I’ve always been so torn between absolutely loving when the beat drops & he starts singing but also not wanting the song to start yet because I’m so in love with the extended intro lol shout out to anybody else still listening to this in 2019 & beyond
I miss the reality of intimacy that this type of music evokes. That young kind of 80s and 90s love. I miss when men needed the chase and women craved the pursuit. I miss when gender roles were respected and practiced. I miss heaven on Earth.
I applaud artist like Musiq, Maxwell & Anthony Hamilton who use a variety of beautiful black women in their videos! It’s so refreshing to see!! Now if they can start making new music to counter the mess on the radio life would be good!
If I would describe how I feel about myself this song speaks for me, for so long I dealt with insecurities , tearing myself down, and just not knowing my worth. Until one day I decided to love me for me and give myself all of those things I was looking for from a man. This song reminds me of how beautiful I am and how worthy I am. To anyone looking for love externally, please give it to yourself first. Your first true love will be with yourself ( inner self) .
Update: it’s 4 months later and I finally learned to truly love me and pour into my own cup. The ending of one story is the beginning of another just 4 months ago I was in a situation where I had no choice but to choose myself…it was the only way out. No it wasn’t easy but man it feels good to be on the other side. Choosing me was the best decision I’ve ever made 💗💗.
Just BEAUTIFUL… 3:33 is the lyrical part, if you’re impatient. 🤗 My 14 yr old son was like: “When the song gone start???” 😂 I saw him in concert as a surprise bday gift from my mom & I CRIED when she gave me the tickets! I was in my late 20’s at the time. I’m 51 now & STILL ADORE THIS MAN & his beautiful songs. ❤️
At first, during the silence, I was eagerly anticipating the words but as the silence progressed, I got into it so deep that when the words came I longed for the silence.
Nice riding through the city music, u and ya chick, wifey! Heading somewhere nice. Not saying anything just listening to the words. Saying ever thing we NEED to say to each other, without saying a word! NOW that's quality time!
This an absolutely beautiful video. Thank you Musiq. As a Black woman, it makes me feel so good. I am about to cry. Sometimes I feel beat down, not appreciated. Simply beautiful. This a video that lures you in and forces you to think and wonder. It takes you on a mental and emotional journey. This quiet story telling. My soul smiles brotha.
Beautiful song for a wedding! I used the extended intro for my wedding ceremony. It's the song everyone walked down the isle to. I walked down to a different song my husband picked out, but I picked this one for the rest of the wedding party. I could listen to this song, the extended version specifically, all day!
One morning perhaps two weeks ago I heard a still small voice say: "You're so beautiful". Bless the Lord' God! So my first search came to this song and video.. Now that's amazingly supernatural.
The intro's so quiet & beautiful, just as he's expressing the word in his song, way 2 go Musiq, thank u 4 ur contributions 2 what being a gentleman & illustrating what love should be & feel like
+Tawasha Walker The intro is my favorite part too! I come to this video and play it over and over again because of the intro. I had my husband walk down the aisle to this intro at our wedding. I just love it :)
I'm not even in love, but this certainly makes me feel that way. Love the way it makes me feel. Ever since I heard this back in '09, it's been a favorite of mine
i been watching this video since i was a kid , and i been following you since 2016 , when i found out that was you in that video , was like last year when you posted it on ig , idk its a crazy nostalgic feeling to be following the girl from my favorite video and song of all time , swear i didnt even know it was you til last year , that made me your biggest fan lol
Yes me too but I really pray and wish I could find one, Now days this generation don't want anything serious and it's hard to find a real man it's like you have to choose between getting hurt or staying lonely sadly cause people always coming with an agenda now.
This is real shit and I get a crazy vibe from this joint.. Reminds me how it's suppose to be with meeting someone and getting to know them before intimacy ..
This song is the very essence of the African culture which resides in this country. I also enjoy how he express the true art of the black women in positive light that at that time our were respected and admired. Music like the song I just listened to is need today. Also what I deeply respect of him is how took control of the songs and image he portrayed not the industry
Never forget what these type of songs mean to your inner spirt... there are always great memories connected to them. Although nothing lasts forever. Still it's... So beautiful.
I think nowadays people forget that back in the day it was more about lyrics in the songs that came out. A lot of younger people don’t appreciate this type of music so these artist are forgotten about. If anyone else like me wonder where are these talented people today and why haven’t they came out with more. I get times change and everyone wants to hear these booty songs, making money, the cars and etc. These type of songs is what makes us black people so well rounded and creative something I’ve feel we lost along the way. We wonder why other races look at us differently because of the type of music coming out today and don’t take us seriously. Well of course their going to be dancing to it and thinking it’s a way to poke fun of how they dance to certain black music like rap. Think about it, are we moving backwards as black people or forward? I challenge a lot of the new generations to go back and actually listen to the lyrics of the songs and the message it is relaying. You be surprised. I want to recommend R&B singer Christopher Williams songs a most talented and underrated singer. He has a lot of good stuff and all his albums.
The intro is butter 🧈 The mix of high pitched lead vocals with the monotone voice singing the loop is a not to be slept on… Prince would use this method
I LITERALLY WITNESSED THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED IN HER .. I STILL FEEL HER SPIRIT AN PRESENCE SOMEHOW .. ( if I could get her back an had done things differently ... Wish she could see how I've grown and I miss her so much 💔 ) ..
MY EX HAD THE NERVE TO EVEN TAKE THIS ALBUM WHEN WE SPLIT! LOL! ONE OF MUSIQ'S BEST EVER. YES I BOUGHT IT BACK! HIS GREATEST ALBUM I FEEL. SHOULD GET MORE SHINE B/C MUSIQ, YOU ARE A STAR! LOVE THIS!
Song reminds me of my wife. Miss and love her so much. RIP, baby..

I guess he's not diabetic.
He does and outside of his videos too lol, he used to date India Arie and has a baby with the lead singer of 702.

I feel you especially on the gender roles part. Nowadays men don't pursue women, they want you to pursue them LOL
Nah that's garbage. If you like a dude pursue him, and if a guy likes you he should do the same. Fuck gender roles they're bullshit constructs
perfectly said
YahnaElon we have to bring it back by visualizing it and doing it!

I love the extended intro. This is like laying in your bedroom daydreaming with these instrumentals playing.
That’s currently what I’m doing. Enjoying life!

Yessss...I'm doing it right now !

Yep! Beautifully done: I like the elegant black and white layout!

Chris Green No but good lookin' out. I don't listen to the radio anymore so I'm often delayed on knowing when REAL music come out.
I like black women but I don't think they are attracted to Hispanics. Hopefully I can find one that's into the same music :)
***** Yes we are
***** No offense but you done killed our vibe. Latina, Italian, American..as long as we like the same music..we are on the same page!

This an absolutely beautiful video. Thank you Musiq. As a Black woman, it makes me feel so good. I am about to cry. Sometimes I feel beat down, not appreciated. Simply beautiful.
This a video that lures you in and forces you to think and wonder. It takes you on a mental and emotional journey. This quiet story telling. My soul smiles brotha.
You are beautiful queen sincerely from a black king 😢❤️

Real talk!!!!

0:01-3:31 The intro is so soothing 😩👏🏾
This was his masterpiece in my opinion. Everything led up to this joint.
This song always keeps me mind calm and brings me peace... fell in love with it in the summer of 2016 and been playing it ever since.
Such an underrated singer, beautiful song. 2020???

I have all his CDs and I play them LOUD!
I enjoy the extended version, u can really sit back and think about  women who's in your life
I really, REALLY NEED this extended version! It gives me EVERYTHING!!!!!! This music soothes my entire being...
I can’t go a day without listening to the extended version
There's is no pain like losing the love of your life. Lost mine in 2017. My condolences and prayers to all of you guys
I am so glad music like this exists
Now this brother is extremely underrated. Music Soldchid came out with great writing and songs that brought meaning that's missing today.
It’s the intro for me... 😍
When the trumpet 🎺 drops is all for me!!!! I want sing this in my wedding someday.
Real Music at its best thanks music for dropping this cut.
This reminds me of my research. Men like Miles Davis had to argue and stand their ground just to have beautiful, Black sistas on their covers.
This is the kind of song you could listen to all day and not get tired of hearing it.
2024. This is such a masterpiece.
10 years later and this song is still hot! August 2020 - Pandemic, and we're jamming. Classic.
Never grows old.
This is what we have been missing. If anyone could bring that old thing back it is Musiq Soulchild!!
Still one of my favorite songs of all time. right up there with Floetry "Say yes". And I mean the extended version, Wow!
Wow. This and Floetry - Say Yes are my two favorite songs!

The entire song & video goes together in perfect harmony!!! We need more artist like Musiq Soulchild who will bring the "Real Music" back into focus.
One of the greatest love songs ive eva heard.
this song is beautiful within itself because some women who are beautiful are insecure but musiq made sure to tell a woman she's beautiful
