This was the second single from her debut album. It samples The Gap Band's "Outstanding." It peaked at #8 on the Hot 100. This is straight up 90s Mary J. Blige.

I don't care what nobody say this included she had a string of singles that i stanned for back in the day. The only difference between me and Ashanti stans was that I stanned for her happy, catchy and light songs more than her thin and whiny voice. Someone who could sing better would have elevated this from cute to amazing.

This is really cute. I always liked it.
I give her a lot of hell (for being bland, a downright embarrassing performer, wearing some of the most hideous clothes since DC had Mama Knowles in charge... and don't get me started on that whiny tone), but outside of "Foolish" and that crappy "BTM" remix, I loved all the singles from her first three albums.

I was so happy, no pun intended, that she released this as a single. I fell in love with it after she performed it on Soul Train. Enjoyed it a lot more than "Foolish" and "Unfoolish" at the time.
The remix with Charli Baltimore uses other elements of "Outstanding". It was included on The Inc compilation album.

I like this song. I love the bridge though, it's so much better than the chorus, I love the line "My love is so good that I wouldn't be without you
babe, couldn't see me without you babe."

Ashanti's voice fits this song perfectly.

This is so boring, at least Foolish had the sample to give it something interesting.

It was OK but she's had better hits.

Timeless classic. I like to bend my knees Mariah style when listening to this one.

Love it. This is among her best songs. Shame that it was somewhat overshadowed by "Foolish".

One of her absolute best singles. So iconic. It takes me back to being 14.
