[@kendolldamon]

You are LYING, if you say this isnt the REALEST song you have heard in AGES!!!! i MEAN she went there.!!!! This is an ARTIST AND VOCALIST FOLKS

[@genxer7159]

Paradox of gentleness with brutality of a broken heart. Beautifully brilliant.

[@itsssnunu]

Sadly my generation will never know about this 😩. 13 & in love with all the old school R&B. I truly have an old soul 💯🔒.

[@jazariathompson3402]

Im right with u.I'm 11 and I'm just straight 90's person a little bit of today's music. Idk wat really attract me to old music.it might have been the soul the message or the heart. I think its all. 👏👏👏

[@bells561]

Omg same here but I'm 23 and thank god I had a little experience of the lovely 90s :) and early 00s also mid 00s music wasnt so bad it died after 2009/10 but old soul for life.

[@madenmanhattan7319]

Misz Bella Benzz it died wayyyyyy before 2009/2010 sadly. Im 25 and i surely miss the old days

[@bells561]

MadeN Manhattan really? Maybe it's just my opinion I really think 09 music wasnt bad not as bad as now lol and it was easy to find good music now you got to like really search everywhere for some good music smh sad I can only imagine in another ten years smh this world will be a sad place and aw me too at least you experienced good music before it ended :)

[@madenmanhattan7319]

+Misz Bella Benzz Well if you appreciate the 09/10 music then i can't argue w/ you. Im just sayin that the music i grew up off is on another level than music now.

[@mka1967]

this song.....the brutal honesty....Awesome

[@vtymes1982]

Genius

[@ValenaRattray]

SHE IS SAYING WHAT EVERY SCORNED WOMAN HAS EVER SAID OR WISHED. REAL.

[@vtymes1982]

Or thought...

[@brenag1511]

Yesssss

[@justmontina]

😅 She sure is!

[@brajames1]

She wishes him pain but, wants him to come back to her in end. I love it.

[@lilangeleyes_7749]

brajames1 yes that is why I like it so much, she wishes him bad luck then wants him back.... it's a one-of-a-kind song like all Toni's hits

[@pheladirachidi6296]

Kamogelo letsiane shredded my heart into peaces and left me empty;betrayed,lied and cheated on me with a young school kid😧three years later it still hurts like hell

[@vtymes1982]

Pure genius ❤⚘🎶

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

She'd be a fool to take him back....

[@Torihappyness]

Classic toxic relationship.

[@tommykoren6253]

This album should of went double platinum. just shows u where music is today.

[@scheckdj]

Toni's vocals are on point and have just gotten deeper and richer with age....love her!!

[@2toofine]

Oh wow....this song literally brought me to uncontrollable tears. She says exactly what I've been wanting to say to my ex who was messing around with someone else for 2 years without me knowing. I want him to feel the pain he put on me. Thank God for Ms. Toni.

[@dawn-mariejones778]

The song is so real,we know she does not mean it,she just wants him to pay so he will come back to her.Go Toni,thanks for keeping it real.

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

If he could feel your pain he'd not have cheated on or lied to you. The best thing you can do is let him go and be grateful that you learned he was unworthy before you married and had children. Sadly, such people rarely improve with age.

[@FlyBoiQ1]

How are you today?

[@paulahinds7244]

😢😢

[@RhiannaBarr]

Not many people know that Toni has been writing and playing piano from a very early age......this shows that to the world

[@kelseymelt]

Rhianna Barr I did not know that

[@BritimaShow]

This album just gives me 'Waiting to Exhale' vibes.

[@adamlopez2073]

Brittni Joy Wow, I got the same vibes!

[@mrobinson2250]

well, babyface produce, waiting to exhale

[@BritimaShow]

Reggie Robinson haha true! Both are great albums!

[@mrobinson2250]

😆 they are

[@gels6084]

Yasssss

[@lilmamafontroy7316]

Been through a painful divorce, and I can honestly say she captured the feeling I remember having while going through it. You have to go through it to understand. I love this song!

[@godfreyemmanuel1547]

I can't describe how beautiful this song is!! When I first heard on the BFV and she was playing that Piano and joking around with Babyface, I was like OMG! Please Toni make this a song!! And now I can't believe she finally made it! I am so much excited!! What I real like about Toni is that she write songs that have a significant impact to our daily lives. This is what most of women who go through divorce or separation can relate to. Again Toni Braxton vocals in this song man!! She killed it!!!

[@bgreen5234]

Me too!, I love this song

[@vtymes1982]

❤ it

[@shadyogre6396]

Me too, that moment she played it in BFV with Babyface I fell in love straight with the song, they way she plays the piano and how she sang it, it's just beautiful.❤️

[@sheldonheyliger6006]

This woman is truly amazing. She made sour lyrics into a magical music to the ears.

[@phillipterrellcrawfo]

Anita Baker and Toni Braxton's voices!!! wheww

[@deannagreen29]

Love is the most powerful feeling that gives us many different emotions. When love turns into pain & heartache, it can be ever so bad. Heartbreak is the worst emotion and the hardest to overcome. Toni & Babyface have a winning album on their hands. There is no better music to hear than to listen to songs that explain your life, in the past or present time. Powerful stuff.

[@RonnieMatrix101]

I have been there , this is a very nice song , and its understandable to feel this way ' after a heart break , but its so much better when you can let go and wish them the best instead of wishing them the same heart break they inflicted, i think a person will remain heart broken as long as that feeling of retribution is present, So wish them the best , move on' and grow' & with out a doubt heart aches are among the worse kind of emotions but not all bad in the end ,at best it has taught a valuable lesson to seek much better, and prepares you to blossom for someone much better...But just my opinion ..still a very beautiful song ''' thanks for sharing this one..

[@deannagreen29]

Amen! If you hold on to pain, it can only hurt/destroy your life. It's a whole lot easier to forgive and move on.

[@CrowdSpectator24]

this is well done because only Toni could get away w/ these lyrics and still make it so classy.

[@FairlyStupidPeople]

Toni on stage is a whole different atmosphere bc u c this over 40 yr old women still, in my opinion, most gorgeous braxton EVER. This song is sooo deep bc she sings from the heart of real black women struggling with betrayal. This woman is a musical goddess and NO ONE can take that away from her. #gorgeous #tonibraxton #madblackwoman #love

[@tassadysmith5428]

You can truly feel the pain and the love at the same time in this song...

[@sharondturner]

The song is real life. People need 2 stop acting like they don't have these kinds of thoughts when a lover does them dirty. why are some of us so fake when people verbalize what we know we all have felt in varying degrees when love goes bad?? Plus in the song it's clear she still loves the man and is just hurting - that's REAL stuff; no Pop, for-radio garbage polluting our ears these days.

[@JoyceThomas96]

Right. Breakups are hard and even if you eventually get over it, at some point you just want to say some mean shit to them...want them to hurt badly, even if only for a little while.

[@jaseanthony70]

Sorry honey but I think you need to realise that we don’t all think unilaterally. People react differently to all sorts

[@NAJAI1]

Crying right now and not going to be bitter. I pray the hurt he gave me that God wiill have mercy on his soul and that his heart be healed from wickedness. I wish him no ill will at the end of the day now that I am to my senses. I'm not giving up on love, just got to have better dissernment even though I knew him for 5 years, let my gaurd down and gave myself to him, then he took off his Bozo suit. There is a good man out there for me

[@spitweety]

[@razakabbas4253]

I just happened to stumble on this song. I found it to be very raw emotionally. The rawness could have emanated from a personal experience of some sort. Nevertheless, Ms. Toni Braxton is undoubtedly a gifted artist. Very creative. Her tone and inflection in this rendition are indescribable. It's out if this world. Her voice is, perhaps, one of the best if not THE BEST EVER of the R&B singers, male or female. Period.

[@kcottle14]

Her voice is flawless

[@amoiesolomon4678]

Ugh Toni’s voice is like silk , ❤️ singing what every woman has felt at some point , I know I have

[@RETTAVISION]

This song is so strong...I feel it to the core with every fiber of my being...I still hurt but this song tells my story...and yes...I still wish....smh

[@msbots12]

i used to feel this way, but then time goes on. the wound doesnt completly but it gets better you know with each day. and someday you wake up and realise they are gone, and they are not worth my tears. you let go and let God!!

[@moshelechoo4062]

this is how music should be. this generation has lost so much

[@blessmimi]

Words were inspired by her mother Miss Evelyn who used these words during her divorced. That is why It's RAW,Heart wrenching,authentic ....you got to love it

[@marilynrice7739]

THIS IS REALITY GIRLS......TONI JUST SAYING WHAT WE THINK.....GO TONI

[@THEDOORIZCLOSED]

Ahhh! This album is the BEST music I've ever heard in 2014!!! However, and sadly, I'm too young and inexperienced to relate to it :/ Dis for grown folks that've put in the work and who truly know what Love and Marriage and even Divorce is. Drunk In Love needs to have several seats!

[@shymerelewis307]

damn toni these words are serious I like how she feels mad but wants the other person to feel the hurt at the same time but she still loves that person I get it

[@antonemtaylor]

she went in !!! This is the official break up song and "this is how i feel about you " song lol

[@vtymes1982]

❤ it

[@s.t.9605]

idk why but i keep coming back to this song. it draws you in

[@jenniferisabella4287]

Toni and Babyface just gave us a 2014 "Secrets" /Toni's debut styled album. Finally an album great top to bottom that showcases iconic Toni vocals & Babyface's many talents. This is the Toni record I've been waiting for.

I've been looking for this song!!!! When I heard it on the tv show I thought she was playing....

[@jnorwood6027]

Toni made these sour lyrics sound so sweet... Her cadences & breaths are so seductive... She is the most classy, best singing Braxton sister of the 5 - IJS!!!

[@devintucker5483]

+jnorwood6027 No denying that

[@RhiannaBarr]

Toni singlehandedly wrote this herself

[@scheckdj3350]

Love every song on this CD but this one stole my heart first - Toni's voice has just gotten deeper and richer!!

[@ldl4eva]

Some people acting like ya'll want every singer to sound intelligent and deep wit complicated and extreme words, sometimes those words are not called for, sometimes going simple is the best way, and for this song, it worked, because this song is amazing

[@ashleyking7607]

This is such a beautiful song.Great piano playing. Reminds me of an ex from the past.

[@MIMI4UJC]

Heard Toni performed this last night in NJ. I almost shed tears. she was Awesome. Deep song.

[@shaynoelle8178]

My exact feelings 😔.. I love him so much & he did me so wrong.. For somebody younger & won't love him like I did. "I really don't wanna see you die, but only make you cry- like you did to me" ... Hit me SO hard .

I love the whispering of her voice when she finishes a note (very rare), just beautiful !!!! Love you Toni !!! God bless you !

[@blessmimi]

There is A lot Metaphor in this song to learn : 1.Disease = sleeping around don't know who can give you a disease 2.she break your heart= What you do to other somebody will do it to you 3.she spend your money= Groupies who focus on your "money" and not on Love which will lead you nothing but paying the price (cough,cough Tracey) 4.Bring you to your knees= Repentance for stepping out of what you had before and go back and get it right again (cheated on TB) Great writing Toni. For those who miss the concept of this song. I hope I helped you.

the "disease line" in the lyrics is quite funny!

[@jimmyarmijo792]

I couldn't figure this song out, until I heard the last line, then I got it. To me the "wish" were never real but the hurt and anger and pain are. This produces 'false malice'. The heart is looking for closer if not a reunion. Been there. Only got closer. And even that is thin ice...

[@jahbarrhiosullivan6056]

Sindiswa Mvene True my dear, It is hard, but not impossible. When your heart is shattered by another human being, its completely normal to grieve and cry. But i always try to Think of this way..."I was born alone so i will not stop living because of someone else's infidelity" try that Sindi, you'll see that when it comes to the matters of the heart it is hard to be strong but it's very much possible. and when you come out of it, your'e stronger spiritually.

[@hawaiipeach8847]

This melody is so moving

[@MzzCharles2008]

Clearly many of the commenters have never been married and cheated on or terribly hurt by their spouse. It's a serious connection that makes a couple get married, so for that connection to be broken by your man for another chick or some other serious reason, these are your thoughts and some of us even say this out loud and mean it for about 2 or 3 days at the least, LOL, right ladies? We mean it and if it happens in time we will sit back and laugh because to us they got what they deserved or at least a taste... I'm just saying. Eventually, you move on but that part of you is forever scarred. You can't wish away emotional scarring it's there for life but we get better and keep pushing. Be Blessed!!!

[@gwenmarie7311]
