Written by the unstoppable hitmaking machine that is Missy Elliott. Recorded around the same time she referenced demo vocals per Babygirl’s “You Won’t See Me Tonight” with NaS.
All I can picture when this is being played is the scene in Romeo Must Die with her and Jet Li in the club . I don’t Blame him I’d be smiling cheek to cheek if that was me dancing with her . R.I.P. Aaliyah love you . It hurts we didn’t get to see your evolve as an actress . You would’ve been Hollywood’s next it girl . Love you
Back in the day, late at night, we used to hang out in mall parking lots/car wash in our rides just to pass the time - that's just a thing we did back in the day before the internet was really big. I especially remember blasting "Try Again" on the car stereo, and then another group of cars pulled up beside my friends and i playing "Are You Feelin' Me?" - i remember screaming "AALIYAH!!!" and them screaming it back to us - we all ended up hanging out that night. We're all still friends today LOL
Can’t believe there wasn’t a video to this song. Discovered this when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter. Anytime I’m nervous or upset I turn it on and feel better. My oldest is sixteen now. Thank you Aaliyah!!
I remember being 12yrs old spending hours on Fruity Loops trying to emulate Timbaland’s futuristic “white noise” snare effect he uses in this song (as well as others). One day, I finally nailed the sound after messing around with the settings. I was so happy and proud! What an obsession that was. Such a throwback, this song.
Bruh the switch up starting from 1:46 and the trademark timbaland drop at 2:09 😍 The beat, the muffled vocals, aaliyahs vocal runs and ad-libs. Freakin sonic heaven.
This was one of my favorite songs since I was 8 years old, brings me back memories how I used to jam to this and I still do at 30 years old Aaliyah was my first childhood crush in the 90's. I still love the movie Romeo must die when it came out on VHS tape, if I heard this song at a club dancing to this or with a girl that looks like Aaliyah I'd be nervous to just like Jet Li was in the dance club scene. R.I.P. to one of my favorite R&B singers and one of my favs ever who will never be forgotten about and known actress. 👌🙏🏿🙏🏿🕊️🔥🔥🔥💯
Soon as I heard this automatic Top 3 Aaliyah song of all time! For me simply based off dis nasty ass beat and Babygirl sounding silky smooth & heavenly over it.🥵🙌🏽💕🔥✨

I cannot think of anyone more Intelligent, Sexy, Classy and ready to pull off their own stunts, action, and do the soundtrack, than Aaliyah, right here in this Movie and Song.
This song is off the hook. The scene in the movie really set it off too. She will always be loved and missed. The beat to this is LIT! I guarantee this would still go hard in the clubs if it was played today.
This song was the bomb of RMD I honestly wish Aaliyah was still with us today so that way we would have got to see how well she would do in her future films. I swear, life is really cruel when the good people depart from this world at a tragic young age. RIP Aaliyah Dana Haughton 1979-2001
Would you look at this rhythm? There are no songs like this anymore. Aaliyah should always be listened to as a classic. Your voice is missed very much.
