  • This video is so profoundly representative of the album at large: Sexy, but tasteful

  • Luv the instruments played in this song. Maxwell sexy be jammin!

  • So naughty but yet....so SEXY!! (Sorry!) Is that Kerry Washington? She's talented actress!

  • maddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!

  • Almost dejavue...love this video!

  • i m not a big fan of Maxwell but i love this song. he is so sexy and i think he has one of the most kissable mouth ... are you agree ladys ?????

  • I love the lyrics....... sexy as hell

  • I feel like this video applies to my sex life without the wedding ring, excellent video!

  • I love this song!!!!!!

  • Oh man what a come back i just love this man's music Maxwell is just so dammmmmmmmmmmmmmm FINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • i like the fact that this video is tasteful in what the song depicts....too much stuff nowadays is tacky! (would be happy 2 meet him in the same hotel though... (",) )

  • @myqueenbee27 so true, it was well done. Very classy!

  • that was...AMAZING omg. I love maxwell and his music.

  • WOW!  That was hot :-P

  • Sensuous

  • this video hot gave me tht feeln haha

  • and i must say that keri washington is one beautiful and talented black woman! i think that she is a role model for young women everywhere, especially since i first saw her in "save the last dance." LOL love both keri and maxwell. they make a cute couple here. :D

  • i've loved maxwell since way back when he came out with "fortunate." he has the type of voice that makes a woman melt inside! im glad he's back, we need some REAL R&B right now! not that what's out today isn't good because a lot of it is, but most of it is lacking. maxwell is bringing the true essence of R&B back! i <3 maxwell!!!

  • @AquaLuvr22 OMG Nobody could have said it better! I'm LOVE his music! it's so... real.

  • yeaah, soo truee.

  • Its touches me, it remind me of her

  • MAGIC

  • yes....

  • So perfect

  • No words to describe....i luv da song its a touch dat ppl r wanting to hear now a days.

  • This is that ole soul we've been missing. The return of horns, real music arrangement with lyrics that strike every chord in a music lover's heart. And he knows he picked a diamond with one of the baddest young sistas next to Nia Long and Taraji.

  • I love this song, am young but i am a young old head i love oldies R&B love songs, the are so real....not like most of the stuff today. Gimme Maxwell, marvin, aretha, bobby womack, sam cooke, or al green anyday

  • cool

  • This is straight music its not fag music like the Jonas Brothers

  • sounds just like my life!

  • Maxwell is so sexy!!! I saw him here in Atlanta on yesterday!! He gave a wonderful concert! I am still over here reminiscing!

  • why aren't more people into this song.

    Maxwell came back kinda strong

  • Comment removed

  • Well i think its because you have other R&B acts like Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, The Dream, Tre Songz, Lloyd, Jeremih etc. So those guys are relatively new and someone like Maxwell is considered as being an old time soul singer. While those guys have a pop edge due to how their songs sound or how they appeal to younger women

  • don't you mean "how these youngster appeal to , "Them young hoes"

    Get it right bruh-hahahaha

    most of these young musicians don't know nothing about "Love Songs"-

    Its all about sucking and licking, and sticking my you know what in your you know what--

  • Marvin Gaye, Isley Brothers, Barry White all of them talked about the same sucking, sticking & licking like the singers do now.

  • lol

  • COMPLETELY RIGHT

    I couldnt say it any better lol lol

  • OMG!!! This is my SONG!!! DAMN!!! lol

  • hot song, hot video and hot girl. I love me some Kerri Washington and Maxwell, I don't even have to say it. The boy is bad to the very bone.

  • lord how i wish i was keri in this video..maxwell is so fine and sexy in this.

  • All I can say is HOT, HOT, HOT!! Wheew, I'm all hot & bothered~ Good work Maxwell & Keri :D

  • I am 21 years old and i have been in love with maxwell and his voice sing i first heard his voice. He has the most beautiful voice in the industry, hands down. Love this man!!!!!

  • In response to some confusing comments, I wish they would have included the beginning of the song in the video, he is not actually having a physical affair it is all in his MIND!

  • BREAK IT DOWN!!

  • 1. In the video he gets an invite with key in his pad with his woman living there?

    2. the lyrics mentions seeing his "fantasy woman" Kerri W. in the nude etc. and ask forgiveness from his woman?

    3. in the video he just happens to see his "fantasy woman" Kerri W. while with his woman?

    Listen to all the lyrics, it's all in his MIND....

  • proper! niice - thanx for breakin it down - ii appreciate it even more :)

  • Heru3737 I have to respectfully disagree, when he performed this song in the concert I attended, he suggested that the song is simply about two people who are addicted to eachother sexually to the point that it's become a bad habit to break. Maxwell made no mention about some fantasy woman scenario, matter of fact quite the contrary. The video is about a married/tormented man caught up in an ongoing/illicit affair, that has him confusing lust with love for his bad habit which is his mistress !..

  • He and is art work is always left open to interpretation, that's the way he is, I always thought he was Trinidadian and Puerto Rican, until he finally revealed at MSG he was Haitian, which I argued with maipai101, but he is soooo mysterious sometimes, I think he is opening up more like Prince.

    What's his real first name?

  • That's Right!!!!!!

  • this is my shit...maxwell has great songs

  • So sexy

  • y am i 19 and seriously in love with him!!! he is the sexiest thing ive ever seen!!!!!

  • oh So Sexy !!!

  • this video is so sexy. damn!!

  • Keri Washingtonis so beautiful

  • She played the good girl in Ray. She doesn't always play a slut.

  • Love it...he cut some of the song but all I need is what he gives...

  • Just converted this to a Ringtone on Tube2Tone

  • Kerry Washington...wow!

  • He is so hot in the video. Made me feel the same. Fire!

  • So Sexy!

  • kerry look like she lost a lil weight in the face... but shes still pretty and I like this song... the cd version better

  • His voice is like magic take u too sum other places mannnn hiss voice is so beautiful !!!

  • After seeing this video, the gay rumor is of a LESS concern for me - I DONT CARE!!! LOL....I just want to eat him up...as soon as he comes to LA I'm getting my mind right for him....

  • can someone tell me word that decribes this man..cuz i just dont know... And yes kkkyree he can get it hard... it looks like from 95% of the women up on here:) it makes no sence...He wants to prove it to him in the nude??? he just dont know:)

  • I love Maxwelll he is the hotness... I got a question this guy i'm interested in called me a bad habit is it a compliment or not??

  • OMG.. MAXWELL CAN GET IT... YES LAWD. HE IS COMING TO Atlanta,GA Oct 5. yes the light bill will be late and i will be at the concert lol lol... love the video. how i wanted to be Kerry Washington.. you know who else could of played the part? Sanaa Lathan and Nia Long would of set it off. but Kerry did her thang.. Peace

  • I did the same thing when he came to TN I used the cable and utlity money to drive 4hrs to see him

  • lol me and mama going to see him in atlanta i looove kerry she go hard

  • I agree with bajantanmarind - I could just eat him up....ummmmmm.....this was hot but Til The Cops Come Knockin will always be my favorite Maxwell video....I just love him so

  • I just want to eat him up no utensils required. Love this song, Love this man, Love this video!!!!!

  • REAL SINGING BETTER THAN NE-YO

  • The sexiest video I've ever seen!!!!! Without a doubt!!!! But what I love even more is that it has so much class to it!!!! It wasn't necessarily too revealing, it was just enough to grasp my attention while leaving something to the imagination!!!!!

  • dis song iz HOTTT!!!!

  • omg! maxwell is sooooooooo damn fine! lol ,ilove this song,video is sexy! LOVE his whole album,he is so soulful w/his music. He definely came back strong! (:

    btw; thanks burkledoof for posting this!

  • maxwell got serious swagg.. he can get it!

  • I know thats RIGHT! lololo... I'm would like to have just a piece of it....LOLOLOL

  • Well, Damn! This is one of the best vid's this year!!!

  • i am in love with Maxwell and Blacksummersnight ive always loved him but this was just justification as to why!

  • Maxwell is still just as sexy as ever! I love him!!!!! The video is hot!

  • my auntie said this video wasn't for children, and she was right. DAMN! video was great, i didn't think he would be cheating, but now i can see that with the lyrics.

  • man can't remember if i already commented on this, cuz i've watched this video a zillion times! LOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!! HOOT. Love the lyrics though..he's bananas!

  • The video concept was excellent and VERY well executed.....Maxwell, your sound is so amazing EVERYTIME

  • steamy

  • And to the person that said Kerry Washington should not do any more sex scenes in her movies like someone is making her do them, please stop making me laugh. My stomach is hurting. She's a grown woman. I think I've seen Meryl Streep's and Kate Winslett's naked behind's more than I've seen my own and they are considered A-list top-notch actors. Sexuality is a part of the human experience. Why should she turn down a sexual role?

  • i don't think anybody can dispute that.

  • I kinda figured this song was about cheating before this video came out. I love it!

  • I love the suited look. The white shoes..lol...throw me off and make me laugh every time. I think if the suit was lighter the shoes would work for me. But, he's still sexy. LOVE the video. Hate cheaters. But, the video was beautifully made and I love the song. Oh and Kerry Washington is smoldering in this video. She turned it on didn't she? Do your thang girl. Do it!

  • Very nice! Kerry Washington is beautiful. Don't EVEN get me started on Maxwell....Wow.....How sexy is he?

  • This is SEXY. Cant wait to see him live.

  • absolutely love it! can not even describe it in words...I love Ms. Washington! & not to mention Mr. Maxwell!

  • agreed. lol

  • maxwell is so damn passionate,beautiful amazing and hes my habit... this video is so seductive it turned me on.. he so sexy.. all his songs always brings back old memories with my ex and I.. good memories..

  • People really know how to tear a bomb ass video apart. Goes to show who recognizes real music and who doesn't. Half the videos out there dont even match the songs! And I betcha the people so opinionated about Kerri arent content with their bodies. Maxwell and Kerri you did the damn thing! Keep up the good music and acting!

  • I'm born in the late 70's and I don't get mad about the music of today, because it is just how our parents ..well my parents felt when they heard our generation of music, which H-TOWN , SHAI, 69 BOYS, SALT AND PEPA, R KELLY ETC. My parents felt like our music wasn't music, now that most of have kids or our music have died down, here is the next generation music which is more of theme songs, dance themes which is my sister's music ,she was born in the early 90's

  • yassssssssssss this is real music fuck souljah boy and the rest of em maxwell is bringing it. Open your ears and minds this is it

  • hot!!!!

  • where they really having sex in the video

  • ya'll taking this way to serious. He's telling a story people. The way videos use to do, when they actually told a story. I love the song, the video, everything. And for the record: Never thought Maxwell was gay and still don't. Kerry is hot, don't hate her becuz she's comfortable with her body and sexuality.

  • Keri you a talented actress, the next script you pick up, drop it if it has you getting nailed!!!

  • o.k thats it, i love the song and i love maxwell, but i have to start this petition and its been in the making for a long time now...... My petition is to the movie industry to please please stop Keri Washington from getting f*cked in movies. Every time I see this women she is in a mistress role...or getting f*cked. Off the top of my head "king of scottland", She hate me, why i married my wife, lake view terrence,. Need i go on?

  • Ok...yeah, that was a bit much

  • Ya'll musta forgot how freaky and nasty the other songs were. "Lose myself inside your ebony"??? I mean really, maybe he's just tryna redefine himself and get some more clout. They all do this at some point...Common, Musiq, all of em..

  • yeah,but he only used metaphors he didn't perform a simulated sex scene.

  • I thought Max was so religious and stuff. He needs to get them the edit the sex scenes out. They are hot and all, but he lowers himself by going that far. Almost as though the record company feels as though they have to prove the everyone that he's heterosexual. Great job! Now that we "know" that he's not gay, we now know he has no values/morals.

  • I guess I'm the only fan who thinks that Max has just sold out to the devil. Up to now he always had his integrity in his videos. It was hot though! Pray for Max!

  • The best video he's done since Fortunate. Kerry never looked better.

  • The Fortunate video was weak.
