Damn!!!!! I was playing the life out of this song when I was 14 years old, over a boy 😂🤣 and now fast forward I’m married to my soulmate with 4 children living my dream life 🥰✨👏🏾
Listening to this song this morning reminded me of me and my husband. He has passed on, but for those that go through a rough patch; You should reflect on what made you love the person you are with. Never let anyone or little things come between you and your mate. ALWAYS have each others back....period!!!!! Keep God as the foundation! RIP Jas. I miss being loved and having someone have my back but I am grateful for the experience!
This song speaks of all the struggle we as women go thru just to be with the man we love there's not another that can make us smile inside then turn around and make us sad but we know it's him and no one will do what he does a full grown man. I GOT ONE
Song still brings me to tears. It’s such an underrated song. I love Mary!!!!!! My fave singer of all time!!!!! Queen of HipHop Soul. She deserves all the gifts. She never never ever ever turned her back on us fans ... even in her darkest days. We will STAY DOWN, period! ♥️
People aren't like this anymore. This displays the true definition of love. Fighting through the hard times is the beauty, the masterpiece of being in love with each other.
What's good, MJB family? My first wife did not stay down, even though I told her it would be worth it. She was not the one. My second wife and I have nearly eleven years now including the dating years, and she is the one for sure. Her kids are now my kids, and we are on our way to being the family I alwas dreamt of. God bless us all! #staydown
To her ex husband…In my Fred Sanford voice “you big dummy” She’s at the very best part single and available to a man who will appreciate her…from her fan… thanks for moving out the way ✌🏽😂😅
This song helped get me thru a 6 yr prison bit while my ex husband was incarcerated. I stuck it out for that struggle only for him to come home n screw me over. Lesson learned to trust my gut!! But thanks Mary for getting us thru that tough time
Went through the same thing road 5 yrs wit my kids Daddy while he was in prison he did the same with me smh but hey its all good just now trying to try this thing call love again
Don't get twisted ladies,ain't nothing wrong with standing by your man but when find yourself giving more than what you're receiving, let it go. There's nothing wrong with putting yourself first.
Cali Dope ...yes, I am ole school but I don't view music as bad...and i can very much see God in many songs that wasn't written in the church...but the sentiments are true whether they are to a man...woman or God... for real...lol
"grown woman"--INDEED. Miss this grown music--I know it is still out there, but miss the days when it was the norm and we did not have to 'look' for it. Going to see Mary on one of her dates, fo sho.
Shantel Bradley i know i cry when I hear this song it reminds me of my ex husband i wish he would've stayed down but but he loves his mistress more after a 15yr marriage with me
Vincent G Wallace Sr aw.. mine love his mistress more then me also 5years strong , but god will restore us. he have something up his sleeve for us hunny😘😘
Anybody here in August 8 2024 Rip to my wife Barbara Ann Johnson Carter 37 Birmingham Alabama Happy anniversary baby love you Baby Sea Rock Chico 7:35 p.m😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
best bit of marriage counselling out there!! for me at least. beautiful song. keeps me grounded. reminds me to go back to when it started.. rewind and reset..
I can't think of 1 song, that this perfect Queen of Hip-Hop Soul has created, that hasn't affected someone's personal life, she's the true definition of beauty, heart, soul, raw talent, and blends everything so well together in her every songs, I've always rated her number one, she just seems to keep improving with each and every album released, her songs make you smile, they easily make you cry tears of happiness, sadness and joy, she has a song for more or less every situation of life, and every emotion ever felt, personally I don't think anyone will ever come close to Mary J Blige, I have great respect for all R&B Artists, from the late 70s, to now, but Mary J is the one for me, powerful emotional and deep, and so beautiful in every way, am still playing all her earlier songs still in 2018, long live our true Black Queen of Hip-Hop R&B........😙😙💑💃💃👍👌✌👑♨♨💯💯
@@kmelvin8790 Yes, but sometimes I wish I didnt have to relate to them, cos some experiences are all about some kind of emotional pain, distress or hurting, and that ain't what people want in their relationships, or marriages is it, and am sure we've all experienced a very negative unhappy emotions mood or feeling, related to the Queen of Hip-hop Soul's timeless ballads.....🥺😢😢
Before I listened to this song I was thinking about packing my things and leaving because I just don’t understand why my relationship has changed in a negative way. After listening to this song it’s amazing how I changed my mind and just stayed . I’m going to stay down and pray things well change . We have a lot of work !
Markets and then you can get a mdkdpfl test for the first one in my friend fog lights and yes and yes and then we can get ready to much better than we have been with them for them and the same number and phone number and phone number and phone number as well and then get ready for me Raerunk ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
Just think during this album it was all about her marriage, building , love and trying to let him understand her view for the better. He wasn’t even worth her time.
@@candiceblanding8436 This song is the start of a playlist on my Channel that I just created for my Husband yesterday. I Titled it. “Stay Down My FireFly🔥2024. He listened to it while he commuted home. And by the time he got to the house, he was in such an adorable state of mind. He plopped down on our bed and told me about his day at work. That’s nothing out of the ordinary for him to share his day, but the nuance that was different was: His 1ST stop wasn’t to the fridge for a beer. It was straight to me & into our bedroom.❤️🩹🔥🥺
1/11/2021 Happy 50th Mary J. Blige. You're a part of my childhood and my growth in adulthood and you're a treasure forever. This song is a part of my heart for life. Thank you Queen and many more birthdays to you!🎉🖤👑
I'm just me. As Mary J Blige sings this song it teaches me to keep moving forward and just think about myself. I'm a loner in reality and I'm proud to stay a loner. This is my song when I'm in my feelings. 🙏💖💕 #staydown
To you Nate. Love you. Sorry you passed and I miss you RIP 03/07/23, your going to be loved even in your death 🌺❤️🙏🏾 I wish we had more time 💔loss you a week ( today) anyone reading this please pray for me❤
Ain't it?!?!? Giving me the feels this morning. "one day we'll look back on this"--melody (?) in this part is how I first fell in love with this song when it came on.
I lost a great friend, a best friend, and a sister. And this song kept me going for her... Her personality was a one of a kind for me, no hate but love. C.C. I love you and I will always miss you, 8 years has been too long!! Family is family, blood or not! You had me like I had you. We stayed down! 💯💯
Amen! From start to finish on every MJB album, you will have reminisced, partied, laughed, cried, been in a catatonic state, wondered why, longed for that old flame, cried some more, came to terms with everything and by the end of all the albums, you're all healed! Thank you Dr. MJB!
I looooove this song,I love all Mary j songs,I listen to them all til this day.. her songs will never fade away to me cause she is so real and saying some real life..ish,I love her..
I absolutely rock with this jam. I won't belittle it by saying "One of my favorites" because MJB just has so many. This song saved a relationship that was worth saving. It was re-defined but we stayed down. That being said, it always make me lol when she throws in the that lil jab "Not Weezy like the son of Baby". Was that a lowkey diss? Or was she sending a shout out?
This use to be one of my favorite songs when this album came out, & I forgot all about it till today when it just randomly came on my UA-cam Playlist....I still love this song ❤❤❤
who's still here in 2024?🥂👌

This song is the jam...she said a lot, sadly her ex-husband missed it...
Her ex husband was a narcissist and it's always one sided with them.
Sh practically begged him.. Dis is similar 2 my case
He missed everything he's regretting it now
He didn’t deserve her
To her ex husband…In my Fred Sanford voice “you big dummy” She’s at the very best part single and available to a man who will appreciate her…from her fan… thanks for moving out the way ✌🏽😂😅
Every song Mary has ever made is timeless Love You Mary
This song could about a man, friendship or a ship (period)
This song helped get me thru a 6 yr prison bit while my ex husband was incarcerated. I stuck it out for that struggle only for him to come home n screw me over. Lesson learned to trust my gut!! But thanks Mary for getting us thru that tough time
I can relate to this 😢

It’s true and sometimes it’s hard to let go of that person it’s so hard
I really needed to see this. My situation right now trying to get strong enough to leave and start loving myself more. Thank you
@@marycrrillo3528 you are absolutely right, when you heart is in it you just can’t walk away. Women love hard
I had to let it go after almost 11 years...sometimes it still hurts jus knowing what I gave...
Love you Nip
