Breaking it off with my ex was one of the hardest choices I've ever made, but I know our futures were in two different paths. Ralph's song really captured the exact emotion I was feeling.
it sucks cuz i was born in 1990 and this is the year the song came out, wish i was born in the 70's, cuz the mid 80's to the mid 90's is possibly the best music ever! im 21 but im an old man inside. all the younger generation music sucks ass.
@TheOG808 your lucky u grew up in the youtube time where u could just come listen to this song. Back then if we aint have the record we had to tape it when we heard it on the radio LLS
It really broke his heart to break up with this woman. U really have to go thru something serious to sing a song like this, he poured his heart into it.
Im only 13 about to turn 14 this month. Ik good musiq when i hear it,dont feel ashamed,and this kind of musiq is the only RnB Soul i listen to now,because our new artists sing about the dumbest things,it dont make sense,and they can't sing as good as people like NEW EDITION,MINT CONDITION,SWV,JODECI,SILK,UNV,DRU HILL,JAGGED EDGE,R. KELLY,H-TOWN,GUY,TROOP,KEITH SWEAT,SHAI,BACKSTREET,PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT,etc.
To my EX Josh: I know that things between us are pretty much beyond repair right now. And I wouldn't ever presume to try and make everything better with a conversation. I just want to tell you, I want to say ... I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the pain it caused you. But mostly I'm sorry for my part in it. But mostly I'm sorry because I miss our friendship. And however far off it may be, I look forward to the day that we can be friends again. I LOVE YOU.
Love Ralph with the group and as a solo artist. I'm glad to say I grew up with them as the original boy band and thier music never got old, stands the test of time. This music has emotion and heart in it. My girls (17,14, and 12) know music from 50's to today and I'm proud to say they know New Edition and thier solo acts by voice alone!!! Can't wait for the reunion tour with all 6 of these guys!!!!!
I CAN REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THIS SONG, I WAS GOIN TO THE SHOE STORE TO BUY THE NEW L.A GEAR BOOTS AND HEARD THIS ON THE RADIO IN THE STORE . GOOD TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i soooo looove this song!!! i remember i was about hmmm 19 and this is the song my ex played for me when we broke up ,,, i love this song but i would hate for this to happend to me or to nyone break up song
okay I do love this song, but its wrong to say only Ralph Tresvant sung this song, I had thought it was the entire New Edition who did this song, that aint fair to Ronnie Bobby, Ricky, or Mike! Damn!
@bkmartin27 This was from Ralph's solo album, so it was only him. I bet somebody already told you that, but I wouldn't feel right not saying anything, lol.
right after my exboyfriend broke off with me (he always comes bac 2 me anyway) i heard this song a few days later and i cried and listen 2 it maybe a hundred times I know he still luvs me and i still luv him and i always will no matter who im with in the meantime
@stewxl yeah you are right you can see the same Janet's "Come back to me" production,vocals,type of arrangement. The made some masterpieces around that time,wonderful sound.Honestly songwriters and producers are the real genius behind the music. I mean there are awsome vocalists,Ralph did wonderful here but tehre are just kind of certain compositions and productions that its gonna be 1st class no matter who sings on top of that.So many people owe their careers to J&L,Babyface,David Foster&so on
@stewxl I dont think these guys get an inch of the credit they deserve for their contributions to the world of music. Everybody remembers NE,Janet,TLC,Whitney Houston but the genius behind those hits are always forgoten
@jovanloveless You are correct. Sometimes they try to do too much with the tracks with switching them around. This the way the song is supposed to sound. Its the reason i have it on the Ipod... its dope as hell.
@OriginalJoeyWales I know that would be tight this smooth song playing while finding ballas
