This track is another example of a great “riding in the car” type of song. The production is very smooth and LeToya’s vocals and lyrics complement the track really well. Estelle sings the background vocals on this song and offers a rap toward the end of it. This song opens with a dialogue between LeToya and Estelle, which sets the tone of the record. Apparently LeToya is in a relationship with a guy who she is trying to let down easily. He is desperately clinging to a relationship that is clearly over. LeToya is trying spare his feelings, but instead she is forced to completely remove her love, in order for him to get the point.
I can appreciate her trying to let him down softly, but as often is the case (as in this case for example) some people just can’t take the hint; “You want this love, I can’t give ya, no between the sheets boy I made this bed; try as you may I ain’t trippin’ sex is over I’d rather sleep, instead….boy I got to go.” The song makes it clear that LeToya has stepped her ad-lib game way up. The ad-libs on this song are very soulful, and at one point she even gives us a Fantasia-like growl. You better sang girl!
Singswell’s rating: I give this a 4/5
