This song makes me cry and smile at the same time. I used to sing it to my wife. She died of metastatic breast cancer in 2019. I miss her so much. 19 years of marriage gone. I feel so incomplete without her in my life...damaged.
I'm so sorry for you loss. 😢😢😢 I pray God helps you develop the strength, comfort, temperament, understanding and peace of mind to get you to a better place mentally and emotionally. 🙏🙏🙏
My son just sent me this song and said how many memories it brought back. I never knew that playing this beautiful song would have such a profound effect on him as a child growing up. I guess he knew it was my favorite and it also became one of his. I love you son and thank you for the memories ❤
This song reminds me of my mom too, I was just thinking to play it for her when she comes home from work. This song added so much peace in my life when things got hard
Music holds a powerful effect over us. Scientifically proven that listening to certain music and melodies can strike broken cords inside of are cerebral our brain that is were we as humans will fall victim to these crippling diseases elements that come with aging like dementia. Not having the ability to recall a memory can be very traumatizing to certain individuals and for individuals who suffer from head trauma like myself. It is not always easy to recall what you just did 2 minutes ago, let alone remember a memory from years ago, but music unlocks those memories and it is such a blessing to be able to tap into that beautiful Work of science and God.🙏🏾🙏🏼🙏🏻🙏🙏🏿🧑🏿🚒
I cry to this song now because my ex wife showed me this song once upon a time and she use to sing it to me, I didn’t pay much attention to it. Now we are divorced and I finally realize what true love and beauty is from enduring the emotional pain we both suffered, my heart aches with every note and every sound this song produces. Tears start to fall uncontrollably as I start to think and wish what could’ve been done, gets harder to be re-done, as the seasons pass. I love this song and I still love you Chelsea ( bearer of our beautiful daughter Avalia). ♥️
I remember my mom playing this on my first day of kindergarten, and she made it a tradition to play it everyday before my first day of school. I started my senior year of high school, and she really wanted to drive me my first day and I let her. She played this song. She played it my junior year and I didn’t think much of it. But this year, tears went down my face. I am accepted into college out of state, and she won’t be present with me. I walked into my first class, red eyes, some of my classmates assumed I was high. This was one of the most powerful moments of my life. I don’t exactly know how to put it into words, how it felt. I love you mom.
Wow that is powerful thank you for sharing the bond and love that you and ur mom have. It took me back to how me and my mom was R.I.P. MOM but I seriously do know what ur saying and hope u turned that pain into strength as I have but I bet you have cuz of the beautiful experience you have shared so thanks again and continue to be blessed. P.s. To all the hard working,loving,caring shit ECT. Of everything else as well I typically made this a bit long sorry 🙏🙏🙏

EXCELLENT CHOICE!!!!!!! I PRAY YOU MEET THAT ONE PERSON, FALL DEEPLY IN LOVE, AND DANCE TO THIS SONG ON YOUR SPECIAL DAY!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS IN ADVANCE... BE BLESSED!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I didnt have to look for "Just like a star." My point is that yeah good music still exists but only for those searching for it. This type of music needs non stop radio play to heal the world from all the degrading things that are forced into our ears.
This album was the backdrop to me and my husband's courtship. We celebrate 15 years today and I dedicated this song to him with a slideshow. I get the same flutters in my stomach hearing this today. ❤️
Woke up this song in my head. Reminds me of my husband who is no longer on this plane of existence. He was my friend and forever love. Music was one of ways of communicating with each other,Slow dancing at the house and him singing the words of the song in my ear. Thank you for the memories that give me something to hold on to.
This has been one of my favorite songs ever since the day i first listened to it. On my wedding day it was pouring rain that we almost canceled our photoshoot and the first look. And i was so anxious and i was heading to see my husband for our first look. The rain stopped and one of the most beautiful rainbows appeared. And this song started playing from a distance. And instantly i felt this overwhelming calmness.
My eldest sister died when this and put your records on was popular I remember listening to those two songs a lot.. I was only 6/7 I remember being very sad after she passed she was only 13 😔😔 when I come back here I remember how sad my moms was as well.. now at 21 I listen to this thinking of them both because now they’re both gone.. Ugh this is so sad 😔😔😔
Too young for so much loss 😔I’m so sorry! I lost my mom 2.5 months ago and I randomly started singing this song a few weeks back. It’s so beautiful, it makes me happy and sad. Love and light to you ♡♡
I was put on to this amazing song by a talented football player named Joe McKnight. He posted it on his MySpace page. Back then he was just in hs but he went on to have a great college and pro career. Sadly, his life was tragically taken this week but I remember no matter how much time past everytime I heard this song throughout the years I would think of him and how he had great taste in music and how deep he was and how secure in his own skin he had to be to be a big tough football player an put a song like that on his page. RIP Joe McKnight.
I lost my husband almost 4 years ago he was a musician I use to play it on Saturday 's while I clean the house. Today was the first time I listened to it since he passed. 🕊 🕊 🕊
She talking about arguing with herself in the mirror if u really wanna understand me u know what yeah don't hand me the aux chord at all ok yall cause first of all hey I don't want nothing in return for real blessings for me seriously is everybody for real doing good in life wanna sew if I'm bluffing or not huh
Damn eyes ugh my life for real 😩 u know what I'll for real start smiling when everybody gives me something to smile about I can't fake a smile for real at all
This song reminds me when I would go shopping with my mom at Macy’s and this would play in the background. It made feel like I had an outer body experience as my mom was looking at clothes and smelling perfumes.
First time i saw this was on late night B.E.T videos sitting on my mothers living room coach with my at the time Boyfriend. Now when i hear this song i always think about him, wondering how he's doing
This depth of this song is incredible. AND HER VOICE! My God! Frees my soul! She could sing me to sleep for the rest of my life. Its official... I love her.
I lost my beautiful son/friend, and this song resonates with me, this song makes me cry so hard for him. I miss my boy...... I torture myself playing this. song.
I,m so,so sorry for the loss of your son/ friend... It must be very hard . There is hope for his return.. When ,and how?? CRIST kingship will soon accomplish his promise to bring the messianic kingdom over mankind,and give another chance for the people who passed away come back through the ressurrection process.. Crist while on earth 🌎 resurrected several people to show his imense power over death. Please read about the gospel Matthew Mark Luke John CRIST doesn't lie..he will accomplish everything he said. Stay in peace and hope.
This song screams childhood to me 🤍. I remember the first time I heard this song was when I watched Nancy Drew (Emma Robert’s version) and then hearing this song, I was captivated. It’s so calming and beautiful! So glad I discovered her back on those days!
Idk, don't you think it's a little sad for the wedding song? It's kinda like "I'll Always Love You," that's another popular wedding song that's actually a break-up song.
@@dapperfan44 hmmm maybe. I suppose its how you listen to the song as a person. To me it's personal and me and my boys love it. Not first dance song but maybe walking down the Isle song. Who knows 🙈
Really love this song, it’s so emotional and fragile. I sang it with personal lyrics to a very special person, and every time I hear it, it gives me a special feeling and brings me back to our extraordinary love 💗
This song takes me back to High School. I remember me and a few students broke out singing this song in Video Editing Class and we were so in to the song the teacher joined us towards the end. Haha good times!
My dad used to sing this song every night before i went to sleep, but now that i got older and that i’m not the only child in the family, times have changed. but i still do really miss the times when it was just me and him having fun, now we barely talk. it’s impossible to listen to this song without breaking down for me, the lyrics, song and memories are just too much, i love my family and i hope they love me too :)
Aww, thank you so much 😭, I’m only thirteen but the way I wrote the comment made it sound like I lived away from my parents already. I cherish the moments I spend with my family to the fullest and I hope you do too, have a great day, and thank you ☺️
I love this song, I dedicated to my daughter because when I was pregnant. I would play this song and she would move a special way and it just felt so warming and loving. My star Shanari
Green: I knew this guy who would end all of his text messages with "lol.." after awhile I was plagued with the following questions: does he really have a serious bone in his body and or *does he really know what is love is?? So Sincere*
This was my mother’s favorite song. I often find myself listening to it just to bring some semblance of normalcy back into my life. While this song won’t bring my mom back, it provides much needed relief from the plaguing reality of life. To anyone else who is going through this/has, keep your head up, we’re in this together❤️
Honestly man I know the loss of a loved one is something you can never truly get over but for me it's been 2 years since my mother passed and I it seems like the days get more darker as time goes by. This song is one she used to play from time to time and one that i can remember listening to along with her when i was very young. I miss her everyday and this song helps a little with the hurt.
+Diana Marina Torres Alonso long story short, my best friend I developed a crush on, is in choir with me and we sing a lot. so we know lots of songs. but one day, he was telling me about all these love songs and told me to listen to this.. so yeah.. he told me to listen to this song.
I realize this song is amazing not because of what she is talking about but the way it's being sung. She telling everyone to exhale and be at peace with the knowledge of finding that someone. The emphasis on exhaling and peace, which is why I'm a die-hard Corrine bailey rae fan.
My mom had the album to this and would play all the time when I was little , we Called it our song .I’m about to be 18 in July and we still listen to this together 💕✨
Beautiful girl , beautiful voice , beautifull song , Beauty still alive in 2023 , the Beauty that touches our hearts and our souls , so deeply......Thank you CORINNE !
I know some of us don't share the same taste in music but YOU Gotta Admit, this song, and the album is incredible. Plus, the words express what shine bright in the eyes of the beholder. I Love it! It is so refreshing...
I fell I love her twenty years ago. The times when cd player where the ish! ❤🥹 Kids played outside, & music was good! What a time .. love you Corinne ✨

My dad had this album and would play it alongside alot of the other soul hits he enjoyed. We never had that great of a relationship and I was just too young to fully understand making amends and trying to facilitate a relationship. He died when I was 14 from prostate cancer. I learned things from him, he was a smart man, but damn, I just wish I could've had a real conversation with him, man to man and let him know that I loved him as a dad, but I know he knows wherever he's at now. R.i.p onias Dickson.
This song is close to my heart, It reminds me of the period I lived in New York. Anyone else here that also have beautiful memories attached to this song?
when im listening to her voice and just the acoustic instrumental together..its like knowing what it really means to be female you know,its like she always digs your raw femininity inside in a pure way..without malice and pure inosence...
That's beautiful but to think that there is an "inherent" meaning of being "feminine" is still biological essentialism, it's a patriarchal ideal. Maybe it is what means to be human, but to think that the essence of "femininity" as something innocent and graceful or whatever is still problematic - it doesn't help women.
+Luna Saber-Bilder wow your comment was so annoying. she was simply expressing how HER, A WOMAN, felt the song tapping into her feminine side. why the hell did your fake woke new age feminist extremist get triggered over that? it's as if being a women isn't even special anymore. women aren't allowed to express their feminity or be celebratory of women without weirdos like you getting offended. "femininity is a social construct" no you dunce it's a natural, God-given instinct and you aren't gonna invalidate or belittle it.
@Luna Saber-Bilder - To deny sexual dimorphism and evolutionary biology is scientific illiteracy. Worse: it's placing ideology over facts, science and evidence in favor of your preferred sociopolitical narratives. That's called RELIGION. It's taking a giant step back into the Dark Ages where scientific facts that disagreed with the ideological madness of the era was branded heresy and those that espoused them, heretics. Masculinity and Femininity are the extended phenotypes - the genetically hard wired behaviors - of the sexes that evolved as the optimal effective combination of preferences, predilections and psychologies that best helped each of the sexes survive, compete and reproduce consonant with their physiology. They are the operating systems that were written specifically for their hardware. Those hardwired behaviors were created by energy efficiency, physical fitness and mate selection of those possessing them and displaying them the loudest as the most desirable mates. Due to a combination of prenatal birth defects (embryonic, chromosomal and hormonal imbalances during fetal gestation), a small percentage of the population (less than 4%) will have their brain's sex misaligned to some degree from their body's sex. So there will be some men whose brains are more feminine and women whose brains are more masculine to varying to degrees as a result of those birth defect. This is the LGTBIQA spectrum. Bu the other 96%+ of the population are heterosexual males and females with typical ranges of masculinity and femininity. But citing facts to someone whose mind has been captured by identity politics, Feminism, Feminist theory and post modernist/social constructivist theories is like shouting at the rain. It seems more likely that rather than process information objectively, you run everything through a filter of identity and power first, like the religious run everything through their biblical texts and beliefs to see if what's being said contradicts any of their beliefs first, then reject/dismiss out of hand if it does. I hope I'm wrong, but your words don't make you seem like someone amenable to reason, facts, evidence, etc.
I love Corinne Bailey Rae so much oh my goodness there's is no other song in the world that could ever make me feel such strong emotions like this song
Have never experienced anything like this level of romantic love with any human being. And so glad there's evidence, as here, that it exists. I am nearly 65. That love exists is the thing.
One of the best. And it does not only apply to a great romantic love. It's a wonderful omage to every special friend, family member or partner and for the future ones we haven't yet met. It describes poetically how beautiful human connections can be.
I retired and moved to Lanzarote many years ago and I just loved this lady her sound is so transient and delicious I miss Corinna as she made the most beautiful sounds I hear she is releasing new music in 2023 so I look forward to hearing this wonderful lady she reminds me of Nina Simone the world needs Corinna
