I LOVED this song at the time and still do today. Probably one of her most 'generic' single releases but it's still so so good heart.gif It's a shame she doesn't seem to acknowledge this, what with not performing it live since the Last Girl On Earth tour back in 2010 ohmy.gif

Ah yes yahoo.gif this was one of her better classic tracks! Nice little tune. And it was the one that randomly dropped out of the top 100 from the top 40? sad.gif

Yes, it was a victim of the ludicrous chart rule back then that having a remix of your previous single on your new one meant that the previous single was disqualified from the chart (or something like that, I'm sure a more chart savvy person will correct me if I'm wrong!). So it dropped out the week 'Unfaithful' was released sad.gif This is it's short-lived UK chart run:

I can't deal with this song. Bottom of the pile of Rih singles by far

I always hated this until a year ago. I like it now but it's far from her best.

Oops just realised my mistake, I made the I thought it was 2006 comment as I thought these threads were 10 years after the track was released but I just realised it is going through all her singles after 10 years of her career and not based on release date laugh.gif kink.gif

Oh I didn't know there was an actual reason for it happening! ohmy.gif
Reminds me back in 2013 when several Eminem tracks suddenly dropped from the top 40 and 100 because of that instant grat rule drama.gif
