[Free5Skies]

EVERYBODY GO ON THE MTV SITE AND VOTE THIS VIDEO FOR A VMA! WE ARE LOSING AGAINST PANIC AT THE DISCO! MESSAGE ME FOR THE LINK! GO TLC!

[feetgarage]

When you think at all them other slutty whorish female rappers it irks me. Please someone hold my hair while I puke.......

Left-Eye was the shit! She was so cool and a free spirit :) A one of a kind! Just like TLC.

[MiaLeonora]

I always get a stomach ache when I listen to this song. It reminds me when I was a child, jamming this song in my room.

[JennyBurke33]

It sounds to me that Nicki Minaj is inspired by Left eye. R.I.P

[CookieCamCam]

Is left eye the one with the underline under her left eye? =))

[lbmadness]

thats "fat head" from the movie Ray at 1:30

[botbagel]

ALERT: We've a major hater here: apetheape9 Don't let anything this child of only 17 yrs of age upset you...she does it for fun...if you doubt what I'm saying, go check our the channel...full of comments from people this person has angered...so DON'T ALLOW THIS PERSON TO OFFEND YOU...children this age think they're 'cute' by being so immature and hateful while 'trying' hide behind the internet.

[kockville]

why do all the inspirational figures die young?

[marchgirl3000]

[PokePearlshippin011]

@PokePearlshippin011 Some people have no feel for the REAL music instead they're poisioned by the boogie music now a days if left eye was alive things would of ben differnt i bet

[r0b0tj0n3s]

why does r&b have to be about nothing but sexnow? where's the value? and they killed good hip-hop...replaced with gangsta rap for a quick buck.....our entire race is chasing waterfalls...

[77ukraine]

@i90sBABE Probably is HIV (the std he got)

[DancingLilT]

the guy sleeps with the girl and gets a disease that messes with his face and bones

[MegaButterflygirl123]

[IcedLipGloss]

left eye's voice is so damn hard to imitate. she really is one of a kind.

[kdl1993]

maaan songs like this makes me remember what a fantasuc rapper Left- Eye was. her voice was like no other

[moelevy21]

Love it!!!

[SKiTTZLOV3PSYCO]

i luv dis vid wen there on water!!

[botbagel]

Man, talk about one mean deep bass guitar...

[botbagel]

AriFeannor, I think I'm love with you due to your wisdom....SPOT ON!!!!

[botbagel]

Left-Eye-Lopez spit better than any other female in the past, during her time, and not another female can come close to her skill.....RIP BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND THANK YOU FOR BLESSING US WITH YOUR GIFT!!! You live on in my (our) heart(s)

[knightace2002]

@botbagel ya ik i loved this song and use to listen to it on the radio and sang along with it everytime it did

[apetheape9]

@botbagel Your only saying that because she is dead

[botbagel]

@apetheape9 You've misjudged me apetheape9...you truly have..but my ? to you is why judge me in the first place? You've never met me, don't know if I'm male or female, what my ethinicity is, age, country, religious preference, if any, you know nothing of me...care to explain to me why you 'believe' you 'know this about me'? Go ahead, give it a try..can't wait to hear this 'logic'....yawn

[apetheape9]

@botbagel Because I have said other artists are the best only because i was in the moment of listening to there song, when in reality there are many people better then them.

Left Eye is not the best female rapper and that is a fact.

[Demonna63]

@botbagel I 100% agreed with you,no one can come close to her, she is the best. This song came out about the time I was in high school, still loving it.

[botbagel]

Darling Left-Eye, I miss you so much love...There's one less star before my eyes, but one more overhead...love you lady....

[daqt1]

rip lisa

[zurrell]

Man this vid is like that, Takes us back to a time when music was really music. RIP LOPES

[buckeykentucky]

this song means aids

[botbagel]

buckeykentucky, there is a reference here for 'precious', however, the song is way deeper than what you either truly believe or would have someone else believe...If the latter is true, then that is one sad implication....You really should reassess your assessment of this song...

[vicrohxc]

I luv lefties rap ican do it to

P.S. dont think wrong

[JohnCenaLuver1175]

Also,

She was buried at Hillandale Memorial Gardens in Lithonia, Georgia. Here's an excerpt from the headstone over her grave like a bubble of a cartoon: "Who's to blame for tootin 'caine into your own vein? What a shame your shootin' aim for someone else's brain."

Rest In Peace Lisa.

Also, i take no credit of what i just wrote. I just thought it would be some good information for people who really care. I got it from the book "Where are they buried? " by Tod Benoit.

[frankgjustice]

@JohnCenaLuver1175  THANKS!

[JohnCenaLuver1175]

RIP Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes

Just to clear up some information heres how she died.

"She traveled to Honduras for a thirty-day spiritual retreat with family and friends.While driving a Mitsubishi Pajero minivan with seven passengers on a winding and rolling mountain road, Lisa lost control and the van went off road, flipping several times.Thrown from the vehicle, Lisa died instantly of head injuries, the sole fatality of mishap.She was only 30.

May 27, 1971 - April 25, 2002

[THESACYKIDS]

2 things she didnt lose control right away she was trying to go past another vehicle then she saw another car coming n she swerved n thats were it all fucked up..

n she didnt die right away a couple hours later she did they couldnt do anything to save her in the hospital..

[KxAxLxI]

the word is H.I.V

[JASZiEBAYBiE2189]

YA'LL S0UND S0 StUPiD;;

tHE THREE LETTERS ARE H.i.V

tHE BiTCH WAS A H0E, DiDN't Y0U N0TiCE tHE DiFFERENT NiGGAS PiCTURES??? && [HER] TAKiN THE C0ND0M 4RM HiM. . ?? PAY ATTENTi0N. . SMH

[christodia]

lmao thanks i needed that :)

[flybabygurl4life]

The ending with the boy trying to help carry the grocery into the house even after he was dead was the saddest to me because there are so many people I know like him. I tried to tell them but they won't listen. You kno no one can save them but themselves.

[flybabygurl4life]

I thought the three letters they meant was SEX. That's just me.

[alienbound]

Intensity of this song is AMAZING. makes you think huh!

[eveofblue]

This is probably my favorite song period (I luv left eye's part in this song the most)

[flybabygurl4life]

No song has ever been truer.

No more than eva.

[JemmBabess23]

Aids is and Std Derrr.... x

[AwsumoSt3phani3]

yea.. last time i checked that was a std.. same thing

[MsSCamilo]

The best song ever of TLC.

[MsSCamilo]

It really sad that Lisa passaway for about 8 years ago. She died so young.

[AwsumoSt3phani3]

Its about a guy sleeping around..

3 letters took him to his final resting place

STD..

[babygirl6706]

it wasnt a std....it was AID's

[sustainablejoel]

can anyone explain what the second verse is talking about? I dont get it.

[poohbear12389]

They r a good group

[sammybloo1]

I don't get the chorus but great song

RIP Lisa "left eye" lopes

[sugarcookies]

Dont go chasing waterfalls(This means that u shouldn't do something u can't handle);

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes thatYoure used to(Alway stay were you are in control);

I know that youre gonna have it your way ( u can be stubborn and have ur way but they kno that u will wind up dead or injured)Or nothing at all;

But I think you re moving too fast ( step back to think about it or slow down

[newyearbaby56]

[poojacrew]

she was trying to overtake a truck and another car was in the oncoming lane and she swerved all the way off the road and the van she was driving rolled over

R.I.P Left Eye

[mztallnsexy]

this is such a deep song...omg i cried when i first saw the video..hiv/aids kills so many ppl..dam

[Seattlecarnut]

I remember when I first saw the video. Just listening to the lyrics, I cried, because it seems to happen alot. And I thank God it hasn't happened to me. I've taken risks in my life, but so far nothing like what's in this video has happened, and I hope doesn't happen.

[suspee]

1st part about BIG L ??? Possible? Who has got more information about the content? True story, ... reminds me of a story somebody told me about BIG L. That he did not want his mother to come to jams to see him perform?!?!?!?!

[y4rii0nd3ck]

ii Lov3 DiS SoNg<3 rip L3Ft 3y3

[civilianlife]

it's shame what happened to LeftEye, she was approaching truth that many would have heard. A death of mysterious circumstances, we can only guess who's responsible. If people want to find truth, you only need to follow the path of blood that is there for all to see. This true throughout all of history, regardless of what the textbooks say.

[AriFeannor]

good group, good music, but some of the people commenting are morons, Left eye, yet cute, is dead because of an accident, not some conspiracy shit. Just pay your respects if you feel the need and leave it at that.

[asiaajackson]

@AriFeannor not true... it was a conspiracy watch her documentary... she was going to return from the bush with information that would heal all people... but the modern day medical system out of business... she was a student of dr. sebi...

[mzjerrica15]

dhiz is a real gewd song!!! i finally learned left eyez verse...lol!!! dhat gurl was 1 on dhee best female rapperz ever!!! r.ip. left eye luv n miss u

[OYLkaren2]

haha i agree left eye is like one of the best rappers

[bookiedogg]

[haleycute01]

[THATSINGERGIRL2]

THREE LETTERS H.i.V

BECAUSE THEY WERE D0iNG UNPR0TECTED SEX..

DUHHH!!

G0SH G0TTA BREAK iT D0WN F0R THA SL0W F0LKS

[littlebobcat10]

i think the 3 letters is S.E.X CAUSE THATS WHAT HE WAZ DOIN IN THE VIDEO

[daringnikki94]

no its was hiv /aids because he was having unprotected sex and thats their big thing cause left eye use to wear the condom in her glasses

[lnnnnnnn]

this is the bombest video ever

[jskegeejr]

Lefteye(with the blk line) did hit a little boy and she paid for his funeral...and she died later in a car crash...the woman who died in a plane crash is Aaliyah and shes not in this group or video

[LoverszObama]

i thought the three letters were R.I.P becuz it says that on graves...

3 letters took him to his final resting place

[jskegeejr]

three letters...H.I.V

[HQNN88]

"she said her name was left eye cuz I is Right" thats what she said

[perfectpaige100]

she's left eye coz she had a dodgy left eye and she wore a condom in the left lense of her glasses to promote safe sex. the three letter's are sex coz that is the activity that they were taking part in :P

[jskegeejr]

her eye worked fine and the 3 letters meant that he contracted H.I.V

[sykoknife]

HIV stupid fucks

[perfectpaige100]

the 3 letters could be sex?? its all related to that so.. just saying...

[IkutosLover]

the 3 letters are sex

[jaimityee12]

the three letters are either STD or HIV she took the condom from him in the scene

[crazychick6694]

Love This Song. Miss Them :'(

[AmberLeeSinger]

No the three letters are Die, Aid, or Hiv

[ojdj129]

no the three letters are h.i.v good loving health duhh

[chocoholic1996]

Why did she always put that black line under her eye?

[OYLkaren2]

Oh i thinks she wore that line under her eye because her boyfriend (well ex-boyfriend) Andre Rison was a football player who played for the Green Bay Packers. which i think that was y she had it under her eye

[mzjerrica15]

me 2

[IkutosLover]

because shes Left Eye

[chocoholic1996]

Yeah I know she's Left Eye, but why is she Left Eye?

[IkutosLover]

she did most things with her left eye and it started with an "L"

[Readii4Wateva]

no one of her ex boyfriends realized dhat her left eye was sliqhtly biqqer than the riqht

thatsz wre left eye came 4m

smarty mart

[lykkwoahh]

oh wait. my bad. i thought you were talking about the first verse. sorry. :)

[lykkwoahh]

no.

the three letters are G-U-N.

Not HIV.
