This was the first single from his third album, "Year of the Gentleman," released in 2008. It was produced by Stargate. The song was actually sent to urban radio first, and was met with resistance because of the dance sound of it. It ended up peaking at #21 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart. A few months later, Island Def Jam sent it to pop radio, where it peaked at #2. It also peaked at #4 at rhythmic and #1 in the UK.

Love this one. I grew to appreciate it more over the years. I always liked it, especially the verse and the production, but I remember the chorus kind of losing me. I have nothing but love for this now though. Everything about it is great.

I love this one so much. This and Forever by Chris Brown were out at the same time and I jammed to both so hard. Hearing either or both at the club were instant hits for me. Love!

This was intended for Janet Jackson's Discipline album.
I loved it then, but I don't listen to it much now.

This may be my favorite song ever from Ne-Yo! I love the upbeat nature...

I liked this a lot more at the time than I do now (it was new and refreshing for the 2008 pop scene), but I still enjoy it from time to time.

I was addicted to this throughout the latter half of 2008. It was good for the first month or two until I saw the video. It also helped that it shared a similar rhythm to Rihanna's "Don't Stop The Music", which was another song I enjoyed that year. It's the best dance-pop song he released throughout his career.

One of my favorites from Ne-Yo. This song was also the first song I put on my first ever iPod Nano.
