This is going for adds next week. I don't like it. It sounds like old R. Kelly production, which it is since it was recorded about a year ago.

If all they were going to do was release an old song from Still then why even postpone the album six months. They should have just released this after "Officially Missing You" flopped and went on with it.

yeah and it wasnt even a flop, it just didnt crossover-- it was huge for Urban AC.
so really it did better than "cant go for that" hands down, and they still released "nu day" after that DID flop. and the second single went on to be her biggest hit yet.

I was hoping she recorded something new for her next single. I really don't like this song at all.

Elektra didn't release the album because Tamia was too sick to promote it.

The album "More" is now slated for an April 6th release, and Tamia is the opening act for the Verizon Triple Threat Tour starring Missy, Alicia Keys and Beyoncé
Three of the biggest superstars in contemporary Pop and R&B music are joining forces in what promises to be one of the most exciting and historic tours of 2004: The Verizon Triple Threat Tour starring Beyonce, Alicia Keys and Missy Elliott, with special guest, Tamia.
One of the most highly anticipated tours ever, the cross-country extravaganza is scheduled to begin March 12 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and winds up April 18 at the Oakland Coliseum.
Special guest Tamia joins the tour on the heels of her #1 Urban A/C hit "Officially Missing You" and the smash R&B hit single "Into You" (with Fabolous). The Grammy-nominated sultry singer joins the tour in the midst of promoting her new single, "Questions," produced by R. Kelly. Her album, More, will be released on April 6th.

this is great news for Tamia, opening that tour which is going to be huge.
"Questions" is growing on me out of nowhere, minus the waterdrop the beat is really infectious, and her phrasing of the lyrics, which are above average, drives it home. I'm really starting to like this joint.

Tamia should stop recording, she is awful... Isn't her husband a basketball player? She can live off of his salary.

(she's from Windsor, right across the border from Detroit)

this is off to a good start, first getting Most Added and now it's +128 from only 31 stations, which is good. Doesn't mean it's gonna be a hit, but so far so good.

you say the most ignorant and ridiculous things ever. No! I say what my opinion is. To me, the best thing Tamia ever did was to sing the hook to the fabulous song. Her version was awful. In fact, I think Ashanti did a better job with the hook. I also dislike EVERYTHING by Faith Evans except her I'll be Missing You" hook. And, I think Monica is glorified ghetto trash with no talent. And, I find your taste in music "ignorant and ridiculous."

I like the waterdrops. It sounds like someone forgot to turn off the faucet.

OMG, I don't think you feel like that about Monica and Faith, you just can't. I think you like irratating OKLETTHISWORKSVP. Futhermore the notion of Monica being glorfied ghetto trash is preposterous, she's one of the most talented women of the past decade. P.S. to keep my post relevant I like this one by Tamia. I do think she could use better management, but she's a GREAT talent. Very consistent.

As with most of Tamia's other singles, I had a turn around on this one. I love it now.

This has the biggest bullet at Urban. Where did that come from? I think this song's okay, but "Officially Missing You" is better and didn't get this sort of reception.

It all has to do with the production. "Officially Missing You" had really nothing hype-wise going for it. They're hailing this as the next R. Kelly hit, and BAM, up goes the bullet.

Oh my god, at first I thought it was Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who produced this track... so it was R. Kelly eh?

So you mean promotion, too. I would agree this is not at all better than OMY, which goes down in my book as one of the best of '03. But it is a good song... Tamia is 3 for 3 on having her second single be bigger than the lead.

Oh and also "Officially Missing You" came out before "Into You" hit it big, so unfortunately, this is also being recognized as the new song from Fabolous's hook girl.

I found out the lyrics were " Do you love me? Lost interest? Is he cheatin'?" and NOT " Do you love me, Los Angeles? Is he cheap?"... I thought Tamia wanted to name check Los Angeles! I thought it was a weird line, but mighty creative if it was "Los Angeles."
Edit: What a SEXY music video! Tamia reminds me of Aunt Rachel from "Family Matters." The "Questions" music video even includes a sexy, choreographed dance! :) I love it when they have choreography in slow songs.

LOL that's so funny because I thought she was saying Los Angeles too!
It sounded like "New York, Los Angeles, is it she?" LOL
but then I listened closely and I could make out, "Lost interest, is he cheating?"
