Lol I have no Idea how this song just randomly popped into my head I haven't listened to this in years.... But now I remember why I loved her so much her voice is so beautiful
This song used to come on Vh1 in the mornings when it came out 11 years ago & I was 11 years old. I loved it so much it made me feel so nostalgic for a time and place that I never knew. I lost it for these 11 years but thought about it ALL THE TIME I didn’t know any lyrics or that this was Chrisette Michele so I thought I’d never hear it again. I heard it while grocery shopping yesterday and I started tearing up when I realized it was the song I’ve looked for for all these years. Yesterday i also got out of a five year relationship so now I’m listening to this & shedding tears lol. It came around at the perfect time and as a 22 yo who has experienced heartbreak it makes sense in a way that it never did to my 11 year old self. Thank you so so so much Chrisette Michele for making this magical music.
THE YEAR WAS 2007, I HAD JUST BROKEN UP WITH MY GIRLFRIEND, OR RATHER SHE BROKE UP WITH ME.....I WAS WORKING THIRD SHIFT, GOT OFF WORK AT 7 AM DROVE HOME PLAYING THIS, THEN SAT IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH THE ENGINE OFF LISTENING TO IT SOME MORE UNTIL MY EYES GOT WATERY, AND A FEW MANLY TEARS RAN DOWN MY CHEEK FOR HER. I SAT THERE FOR ABOUT AN HR, MEDITATED, THEN MOVED ON. TOTALLY AT PEACE WITH IT. RIGHT AFTER HER I RECONNECTED WITH MY HIGH SCHOOL CRUSH. WE PLANNED ON A SUMMER FLING. IT LASTED 3 YEARS. I WAS BLESSED. LOL. SINCE 2010 I'VE AFTER SHE BROKE UP WITH ME, I'VE BEEN A BEAST. MORE MONEY, KNOWLEDGE, WISDOM, AND MUSCLE THAN EVER BEFORE. TIME SURE DOES FLY, DOESNT IT?
i heard this song years ago. I woke up to it on mtv or something. I didnt have a dvr at the time and I never heard it again. I searched for it over and over and I tried to type in the lyrics I remembered and finally found it... holy shit!
Chrisette Michele is one of my favorite singers I mean like her voice is unique and I haven't heard a song by her that I didn't like. I could listen to either one of her albums all day long and never get tired of hearing the absolute talent I know she posseses.
When I first heard her song, I never heard anyone sing this way in 2009 Now its 2020 and I am still listening to her music. Powerful lyrics. Underrated Artist.
If this song just randomly popped in your head. God is sending forth healing from that relationship that broke you. He's restoring you and showing you your true identity IN CHRIST ‼️ Hang on and endure restoration is here. Study the promises of God in His word so you can stand against the lies of our own mind, emotions, and the enemy. Shalom
literally the song on my life right now. ex wanted marriage, I asked to wait til he finished school and I finished my 1st yr back in school, end up breaking up over it and brutha gets engaged/married less than 1yr later. sigh haha. But what's meant for me will come, patiently waiting tho :P
Awesome song. Awesome composition. Awesome lyrics. Even amongst all the rap crap out there - there's still a gem to be had. Thank God! Keep it coming Chrisette..."You've found a fan in me!"
The song just started playing where I’m at and I tell ya I haven’t heard this song in forever. I definitely wasn’t expecting that to be Chrisette Michele.
half of the range!cut the girl some slack.lol...sometimes its not all about vocal gymnastics..i guess songs and artistes moves individuals in differents ways..
adebola oyeleye i understand that. but, neither corrinne's vocal ability OR styling are in the same ballpark as chrisette. sorry. they have almost nothing in common vocally. corrinne is milktoast - totally bland.
@@orangemoonglows2692. I agree she has the best singing voice (that’s her in the photo)and I’m here because I like them both. But don’t discredit Corrine, her voice and angelic nature is extraordinary unique, I’ve heard this voice before but you will never hear a voice like Corrine’s again as long as you live.
@@kennethanderson-wd2cx there is almost nothing special about corinne. you think you won't ever hear a voice like corinne? omg. lol. jhene aiko, summer walker, sza and ari lennox all have a similar tone and sound as corinne. their style is just different from corrine's. but nobody sounds like chrisette right now.
Love this song! when it first came out, I was pregnant and had just ended my relationship with my child's father. this song helped me through that time #timelessmusic
When the "I AM" album first came out I was going through a break up and this was one of my favorite songs on the album. Also the song "Be Ok" helped me feel better and move on. I love Chrisette Michelle's music!
trust. she may not be so popular but she has thousands of fans. i went to a concert of hers yesterday and i couldnt even get it...too many ppl. i wanted to cry, and still want to
This is the song where i got to know who Chrisette Michele was and I fell in love with her. She's so talented and yet underrated. To see her is just to love her!!!
I literally just found this on the radio like 4 months ago, I had _no _*_idea_* is was 11 years old... Why the hell haven't I heard more of this artist?
Hard to believe this was released so long ago. Also hard to believe this song is a cover -- she really made it her own. This rendition of this song means a great deal to me. Many thanks to CM for recording it.
12 HATERS!! I love Chrisette Michele, saw her live once and she killed it!! I love music period!! It helps me cope with life as I struggle to lose 300 pounds. Any advice on how to best go about losing weight without surgery, or help or friendly suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
I love this song and Chrisette! Ten people don't know real music when they hear it!! She is a true vocalist. She studied jazz greats such as Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughn, and Ella Fitzgerald when she was in college. You can definately hear that influence in her voice.
Forgot about this song. Was in Walmart the other day and it played on the loud speaker. I immediately Shazamed it and added it to my Apple playlist. November 2020. Trump vs Biden , Covid 19 are the current US headlines and I miss my Indiana. Maybe we will be cool again. I can’t wait for this pop back up on my timeline 5-10 years from now. I know I’ll be happy and a multimillionaire in love and Traveling. 🌸
i like this because she is talking about a relationship that was oh so lovely, but she realize it was time for her to find the best of me. she is ok with moving on...and knowing when it is her time it will be. i needed this song this morning...relationship is over...it was good until he cheated. loved him, was broken hearted, even thought i could stay...but it's time to find the best of me.
The first time I saw Chrissette was watching this video. I was blown away by her beauty and her singing style, very classy and sophisticated, did I mention her eyes? Truely mesmerizing baby!!!!!
I am one of Chrisette's Biggest fans, threr are some huge fans out there! But I want to gain a friendship with her, her artistry is amazing, true definition of a genius
OOOOOO I love this song, and her voice is exquisite. I have so much fun harmonizing with this song LOL. Saw it on You Oughta Know on VH1 some yrs back...Love.
Love this song to this day!!! She is too beautiful with those big eyes. This song has that jazz beat to it. I bet she'd be wonderful in the studio with singing jazz. She is a star!!!!!!
first time hearing her. usually singer sings song like this with anger like emotions(like as if someone did something wrong). But here, she sing this song with an awsome feeling ( a feeling that departing mean it's the best for both). Sometimes it really is. i love the song and her deep voice calming voice.
I can't get away from her eyes, her smile,.... I know that there's beauty in simplicity, but this woman is simply beautiful...... She's dope... Damn, one day I'll find one like her...
I'm so glad I'm strolling and finding and remembering such wonderful music. Her voice is delicious. It reminds me of my days in Chicago. So much good music and fun.
love your uniqueness songbird diva!! you match your jazzy, songwriting, piano playing self...keep doing you lady..be original....and happy birthday!!!!
Lol I have no Idea how this song just randomly popped into my head I haven't listened to this in years.... But now I remember why I loved her so much her voice is so beautiful
Lol I'm here again 2018
And in 2019 too💕😁

@@PorsheNichelle come back 2020
2021
One of my all-time favorite songs. “My momma made me much wiser. What’s mine will be just for me, yeah.” And she looks amazing!!!
This whole album is the bomb
She has that old school jazz voice. Incredible that someone could be so spot on when it comes to originality. Much respect.
Just what I said today Old School Old Soul......amazing song amazing voice
She has a relation to Ms Ella Vaughn
Another underrated songstress. Love her!
U r right about that.......
Word. 😉
This was my heart broken song but now its a happy song . A song of strength. I love it :)
Me too
I was today years old when I found out this song was written and produced by the legend that is Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds.
This deserves so much more recognition her music is amazing and just so soulful and relaxing. Nothing harsh like nowadays.
I agree
Javonda Renee amen
I hate to say it if a white artist released this it would have went diamond,and she would have a Grammy for album of the year.
This is when I fell in love with her
right. I heard it in a grocery store a year or two after it came out and had to find it right away.
Same here, man!
Me too💚
Hard not too
Me too
She is Beautiful and I love her jazzy voice!
Chrisette is classy and gifted. Nice to see.

what I love about this song is she's not even trying, she just sounds like an angel for no reason.....it's lovely.
Coming home from work, stressed completely out... put this video on, forget what I was mad about. Good music is a privilege.✨✨

This song sounds as if it'll be one of those Timeless songs. ...and that it'll live on forever.
As long as there are.people who can relate to this song then it will last forever
+jnefitema yep yes ..it also sounds like it should've had great crossover success. Songs very catchy with a nice hook. I think a great one got away!
i heard this song years ago. I woke up to it on mtv or something. I didnt have a dvr at the time and I never heard it again. I searched for it over and over and I tried to type in the lyrics I remembered and finally found it... holy shit!
This is still one of my favorites, I low key wish I could get this version of her music back .
Me too 😔
one of the best break up songs
Babyface lyrics + Chrisette Michelle voices = ART. This is so beautifully painful.
Wow!!!!!!!! Her Eyes will make Me tell the Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth. Her Eyes along with Everything else are So Beautiful.
Chrisette Michele is one of my favorite singers I mean like her voice is unique and I haven't heard a song by her that I didn't like. I could listen to either one of her albums all day long and never get tired of hearing the absolute talent I know she posseses.
I could buy this album twice and feel like I short changed her...its that good
Kentrel Boyd same
I got it 3 times and she signed the first one on her first tour house of blues New Orleans
When I first heard her song, I never heard anyone sing this way in 2009 Now its 2020 and I am still listening to her music. Powerful lyrics. Underrated Artist.
Can't believe I haven't heard this song in years. This was the first song of hers that I heard and thought, Wow, what a voice.
2022… people don’t know about this classic right here.. Wayyyyyy understated
Fewer things are as lovely as this song on a cool Sunday night drive. Chrisette : breathtaking
One of my favorite songs. She's so under rated as a artist

I've heard this song at the radio at work. It took me so long to find, but it was so worth it. I got chills when I heard her voice.
I just love her vibe and how mellowed out she is. Her songs are so relaxing. She could sing all day for me.
Awesome song. Awesome composition. Awesome lyrics. Even amongst all the rap crap out there - there's still a gem to be had. Thank God! Keep it coming Chrisette..."You've found a fan in me!"

she reminded me of corrinne bailey rae....epic voice..shows you dont have to be half naked in vedio to make sense..
adebola oyeleye corrinne could only hope to have half of the range and vocal ability chrisette has.
half of the range!cut the girl some slack.lol...sometimes its not all about vocal gymnastics..i guess songs and artistes moves individuals in differents ways..
