I like it a lot. It does remind me of Climax. This could be a hit if the dance influenced bits are slower for urban.

This is a great track. It does remind you of "Climax", because of the mix of r&b and dance. But it meshes very well. Her voice sounds beautiful.

I just want to know what the promotion is going to be like? She should first showcase the song on her reality show...

The intro is similar to when she was singing in the studio on an esipode a couple weeks back. True! But she should do the full song. And in general she should show her working on album and recording a little more. I know the show is not about just her, but it's a huge platform for her. |

But lately, I realized she is hardly shown in the show now. It is usually the other four sisters now. I am glad she is getting that executive producer money though. |

Yeah and she moved out to LA to fully immerse herself back into the music scene (plus her doctors are there). So she should pimp herself out and promote whenever and wherever she can, health permitting. I remember when she did a promotional tour for Libra and was on all the big radio shows and on the cover of major black publications. That was the reasoning for her 114k opening-which was really good considering please didn't make much noise on radio. That same strategy could work this time too. |

It does have that Last Dance feel with the sultry opening and then seguing into a dance song. I like it.

This better be the remix version because it seems as if she hasnt learned anything from her past mistakes  |

??? I don't know where these "Climax" comparisons are coming from cause this sounds like Kylie Minogue's "Get Outta My Way".

It is decent. I do not mind the dance feel. I do wish there was a bridge before the break-down.
Bridges are so critical to songs, in my opinion. And Toni, although she used to have very strong bridges, has not had one in a very long time.
"Please" could have used a bridge and this song too. Without a bridge, they feel empty.
I am a big fan of Toni's, so I like it. I just hope it catches on to others who do not share my Toni bias.
I do like the fact that she is singing, at times belting, and sining intelligibly.

Also, the accompanying write-up about the song makes no mention of an album and couches "I Heart You" as "a gift to her fans."
Is this just a promotional song?
That is, is Ms. Braxton testing the waters?

I LOVE THIS! She sounds amazing. But I agree, I don't see this being a hit on any format.

She sounds great, but this should not be the single. Just release it to the clubs and give us something else, please.

I am pleasantly surprised by this track but it definitely won't do anything at Urban.

So I heard that this version of the song is a remix and that the R&B original version will be released soon. Has anyone else heard that?

I think she looks a lot older with long hair. Even during her first album... I thought she looked a lot younger with the fake hair during Secrets..
