Whatever happened to her? She is underrated indeed! The fact that nearly a decade later & so on we've heard Janet Jackson and Beyoncé plagiarize her tunes can attest to her originality and sense of beauty– this song is nearly perfect!– and that her music may prove to be timeless. And yes, she is rather a regal beauty as well... she reminds me a bit of Jessye Norman...
This is such an amazing song (in it's phrasing ) and she sings it perfectly. These videos fall so short. She is so beautiful and expressive that just a video of her well shot would have done it. But what a great song and a great singer
she's got such a beautiful face, i like the lack of conceit in her performance, like she doesnt know how good she looks,some of these females out now need a dose of humble,,,lol
Des'ree is underrated, this is when music was good. I'm only 21 and I cant listen to artists like beyonce, janet jackson, lady gaga, nicki minaj, I know janet is a good artist but she doesn't talk about good things anymore it's always about sex or trying to keep up with the good crowd. But des'ree , phyllis hyman, whitney houston, mary j blige, talk about real things. Love you des'ree!
This was originally on Mind Adventures and then tacked onto "I Ain't Moving". All copies of Mind Adventures from that point on had this track removed.
yo there another song that sound like this one can anyone tell me what it is, i mean it sound intricately like this one, oh and i would also like to comment on how mellow and enjoyable this song is, i love des'ree and my mother did before she died too, her style is consistant
@alivenawake1 Wat u mean I got it twisted?? Yea I know all about the ummah and all dem, wat does Jay have to do with my comment, Des'Ree is the source, thats my whole point, and Janet is the artist that is headlining it and singing it, I know she didnt produce this.
@Tori42 to be honest, this sounds more like ''Special'' which was track 20 off ''Velvet Rope'' rather than ''Got Til It's Gone'' but I guess Jam & Lewis sampled both songs
@Tori42 : Um... "Got 'til it's gone" was sampled from a Joni Mitchell song... not by Des.ree. Also, Janet tells people DIRECTLY in the song that it's a Joni Mitchell song... I don't get why you have 6 thumbs up with bad information. O_o
@BOWBSManga Actually Janet Jackson DID sample this song for ''Got Til It's Gone'' because she used the SAME MELODY from this song for her verses where she's singing in the same exact tune as this song, but is using DIFFERENT LYRICS in her verses. She used the Joni Mitchell sample for the chorus so she sampled both songs and yes, you can sample more than one song in a single track so Tori42 is right and you're not.
how many versions are there? lol im seen three now lol but I still like the very first, the one with all her girlfriends, shes a bit bigger in that clip but still beautiful;-)
@spirit69warrior yeah theres another 2, one where shes in the desert and another which is my fav, its in black & white and shes abit bigger & shes walking around arm in arm with her girlfriends in like this botanic garden kind of setting...its beautiful...des'ree is beautiful
@spirit69warrior which one do you like most? i utubed why should i love you but the video isnt available ;( remember shes wearing the orange summer dress and is also set in the desert?
She souls so much like Anita Baker on this song

Wow - this is one of my Top 5 favorite songs of the '90s, and until now, I'd never seen the video!
An absolutely beautiful song and an absolutely beautiful artist.
I miss the part of me that went on "Mind Adventures" to music like this...
And I love the way Brits say certain words, like "fortune" (heard throughout this song).
