    I’ve never been a big Eric Benet fan but he KILLED this song ….. I LOVE it. Maxwell, Sade, John Legend / Roots, Lauryn Hill/ Ron Isley, El Debarge and now Benet ….. REAL R&B is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Allen_J

    Great video, vocally easiest one the best songs of 2010. This is the most soulful song I’ve heard in a long time. I love how the music just seems like backup sounds to his vocal production. Oh yeah no auto tune

  8. MM

    Thank you Eric for saving us from the rest of the “R&B” world right now!

  16. B Lamont

    All this time, I had no idea this was his song. Song is on point and so is the video!!! A++

    @ #7 – I agree. IIt’s a shame that it’s so rare that a black man will use a real black woman in his video. Self hate is such a big problem in our community. Shout out to EB on the casting.

    I’m also tired of hearing autotuned trash everytime I turn on the radio. I’m eager to hear what the other songs on his cd song like. Get it Eric.

  18. Destiny

    I love this song….BUT the fake tears in the video gotta go..LMAO!!!

  19. Malakhi Eason

  25. thickems

    I love this song. I wonder who he is singing about!
    I havent watched the video as of yet but more than likely I would love it.

  26. Brittonce'

    I have been in loooooooooooove with this song since I heard it a while back! It’s such a great song & I love real singers which Eric is. Sounds like something the boo Maxwell would do. I am excited to hear some good music in this day & age where its sooo rare.

  27. Alaina

    @#13 lmdbao It’s one of those songs that’ll make you hurt all over

  28. Anissa

    I love that song! That’s going to be a hit.:)

  29. Valluv

    Beautiful song with a beautiful brown sister in the video.

  30. Lovely Lin

    This song is the BOMB!

  31. Cha

    Love this song! Love that he went with a natural girl. In the shower. Getting HER hair wet- not a wet & wavy set. Holler!

  32. What The Hell

    Love the song. Love the video. Video has a real sista in it dark skinned and no weave. This is real r&b music, looking forward to the CD. Keep making music like
    this, I will always be a fan.

  33. Nustarnc

    Toooo much falsetto!!! Very nice song, and Eric delivers. Should have mixed his vocals using another range as well. Sounds like this one is in comparison to the song Maxwell did. A little like Prince too.

  34. cocoa49

    I love this song so much. Hurry up and get her November

  35. The Hater

    I give him much credit for using real instruments and for cheating on Halle (damn she is annoying).

  36. cali girl

    #22 – i’m not saying that but 90 % of black women are brown skinned and it seems like 90 % of the video models are light skinned.

    we should be better represented.. it’s like when you watch a lot of network tv shows and hardly see any blacks . it’s natural for people to want to see themselves reflected in media especially since many r&b fans are black women and most black women are brown skinned.

  37. Somer

    I am a big fan on Eric’s. I grew up 6 blocks from him in Milwaukee. He dated one of my girlfriends back in the day. Even though he used a “real natural sista” in this video and in the Chocolate Legs video, please don’t get it twisted. It’s just marketing. That is not his taste in women. He has the same taste in women as Prince. Not white but those Indian, middle eastern looking women. The ones who don’t require a relaxer.

  38. Anonyme

    I’m glad he don’t use all the damn near white sistahs in his videos all the time like the chocolate sistahs aint’t beautiful. Homegurl don’t have a weave of nuffin. That’s wassup! Gone head Eric B.

  39. voo

    he’s probably singn about his relationship with halley berry

  40. why

    Who cares who he dates, just SMH at ignorance!
    NICE VIDEO and boy, you KILLED THAT SONG! That has to be hands down one of the realest R&B songs to blaze in 2010! WOW! That falsetto, PERFECT! EMOTION, PERFECT!

    Love the sistas, Black ones, brown ones, light ones, fair ones, natural ones, ones with weaves, mixed ones, Slim ones, thick ones, stout ones, Big ones!

  41. cd

    eric has done it again i hope the women he’s singing it to hears him loud and clear (Ms. Berry) it’s a great song can’t wait for the cd to drop i’m a big fan
