  • for me this is the most beautiful song of nelly :)

  • DIS SONG TOUCHES MY HEART..I CAN FEEL IT MOVE ALL THRU ME...LOVE IT..LOVE U NELLY

  • @JezKJohnsonJnR No worries. =]

  • Just to give proper credit where credit is due, please don't thank Nelly for this song. While the lyrics may be different, Is a total rip off of the old CLASSIC PM Dawn song "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss", and the "awesome sample" everyone loves is from the song "True" by Spandau Ballet. And as for Nelly, well, anyone can rewrite lyrics to their own liking.. but he can't take credit for this song to me, and ought to respect his sources, of which i heard no mention in the lyrics or credits.

  • @sobaixu PM Dawn's "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss" sampled Spandau Ballet's True,as did this song-as have others. Nelly didn't "Rip off" PM Dawn. That's like saying PM Dawn eipped off Spandau Ballet! The right to use the sample is agreed to and paid for. Personally,I love this song and the message in it!

  • @JezKJohnsonJnR LOL. A simple thank you would have done you know! =P

  • @JezKJohnsonJnR Think it was called smart guy?

  • this song is awsome

  • this song is true and awsome i love nelly

  • That's why Nelly is my number 1...

  • N I say dis is one of da best songz eva :)))

  • N Dey Say that Nelly isn't a "conscious" rapper when this is one of the most conscious songs that I've ever heard. Peace.

    A SCOTTTCROPO PRODUCTION KEEPING IT REAL SINCE' 81

  • i luv it wen his voice is like singing but rapping :D

  • @happyizzytime That's what Nelly is known for. This is like country-rap. If you didn't know, Nelly came from a rather country or rural background, so that kind of plays a role in how he raps/sings. Listen to his other songs, too. You can hear his country accent in probably all his songs. Country Music Television's official website has a little artist page for him, too. I guess he could be considered a country singer.

  • THIZ USE 2 B MY SHIIIIT!

  • great song, fashawn, talib kweli, evidence, are some of the few along with lupe fiasco, that are not part of this commercialized bullshit, rap was at its best 15 years ago.

  • bless u grl...great song means so much

  • ...Angel, "That that don't kill Ya will only make you stronger". You on your way to becoming one of the strong women we need in this society. If its a boy be sure he's embraced by men. Uncles, Cousins, etc.. Real men that will guide him in a good direction. "The will to succeed 'll only feed the hunger". The only thing that will allow you make it thru rough times is that innate desire to be successful. Don't loose it for yourself or your child.... BE ENCOURAGED! I feel for you.....

  • nelly iz da shiznatz man !!

    i luv every 1 of his songz!

  • great song

  • "How can something as simple as general conversation mean much more than general conversation" - now that's a tight rhyme:) Good song though. The only thing I'm wondering, is why do so many rnb and rap performers have to sample someone else's music, instead of making their own...

  • The history of music is so rich, that a lot of musicians choose to give homage to past musicians thru their own music..... Not to be an A##, but you took the meaning of the rhyme away in error...."How can something as simple as general conversation mean much more than general "compensation".
