[fryelee11]

My favorite Anita Baker song!

[discomonkey56]

This is what REAL MUSIC is supposed to sound like, not the CRAP that people are listening to today.

[phatrydez]

@discomonkey56 You are so spot on! I'm 25-years old (a little young). I wish my generation would learn to appreciate the true essence of what love songs really are. This song came out the year I was born. We need to get back to what real R&B was meant to sound like...THIS!!!

[discomonkey56]

@phatrydez Thank you for your very kind words, If more people would choose to open their musical soul to what is real MUSIC, all this wack stuff that they are producing today would just go away. LONG LIVE REAL R&B, Peace and Blessings be upon you my R&B family.

[hedonisticbohemian]

....bought in 86, it still sends tingles down my spine,,,

[RJspAced]

[justaskelray]

[msg3tr1ght]

21 people have no joy in their lives

[Hehatemecuz]

When I'm relaxed this song touches my heart

[raven1always]

such a beautiful song, i grew up listening to this kind of music. Thank you momma. You bring me joy

[Wishin8YouWell]

To the broken hearted who were listening to this song, I just want to wish you well, and to let you know that others understand. The fact that you can love so strongly is a sign that you may find a responsive love that is equally deep and caring, in the future, with someone who is ethical and wonderful -- and honestly good to you. So, please outwait the pain. Better days will unfold.

[coneyisland30]
