Ugh. This sounds like it's going to be an awful ac ballad that no1 is going to play. Why can't she just make the r&b jams we want and need from her?

Sounds good to me, but the clip is pretty short. Ugh. This sounds like it's going to be an awful ac ballad that no1 is going to play.

Whether I end up liking it or not, I'm just so happy for her that she's in a place where she loves making music again. <3

I'm always excited for new Toni. She sounds great in that 5-second clip, and it's hard to really judge but I think I'm with stunnedout on this one. She could go the route of Mary J (or even her sister) and release something perfect for Urban AC. Maybe this'll sound UAC friendly in full. For me allow that's point is key, if she's happy to make music again, I don't care how much she mumbles or belts or chases trends. I'll be buying and listening to it on repeat either way.

Yeah that was the first thought that crossed my mind. From the clip it sounds like Yesterday 2.0 and we all know radio didn't play that song irrespective of the fact that it was amazing. But i hope the full song is more R&B than Pop. She looks FLAWLESS though.

I would like an urban ac jam, not a Celine dion ac ballad. Didn't she try that with "yesterday" and didn't do anything? I'm hoping for something more along the lines of "hands tied". It's crazy that Toni really Really hasn't been able to impact urban ac charts consistently with her releases over the last 15 years.

I guess we'll have to hear the final version to see whether it's more of a "Hands Tied" or Celine Dion ballad.

This thread makes me think a Toni Braxton rankdown wouldn't be a complete bust :)

"Hands Tied" SLAYED profusely. Woah Most of her singles over the past 15 years have been misses for me (as much as I love her), but "Hands Tied" and "Hurt You" were both A+++.

"Hands Tied" SLAYED profusely. Woah This is what I need right now. What a jam! Of course she is going to try and give a ballad circa 1996.

Where did "Hands Tied" peak at Urban AC? #6. The Trey Songz version of Yesterday peaked at #11.

Beautiful cover.
"Hands Tied" is classic Toni. Could easily have been on Secrets.
