I never heard this song until the workers in my cafeteria were singing it (well, more like screaming "Someone please call 911!" ) while making sandwiches. I like it.

This is the best Wyclef song I have ever heard. Mary just brings alot of soul and class to this song. I expected it to do better than it did.

I hated it when it was first released. But then it got sort of catchy!  |

I expected it to do better than it did. It did well on the Billboard Hot 100 compared to the singles from Mary J. Blige's album before it, and Wyclef's only recent hit before it was with Santana. |

This brings back memories of my first semester at college. It went all the way up to #2 on my personal chart. And it was while this was the single that I saw Wyclef in concert in Columbia, MO. If not Wyclef's best song, it's probably #2 or 3. I haven't really been into anything he's done since. I didn't like any singles off Masquerade much, and because of that, I haven't bought The Preacher's Son yet. I don't wanna pay more than $6 or $7 for it, that's for sure...

Beautiful song. The way they were able to make a song about a topic that is even more culturally relevant than ever so catchy is astounding.

I would have liked this so much better if it was just Mary, Wyclef sounds ridiculous. But I still like, once Blige comes on, it's killer.

I liked this a lot. It's definitely one of his best singles.

I remember this song, but it has never been my favorite. In fact, I laugh each time whenever I hear it. I agree that Mary was definitely the best part of this song.
