Anyone that knows me knows I love real R&B music and I'm a sucker for an amazing bridge, something that is missing from "r&b" music of today. One of the things that make me love bridges so much are the isolation of silky background vocals. A perfect example of this that came to mind was the bridge from Brandy - SITTIN UP IN MY ROOMHow can one be down? Tell me where to start Cause everytime you smile I feel trmbles in my heart I have but one concern; how can I get with you? Til my day comes, here's what i'm gonna go@jazzysoul47 Linnethia Monique allow that

This is pop but
Taylor Swift's Out of the Woods has a really good and catchy bridge. I love it so much!

In recent years the bridge for Miguel's Use Me has just seemed genius. Elle Varner and Miguel need to collaborate more with the pen because it's pure poetry. Also the way his vocals seem to start menacing and just crescendo into his higher register. Blissful collision as our body's single intertwined Biting your lip, baby put me inside Crucify thoughts tender momentβs on a ricochet Purging my mind of the power I own Falling to forever just forgive me I was faithless Danger in your eyes, baby you can devour me Defile me, yeah
Another recent one would be the simplistic, but crucial bridge of Spotless Mind from Jhene Aiko. It ties the narrative perfectly together.
Shame on me for changing No, no, no Shame on you for staying the same X2
I can't forget about Florence + The Machine with Shake It Out
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat Because looking for heaven, found the devil in me Looking for heaven, found the devil in me Well, why the hell did I let it happen to me?

I really love the production on the bridge of "S&M" by Rhanna. Listen to this link (it will bring you to the bridge of an instrumental, you can really hear how cool the synth arrangement is).

I know this is Hip-Hop, but I just heard "23" again and Miley on that bridge is amazing.

I think the bridge on Forever by Chris Brown is very good.
But I get confused as to what a "bridge" really is.

The bridge is my favorite part in a song, so I have way too many. But to name a few : Hit the Freeway by Toni Braxton, Rock Your Body by JT, Boys by Britney (yeah Neptunes bridges basically) and almost every bridge by DC3 cause Michelle is the Queen of Bridges

I think the bridge on Forever by Chris Brown is very good. But I get confused as to what a "bridge" really is. If I am not mistaken, the bridge is USUALLY the third verse of a song, OR the part the is sonically a bit different from the rest of the verses. In my experience, I find that the bridges in many pop songs lose the beat, but that certainly does not happen in every bridge. Just a verse that is different/switches things up. :) BTW Forever is fire...so good!!!

"Ordinary Day" by Vanessa Carlton. The lyrics aren't anything groundbreaking, but the music that surrounds them is simply other-worldly amazing.

Careless Whisper probably has my favorite bridge of all time. It's absolutely ear-gasmic. I was belting in the theater when it hit the bridge right as the Deadpool credits rolled.

This holyful piece of rare pop glory is perfect from start to finish But that bridge is beautiful, honestly it sucks that this didn't become a major hit alongside her album and its other songs She is one of my faved breakout artists of last year, if not she is THE faved

Any bridge topic that doesn't mention Ciara's "1, 2 Step" needs to be corrected IMMEDIATELY. That bridge is pure heaven.
And B'Day has some of my favorite bridges from a recent artist. "Get Me Bodied," "Freakum Dress," "Upgrade U," "Suga Mama," etc.
I've always loved the bridge to 'When I See U" by Fantasia as well.

Probably not my favorite bridge of all time, but the bridge of "Wildest Dreams (Radio Edit)" is glorious. I'm still shook

Came up in here to add the bridge to "Do You Know" by XSCAPE. I love that key change, it makes me feel sooooo good!
When it comes to you, I lose all my control,
I let the situation get out of hand.
'Cause when I'm not with you I wanna be by myself,
Can't stand to see you with no one else,
Baby, baby, that's the kind of thing you do to me.

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running Didn't make sense not to live for fun Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb So much to do so much to see So what's wrong with taking the backstreets You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow
