This was the second single from Rihanna's album, "Unapologetic." It was co-written and co-produced by Mikky Ekko, who provided vocals on the track as well. It peaked at #3 on the Hot 100, #4 in the UK, #1 at CHR/Pop, #2 at rhythmic, #2 at hot AC and #3 at AC. Excellent song.

I liked this more than when it was first released.

I hated this when it was released. It helped that I didn't overplay it, and now... it's one of my favourites.

This. It's good, but because it's so boring it's really hard to sit all the way through it.

Loved it as a solo before Rihanna turned it into some vanity project. The "Co-Write" bit is so laughable.

I loved it instantly and was glad it was a hit. She and Miky Ekko performed it at the Grammys in 2013; Rihanna killed it, I was so proud of her.

I'm indifferent to this one. It was never one of my favorites from her.

I had mixed feelings about this one at first but the live perfomances changed my opinion, I'm loving it now.

I loved how raw the song was, just a piano and her voice. Her vocals were beautiful in this song.

I love the melody and I agree she killed it at the Grammys.

I love this, but I overplayed the hell out of it and that album. It's gonna take some time for me to be able to listen to it again.

Wasn't immediately one of my favs but it has definitely grown on me over time and I appreciate it more particularly live.

For a simple ballad, this song really holds my interest way more than its peers. The melody is just so strong.

This was the first single from Rihanna I didn't like at all. I still don't understand what people hear in it.

I always thought this was boring when it was popular... but over time it's become one of my favorites. I love it now, and her vocals really shine... compare it to some of her earlier stuff and you'll see.

This is one of my favorite ballads of hers. I love the simplicity of the production. It's one of her best vocal performances.

I feel the opposite from some other posters in that I liked it a lot when it was released, but I skip it when it's on the radio now as I think it's pretty boring. I still see why it was so successful though.

I hadn't heard this for a while, but I heard it on the radio a couple days ago and this is even more gorgeous than I remembered. Love this!
