This was released as the first single from 2003's In This Skin. It was written by Diane Warren. It bombed, only making it to #45 at CHR/pop and missing the Hot 100 altogether. This was awful. I don't know what they were thinking. Fortunately for her, Newlyweds premiered a few months after this release and her career was revived.

I still remember the Newlyweds episode about this shoot. The song itself is overwhelmingly dull.

I like it a lot, especially its bridge, but I've always found it kind of a... weird song. And a crap choice for a lead single.
When she sang this live it always looked like she was having an orgasm or something. lol

I like the song, but idk what they were thinking releasing it as a single, especially as the lead.

I remember watching her reality show on MTV and her manager or someone on her label (?!) justifying this song flopping on radio because the vocals were too challenging for listeners to sing along to (or something like that) LOL

This is actually one of my favorites by her, but it was a VERY bizarre single choice let alone lead single choice. Reminded me of early-90's adult contemporary pop which had absolutely no place at radio in the summer of 2003 with all the rap/hip-hop dominance.

Honestly, the singles were her only best songs from the album.

This is such a great song. It should have done better than it did, but as Jazzy said above, it was just a bad time to release something like this given what the climate of radio was. I love the Junior Vasquez remixes with the dark Trance/Tribal flavor.

This isnβt as bad as I thought it was back then. I think I either wanted a bop from her or a beautiful ballad. When this came out I barely paid it any mind. I knew exactly why it flopped at the time. I believe I had this album at the time and besides βWith Youβ I liked a decent amount of it over this song.
