Mary looking good as usual.

WOW!

I love it! Nice and simple, the song speaks for itself. She looks great!!!

Mary gets the oscar for the nost drastic career and personal image transformation….GO MARY!

Mary looked beautiful, but the video bored me. Hype Williams and his excessive use of “green screen” is tired.

EWW !!MARY DONT SOUND THA SAME NO MORE TO ME ITZ SOUND WEIRD !SHE ALL SCREAMIN THOUGHOUT THA WHOLE SONG… NICE VID THO..LOVE HER HAIR

I luz Mary God Knows I do…but this video looks cheap and seems like I’ve seen it before. Love the song and she looks great as ususal.

love the new video.mary is the girl

that outfit is badd

im not really feelin the song tho…

DID YA KNOW, DID YA KNOW, DID YA KNOW, MARY THAT I LOVEEEEEEEE YOU!

I LOVE THAT IT SONG ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITES FROM THE ALBUM BUT THE VIDEO LOOKED REALLY CHEAP I WAS EXPECTING SOMETHING WAY BETTER THAN THAT!!! THE WHOLE VIDEO IT WAS THE SAME BACKGROUND AND ALL SHE DID WAS CHANGE OUTFITS AND WIGS!!!! BUT I STILL LOVE YOU MARY =)

love the song the video is wack it dont take way from the song nor do it add to it

um! Mary! I mean! why?! I expected a much, much, better video. It should have been conceptual! A story line would have been great! This looks rushed, it looks very similar to the New KC video/ HEAVEN SENT…I dont know….Hype, I mean seriously?!!!!

Mary, what a pretty, pretty song though!

They showed this in the background at the concert, and I feel as though this was a piss poor effort on Hype’s part. But Mary looked fab of course.

omg i have a cousin that looks EXACTLY like mary j. they even have that same ghetto look and swag, personality just everything she’s even her biggest fan

B E A U T I F U L ….the song and the video…. and i love the outfit shes rawking well everything but the shoes

Not feeling the National Geographic type video but I do like the song.

Hasn’t winter passed?

The song is beautiful, nonetheless.

I was sooooooo disappointed. I love this song but this video is boring.

Mary looks great and this is one of the best songs on her CD. But I hate when these directors all jump on the same bandwagon. First Benny Boom and Keyshia with the Hawaii scene and now this. I guess it’s easier to imitate than to innovate.

I like Mary alot but surely there must have been better songs on the album to release than this, Im not feeling it and dont think it will grow on me. The video looks cheap and the outfits look ghetto.

Mary has some major insecurities with her hair, on the Tyra show she was saying that she wished she had “Indian hair” and I was like wtf whats wrong with black hair? No wonder why shes always rocking these blonde wigs and blonde weaves. Its a shame that black women in the media have so much self-hatred-(Tyra, Bey and Mary are some of the biggest culprits of this type of mentality and it really pisses me off.

I last video I like what he did had Beyonce in but never-the-less Mary J is the bomb!!

Shesus Khrist!
Mary, how could you let me down this way.
I cannot take!
This video was very blah!
Mary, you usually get me with the videos, but this “Stay Down” was a major let down.
Just Fine to this shit?
Now release “Shake Down” and call it a day.

@ #13 & #21
Or maybe Keyshia was copying Mary?

Mary’s video “Everything” from 1997.

One of my Fav songs on the album & I’m not feelin’ the video!
Hype is SLIPPIN!

SHE PERFORMED THIS AT THE CONCERT IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY AND I SO DID NOT KNOW THIS SONG. LOL
I LIKE IT NOW!
I LOVE HER WHOLE LOOK = ]

Wow…how unoriginal is Hype Williams?…seriously…who can forget all the ariel shots of the mountains and snow and other artic crap for Ne-Yo’s “So Sick”? lol…recycling huh? National Geographic called Hype…they want their film back. And Mary…sweetie…you’re wearing all these big fur coats and jackets in front of a GREEN SCREEN? Sweety? they couldn’t even fly you on location? It’s so flippin cheap its ridiculous. Oh and on top of that, in case Geffen Records did NOT get the memo…its been SPRING here in the US for some weeks now…aint nobody trying to see snow/ice in any shape or form…we’re moving towards summer people, that means beaches, suns, and less clothing in our videos….get wit it.

VERY BAD…VERY BAD…at least Hype is over his widescreen video phase with the top and bottom bars doing their own thing with the main video in the middle…that got old quick!

Its SOOO wack how y’all constantally compare Mary & Keyshia. Why can’t 2 fine talented sistas be in the same game and do their own thing without every single similarity being compared?! I bet if Britney Spears or some other white girl had a video like this nobody would say “Mary Copied Her” or “____ Copied Mary”.

Anyway .. the song bored me as did the video but big ups to Mary. I am a huge fan of hers.

This is the best I’ve heard Mary in years!! I swear she’s been screaming and squalling since the ‘Mary’ album. I like her tone.

Mary looks nice as always but the video is wack and I’m not sure about the song.

Angel please do a Who Rocked It Better on wigs cause that looks like the same wig beyonce rocked a few weeks back…

Let me put my vote in now…Mary DEFINITELY rocked it better…

Love you Mary…

oh and ps i’ve been seeing that brown leather all over where can i get that? Shoot where can i get those jeans and shoes?

thanx

mary j blige aka “singer that always sings off key” and the video are disqusting!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry

Why would Mary need to copy Keyisha Cole? Keyisha Cole is trying to be Mary and is failing miserably I might add. Nothing Keyisha has done has been on the level of My Life, What’s the 411, Mary, Share My World, The Breakthrough.

This is my favorite song off of her album. The lyrics are real and to the point! Now are far as the video not feeling it. Looks like they just thru something together maybe because her tour was coming up I dont know. I thought her next video wouldve been for Hurt Again, I thought that was her newest single on the radio right now.

I am so AMAZED at how cheap this video looks and i’m sure it was expensive bc it was done by Hype… Seriously this looks like something I could do on my computer…smh!!

MARY J NEEDS TO HANG IT UP ,STICK A FORK IN HER.SHE DOES’NT MOVE WITH THE TIMES ANYMORE

I really love this song come MJB, I love you and all, but damn can you come out with a concept for your videos now? instead of just singing in front on a blue/green screen, this video looks really cheap like it only took a few hours to shoot. Come on MJB why you leeting us down with this video it’s not fair to us? And I agree it is spring now, how many people do u honestly think are going to vote for a winter themed video in mid spring early summer? I can answer that for u ahead of time not many people will be voting for this video, honestly MJB lets go back to the drawing table and please reshoot this video with a concept if not for yourself for us (your loyal fans PLEASE!!!!!)………

I LOVE this song! Mary is such a diva.

But c’mon Hype. You could have done better with this video…

She needs a better video . Hype needs to get out of the business or step his game up for real . His videos are becoming tired. Mary deserves better than this. Plus she took too long for to drop a single so that don’t make it no better either.

CUZ ITS CHEAP. JUST HER STANDING THERE WITH SOME RANDOM MOUNTAIN SHOTS. LOVE THE SONG…BORING VIDEO

That video was complete shitty garbage. Mary Jane Blige KNOWS she CAN DO BETTER.

@29 Bobby- the reason why Mary and Keyshia are compared is because Keyshia is a Mary copycat, as much as I like her music its just like Mary’s, her image is the same as Marys and shes just a younger Mary. Its not hateration to compare them (although in most cases with other artists it is uneccessary) but in this case its not.

The video does look a bit like Keyshia’s heaven sent, neither of the videos are good anyway and Mary can do better than this, did she not watch the video back as they were fiming?

I dont know wat it is but this video reminds me of mary’s 97 vid (you are my everything) but thhe background is just different

I LOVE MARY. I LOVE THE SONG. I LOVE THE VIDEO. HER TRUE FANS WILL ALWAYS “STAY DOWN” FOR HER. SHE ROCKS!!!

Heard so many opinions about this video…….most of them weren’t good, and I must agree.
C’est tres wack.
It’s definitely springtime now, so the video already looks dated.
On top of that, the rabbt fur coat just isn’t getting it for me…not at all man….

I Love Mary J.

I admire her for not being ashamed to reveal her scars, wounds, and broken heart in her most vulnerable times.

I am moved by the respect and honor that she shows to her husband in an era when some would call it obsolete.

I love the song Stay Down. It speaks of what can happen in a relationship when there is an agreement to struggle together in hard times and share freely when better days arrive.

I appreciate how Mary is so honest about her imperfections and moments of frailty.

I honor her for allowing God to reveal the miracles He can bring about in a person’s life when they submit to His will.

Mary is real. She is a better witness to the true love of God than most of the so-called religious leaders we see today.

Stay real Mary.

MARY IS STILL A DRUG ADDICT COKE WHOR*E AND HER MUSIC IS TERRIBLE ,THE VIDEO SUCKED

Love Mary’s look in the video! Love the song! Mary is still holdin’ it down in ‘08!

I love the song but I wasnt feeling the video so much. She looked pretty but I feel the song has a story line and deserved a video that also told a story..Overall I expected more from Hype Williams.

the video was very boring…no “ENERGY” what so ever…but the song is great!! and mary is always staying true to SOUL music! gotta luv her!!

mary if your reading this dye your hair brown you would look 10 years younger this hair color and style dosnt work for you it makes you look older

This video reminds me too much of Ne Yo’s “So Sick” video, with the winter wonderland scenes…I do think that the obvious use of green screen isn’t cool, and I would have expected a little more variety in the vid than just a few hair chages and jacket switch-ups.

I thought the video was nice actually. I’m mostly glad that she chose to do this single over “Hurt Again,” because “Hurt Again” is a little too bland for a second single. Though I have to agree with many others when they say this video looks recycled. It was like a cross between “Everything”/”Enough Cryin’”/”So Sick.” But at least it was a winter video. Also I’m confused as to why she isn’t really promoting her album as much as she should be. The tour aside, this is the first Mary video since “Just Fine,” and that was back in October. She has a great album, with many possible #1s, but it seems like she is just leaving the door open for AKeys and Mariah to kick her down a few notches. Come on blonde queen.
Speaking of which, I was reading #22, and I kinda agree a little with the whole hair issue. She is a little bit too obsessed with trying to look a bit European. The blonde is getting a little too played out with black women, it’s becoming disgusting. I can’t wait until she changes it again. Many other R&B divas are going back to black, which is wayyyyy, more sexier than blonde in my eyes. It is obvious why Keyshia went black because she wanted to stop the Mary comparisons, and I think that was a great move. I’ve never seen her look as phenomenal as she does now. Keysh makes me wanna melt. But anyway, this song is one of the best on Growing Pains.

Mary is such a nice dresser. She very rarely disappoints. I can’t actually remember the last time she wore a “no, no.”

Mary so fuckin FLY!

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

YEAH I THOUGHT MARY WOULD COME A LIL HARDER WITH THE VIDEO…ALL SHE GAVE ME WAS WINTER WONDERLAND GREEN SCREEN…LIKE C’MON…

ITS ALMOST MAY CAN WE GET A SUMMER VIDEO…TO SETTLE THE DEPRESSION THAT IS THIS VIDEO!

ON THE OTHER HAND SHE IS LOOKING BEAUTIFUL! GET KENDU ON THAT WORK OUT PLAN MARY!
