I thought this was an interesting track off of her Mary album. It was pretty good. The Junior Vasquez Remix of it was huge in the clubs.

The album version was good, but I loved the Junior Vasquez remix and Chucky Thompson's Late Nite Mix (which sampled "Love Don't Live Here Anymore").

I liked the remix that featured Ghostface Killah. The album version didn't do much for me though.

"Your Child" is one of my favorites from the Mary album. It's up there with "Not Lookin'" and "The Love I Never Had" for me. It's hard for me to pick a definite favorite from that album though. The Junior Vasquez remix is her best dance mix hands down. I hate the Ghostface Killah remix though.

The Vasquez remix is killer. The original is okay.

The "Mary" album was Mary at her best. Although there really wasn't a strong single, every song on the album was superb. It was great R&B/Soul.

I agree with those that love the Junior remix. In remixed form, it's one of my favorite Mary J. tracks. I really like the original too.

The story behind the Junior Vasquez mix is really interesting (it appeared in DMA Magazine back in the day). The remix was done without the intention of it being commercially or even promotionally released, as many remixes Junior was asked to do sometimes never saw a release of any kind. The remix was done very quickly and it was programmed in a very simple style with the basic intro/outro, the vocal loops, then the drop into the first verse, and a very simple riff a la his Arena era remixes (the riff had been previously heard with a slight variation in notes in the "Am I Here? (Return To Sender)" remix and at the end of the "I Learned From The Best" remix). Mary's people really liked the remix so the full 12 minute Marython mix was released on the vinyl and CD promos. A 7:32 length edit was produced for the Dance For Me remix album. It has been said that only the 12 and 7.5 minute versions are the only two official mixes that were made for the song by Junior.
Two private mixes exist though. One sampled heavily from Chocolette's "A Little Bit Of Lovin" and another was a mashup with the Razor N Guido mix of "Brazen 'Weep'" by Skunk Anansie.

I didn't really care all that much about this song until the dance mix came out. However when dance mix came out, Wow! It's sound is kind of haunting in a way. I remember it getting played in Gay and straight clubs and the crowd always Loved it. Back then a lot of times I used to like edited club versions of songs when I wasn't in the club. This however was one of the few I didn't mind listening to the full version.

After many years, the "Your Weeping Child" mashup has finally been uploaded somewhere to hear.

She wasn't disrespectful, in fact she was 100% sure...but how can I argue with her? Holding a baby with eyes like yours! YES MARY!

One of the most poignant, TRUE songs Mary ever lent her voice to. A classic.

I actually remember hearing this song on WGCI and V103 when it came out. While it's not my favorite from her, it is one of her more memorable songs from the 90s.
