Sorry Blame it on me - Akon with lyrics 

2008: loved it because of its incredible beats 2023: loving it because of its lyrics ❤️

“Because I love my fans I’ll take that blame” damn! Respect!

Akon's songs never get old... God bless Akon wherever he is. He's a living legend

Any one in 2024

Only a true man could write a song like this, respect

It's 2021 and we never left

Mad respect to Akon for this jam and what he did in regards to the incident or incidents that led him to write this in the first place. It takes real maturity and humility to own up to a mistake you made and all consequences that come from it, that’s true. It takes even more to fully and willingly accept consequences for something you are not at all at fault for. Huge respect right there

My dad passed away yesterday and now I'm making a playlist with all the songs he loved and I remember him by. This is one of them. Thank you dad for showing me the greatest artists of all times. Loved, missed and never forgotten 🤘🔥❤

It's September 2020, who's here with me? Some songs will never get old

Some songs just never gets old

For the apologies that were never given and for the apologies that were never said, this song hits so different at this age and time 😢

February 2022 & this song still plays in my head everyday, too good

I grew up listening to his songs. Funny how they all make sense now.

“I’m sorry that your life turned out this way” that hits home 😭💔

2024 anyone?

I always remember listening to some of his songs when I was a kid and thought nothing just like the beat and voice and now I realized the real meaning of his song. Respect !

2019... it never gets old!

One of the greatest songs of all time in my opinion.. he had something to say here.

Just for those who did not know why he wrote this song in the first place, here is the reason. It happened because of 1 incident. And this incident was when Akon was captured, on video, whining with an underaged girl on stage. His actions caused a monumental backlash which he did, in a way, actually take the blame for. But the major repercussion of this action was that Verizon, a powerful telecommunications’ company, decided to pull its sponsorship away from Gwen Stefani’s The Sweet Escape Tour. This was because Akon was one of her main opening acts. So he apologizes in the song for causing her this misfortune. However, he defends himself by pointing out that both the club and the girl’s family, not himself, were responsible for her being in such an adult venue. Or simply put, his defense is that he didn’t know she was that young. Then he goes on to take a jab at Verizon, basically accusing them of unjustifiably ‘disgracing his name’. But at the end of day since he ‘loves his fans’ he’ll play the role of the martyr, if you will, and “take that blame”. Indeed he concludes the song by flipping the chorus, stating outrightly that this time around he’s accepting the blame even though he knows it’s not his fault. However, if this incident did not occured, this masterpice will not be created. Dont forget, beautiful sunsets needs cloudy skies.

Salute to both these legends Clinton Sparks for writing such a masterpiece and Akon for delivering the unheard melodies so we could also be a part of it

"When you rather be home with all your kids as one big family with love and bliss." That line always hit hard.

this brings back those days. where songs were meaningfull

"Sorry" is a not a word of cowardice but a word of offering peace for those who make mistakes for those they done wrong and an oath never to commit the same again😔🙏

This song hits me very hard. I put myself in this situation. And I'm happy that these good and talented artists bring out something that deeply describes our daily stories. End of 2022, n I'm still listening.

Is anyone just like exploring around yt listening to the old music and remembering the old memories 😊

2018 still hits the feels

The only dude who could actually come back from something like this. Its a show of humility. Nothing short of Respectful and admirable. Besides who can hate this guy he gave us all those memories 😭😭

Anyone here 2024

This song makes me cry and feel so emotional, makes me wanna say sorry for even all the things I havnt done wrong Anyone who feel same way ??like August 2020

Really hits deep.. I miss my childhood music.. the lyrics were real and life made so much sense as a child

This is my jam during mg high school life, and now it's 2022, I'm already married and I can now fully understand the message of this song. This is so precious. 💕

It’s Feb 2022 and still this ain’t getting old. Akon gave us Some life songs for real.

There's just so much emotion emanating from these lyrics. You've got to be real mature to write these lyrics. Love what I'm hearing even after all these years.

Back when songs had meaning!

Still listening in 2023! Still perfectly written! Love this guy😊

This will always be a classic to me. Thanks Akon for this beautiful song.

still be hitting me even in 2018 😢

now this is a song that sounds good and has killer lyrics. I miss the old music bruh

Listening to this lyrics giving me goosebumps all over. At first it was the beats I like. But now I've grown up listening to it all over again, I'm so loving the lyrics. Akon did a good job on writing the song

This song never gets old I will always love this song no matter what 🥺😊

I was a middle schooler thinking this song was dope! Im in college now.. i realize this song has a deeper meaning than just entertaining. #2010songs

As a teen, I never understood the last verse. And now that I know, my heart breaks for him. You can tell that really ate at him.

Ive known this song forever, but since ive lost my husband recently after 10 years its never hit so hard. The first chorus just took jab to my heart. I regrete so many things, and theres so many things I wish ive said, or said more often. Remember to tell your loved ones how much you love them before its late.

Back in days i use to hate this song, it's kinda awkward and boring for a 5 year old me. But now that i'm turning 18, i just realise the real message of this song. This song gives real emotions and it truly hurts because the lyrics is too emotional and realistic. Man akon is the best, he's a legend for writing wonderful music. Godbless you man!

Jamming to this on January 7, 2021. This right here is a timeless masterpiece

If your listening to this in 2021 damn we old

It’s February 2022, who’s here with me? This song will never get old

February 2024 and the sense in this song still hits, More blessings Akon🙏❤

Am I the only one who gets so emotional each time I listen to this song 💔😢

i watch this in 2018, used to hear it when it was 2008 tho, ten years, still love it

This song is timeless, pure work of art.

Your inner beauty inspired you to come out with this humble song. May it descend into men and women of our era

Akon really doesn't get the appreciation he deserves..

When I was younger I didnt understand this song. Now I truley understand why my mother cried to this song and dedicated this song to my dad.

Daaamn!!! 2022, i feel nostalgic aff 🥺😭

I was born to meet this song and while I was still a little child, my bro taught me how to sing it and it's ringing in my mind now. I'm so excited and proud of you Akon

Tears fall down whenever i listen to this no matter how much i pretend being okay .. i end up in tears

I was a kid listening to this through a tough time when i blamed myself for everything that was going on. I carried that burden for years but now that i'm older i can listen to this with light shoulders knowing that it wasn't my fault. There was no-one to blame.

This song never gets old it’s such a great song and I’ve been listening to this for 6 years and never got tired of it

That second verse gets me every time

Hey you! Yeah you the one who is reading this, you have great music taste and a kind soul for picking this song. Its human nature to be scared of the outcomes that you have done. But the past is the past and you must pave the way forward even if it takes a few trips going back to fix a few bumps and scratches but don't lose sight of the light ahead. For I love the human race and I embrace the fact that I'm not perfect. And if you really need to. You can put the blame on me.

The memories are hitting me. I remember listening to this song on the radio in the car and just staring out the window thinking about life. Lately, I realized I’m getting older. The world seems to get lonely all around me.

Anyone else think this is the best song Akon has ever made

Still listening in 2024

Its 2021, 14 years passed, still so relatable and relaxing. AKON is a real legend!

Lots of people hate me and I don't know why... This song makes me feel a little bit better.

January 2022..let see how many still listening this song

Its may 2022 and I still cry listening to this. 90's kid will always jam to akon's songs

this song brings back memories

nobody: me: liking comments from 2 years ago

Who is here with me.

2023 but I still can't get over this ❤️

I wanna dedicate this to my ex. I'm sorry that I wasn't the man of your dreams. I'm sorry that I couldn't be there with you every waking second. I'm sorry that I have severe depression and Sometimes needed time to think. I'm sorry when you were sad, I told you how much I loved you when you really just wanted to be left alone. I'm sorry I gave you everything I had when all you needed was space. And I'm sorry that you weren't happy with me and cheated on me twice and lied to me about it constantly. I guess you could blame all of this on me. I doubt anyone will even see this, but damn I really needed to get this off of my chest.

Best apology song ever... 🙌👍

It’s February 2022, never gets old, Who’s with me??

2023 and still listening to this song, big respect for akon and thank you for makin' such a true heartfelt song 🙂

To my ex, wish i didn't have to work as much, so i could have spend more time with you more/buy you everything you wanted/ and most importantly loved you more. Even if i am lost without you and you look happy moving on, i wouldn't want it any other way, so if you ever feel that you need to blame someone, put the blame on me

Who’s here with mental health going through quarantine if so here’s some respect 👊 we can fight this in the ring 🥊

When I was a kid it was just a song, now I understand everything 🙂
