair and sunglasses.

  • can someone turn this into a mp3 and send it to me i love this version

  • you ain't never lied

  • you still need the mp3??

  • nope i got this version after a while

    im so happy

  • is that even possible to turn this into a mp3, if so, how do i go about downloading it?

    thnx

  • God, she's so amazing.

  • i love this version it sounds sadder

    i likie

  • she sound good!
