Re: The race for second place

Are people ticking it just cos it's Kelis? It really is the worst single she's released: it's OK and I ticked it but better r&b by less 'name' artists is getting overlooked here!

Like (segue!) the Pirates/Shola Ama single which may be even more heart-breaking and tear-jerking than the already emotionally extreme Mario Winans original. Both of them convey desperation and resignation simultaneously, how they both already know that a misunderstanding has permanently soured what they had - they're singing the same tune but they're not listening to each other.
