This was an album track off of Mariah's huge comeback album The Emancipation of Mimi. She wrote it with longtime collaborator James Wright. I love that it sounds like a long lost Gladys Knight & The Pips ballad. She really captured that vibe in the way she arranged her (stellar) background vocals as well as in the song's lush production; that retro soul theme is prevalent all throughout the album, actually, and it's done it favors in that a lot of it sounds timeless. Mariah sang the shit out of this song - ALL full voice.

Never liked this-- in my bottom 3 on that album. Always thought it was bland and that the vocals were too loud.

One of my favorites from The Emancipation. It was the best ballad in that style on the album. I wish she'd do it live.

Ever since you left me..I've been trying to hide the pain...! TEOM has grown on me over the years (overrated album but whatever) but I've always loved this song. While similar to "Mine Again" her vocals on this song are out of this world. The major problem I had with TEOM was it was a nice throwback R&B album but I could never "FEEL" what she was singing (especially "Mine Again") but this and "I Feel It" I can tell she poured her heart into those songs.

I love this. One of my fav songs on the album. All of the throwback R&B songs on that one are so good.

I like it. It's her best vocal on the album, imo- very strong without being shouty.
