This was released in 2006 as LeToya's debut solo single from her self-titled debut album. It sampled The Stylistics' "You Are Everything," which has been sampled about 1000 times. But it worked on this song. It peaked at #31 on the Hot 100, #2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart and #15 at rhythmic.

Yeah, when I first heard this I couldn't really get into it because I was sick of songs with this sample, but it grew on me a lot. One of her best.

It's a cute song, but I agree, the sample really holds it back, it's just so played out.

I remember that LeToya and Mila J both released songs with the same sample and LeToya prevailed and it was a staple on 106 & Park for MONTHS. It was #1 for weeks and well deserved because out of the Destiny solo singles she came out singing the hardest, and that is counting "Work It Out" as Beyonce's first offering. When the second verse hit, it HITS. Still one of my favorites from her.

One of the cleverest uses of the sample. Ever. Gives the song a timeless flavor.

I honestly can't belive she got a hit with this. It gave me mix tape vibes and I dessdi really dont like her vocals.
