This album was beautiful simply bc of the simple fact that I heard Aaliyah & Static has a thing for each other but Aaliyah didn’t like to mix business with pleasure so she decided against it then static got married but they still remained very good friends clearly bc he did this album lol I heard static wrote that song ‘for a long time’ about Aaliyah
I feel like this is the vibe that Solange and so many of the new female r&b crooners are trying to possess. This minimal, VERY black, moody R&B. I love it. This album changed R&B.
it really is. this one time as a kid i rearranged the lyrics to have a more poestic flow when spoken and gave it someone i liked cus i knew they wouldn't know it was a song cus ppl i knew bk then weren't into Aaliyah
@@kylekingofdaworld lol nice! Ye im pretty sure this song started out as a poem . Its just smooth and subtle. Either way dope af and hope the poem worked for you lmao
don't be ashame.. I miss her like I knew her too... when someone can someone that they never knew... its def because that person possessed true angelic qualities.. irreplaceable she surely is.
I remember this song was playing in the Virgin Record store and as soon as I heard it I bought the CD, I'm sure I was going to get it anyway but it was immediately after I heard that I needed this CD!
This song was so ahead of its time, especially the production. Actually, virtually the entire album's beats were in a league of their respective own. I always envision the pool scene from "Seventeen Again" to this cute song for some reason. My nostalgic memories mingling with one another lol
That subtle low run at 2:42 “long as it’s you and me” is why I love Aaliyah. The detail in her craft is So unique and untouched!! My all time favorite artist! You are truly missed!!
Dame was wrong he had a baby with Rachel Roy in 1999 then he was talking about marrying Aaliyah. What he married Rachel Roy because Aaliyah died I really don't the think they would've gotten married. He was a player showing all those condoms and socks nasty!!!!
+Hashawn Edwards Yes. She started the album in 1999 and this was the first track they recorded in New York. The two "new" Timbaland tracks (We Need a Resolution and More than a Woman) were the last additions and the only ones recorded in 2001. "I Care 4 U" was a left over from the '96 "One in a Million" album sessions. She actually wanted to put that one on "One In a Million" but the album was already mastered and ready to go.
Ashley M that would have been an awesome combo. Amerie makes some incredible songs. I think they would have been great friends. Amerie's first two albums are amazing
I bought this album in 2001 and listened to so much I had to buy another copy bc i wore the cd down. Listening to it now reminds me what a classic it really is..
This song could literally be released today and no one would even know that it came out in 2001. Aaliyah was most definitely of her time as an artist. Neither her music or style has become dated.
The definition of class and smoothness. Miss you Aaliyah. Rest In Peace angel. Your voice and beauty is worth everything. Now I see why God wanted you close. Habibti!
2020 Aaliyah people are still here talking about you. I wish that we could of gotten more albums, it’s crazy how you made all this music before you were even 23 years old. Like that shit is really WILD
She is my favorite person ever. Da fact that I’m bout to be 22. In a month. And she was only 22 when she died it makes me think so wow that could’ve been anybody. Age doesn’t matter or who you are. It’s just so sad. I always wonder to myself what was her favorite food, her favorite movie...
this is one of my favorites a lotta ppl dont kno this song at all
mine too!!
Yup. I just found it a year ago. love it
Alot of ppl really don't lol
I know this song cause I played the whole CD
Yes, this song is slept on by so many. One of her purest songs ever. She is missed dearly
"If I'm a drink you're my lemon squeeze
Oh, you got flavor boy, you go good with me"

It is not a competition bro stop
@@mediyums4556 I never said it was ??? I’m just pointing out how ahead of time the album was.
I don't think people really understand how poetic and lyrical this song is. Still bumping in 2020!?!

cold as ice
Yea, it's one of my favorites and we need a resolution.....
bye
I agree

god I miss this girl like I knew her.
Same!
same :(
same
Queen Negus same here
don't be ashame.. I miss her like I knew her too... when someone can someone that they never knew... its def because that person possessed true angelic qualities.. irreplaceable she surely is.
The way she expressed herself is the most beautiful. She's a true artist.
Aaliyah had music that sounds so recent. Her voice…Ill do anything to have her back...
Kayy take Beyoncé and give us back Baby Girl😬
Each album had it’s own texture. She was a force of light.
Same..
@@ashleydinero2008 Fendi facts. I would trade her plus 20 more for Aaliyah.
@Kathryn Dorsey nobody asked you
she's honestly the definition of class... rest in peace baby girl, r&b ain't been the same...
Agreed 😢😩
Indeed❤
impossible to not love her
That is a very rare characteristic in an artist.
@@Caramel1806 Facts
Best song on her album for me. Beautiful and soft.. poetry in a song
This was a beautiful song. It should have been a single.
+Taylor Downing YES IT IS PRETTIFIED
I remember this song was playing in the Virgin Record store and as soon as I heard it I bought the CD, I'm sure I was going to get it anyway but it was immediately after I heard that I needed this CD!
Right💯😍😚😗😛😊☺
Taylor Downing I couldn't agree more. and if she could've made a video for it, it would've been beautiful ❤
Brittany Alexander yes it would have
Static you're a music genius & Aaliyah timeless ....words won't Eva express the connection
Static did this???!!! Get tf out!!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of super favs .
He wrote most of the album. I loved it
He wrote most the album the love they had for each other made this album beautiful I think she executed static blueprint beautifully
The affect Aaliyah had on Static and Timbaland is crazy. They both created some if not their best work with her.
This song defines young love. When you have no real worries and the only thing you want to do is be around the other person all the time.
Yes
Im still here 4 years later loving this song!
Vibin' through Aaliyah's catalogue in 2020..
This is some island palm trees oceanfront jam.
CANDACE FOSTER Because of sound of the bells, I strangely get a winter vibe.
Sade Tucker I think of the holiday season such as Christmas
CANDACE FOSTER
Always thought that the song fits a kind of mood.
I get some of both with Japanese Cherry Blossoms.
Todo 1996 yeah because of the slay bells
That intro gives me chills everytime!!!!! SMH Gone too soon!!!
my favorite part
I sampled the beginning
Kal-El Keybeats dope asf!
Same. Also during the bridge where she's like "I put that on everything"
Fact! Instant chills
This song was so ahead of its time, especially the production. Actually, virtually the entire album's beats were in a league of their respective own. I always envision the pool scene from "Seventeen Again" to this cute song for some reason. My nostalgic memories mingling with one another lol
Unreleased/Underrated R&B Grooves wow cool
Yessss. Thats a great scene
That subtle low run at 2:42 “long as it’s you and me” is why I love Aaliyah. The detail in her craft is So unique and untouched!! My all time favorite artist! You are truly missed!!
She ate and left no crumbs on that part
Her best songs on this album were not released. In my opinion, Aaliyah sounds better on slow songs or mid tempo songs. I miss her music 😢
Stfu
@@nthuthukomdluli1052 rude
@@nthuthukomdluli1052 hush
this song is so tranquil and relaxing, 😍😍😍 she's the only artist I can play and never get tired of
This could play on the radio in 2020 and be a hit! Her music is timeless.
kay bee unique harmonies unlike today
2023
I remember playing this for my boyfriend a few months ago prior to us being in a relationship. I think that this song is what made us official.
Notorious G LOL, naw we're just really good friends. Honestly :)
well that shit shoulda been on repeat cause I would have made that move....lmao
lucky man!
Tina Tally Are you guys still together ?
Wow😍. I was just thinking of someone while listening to this🖤
I miss Aaliyah 😔😢 she was truly an angel walking on earth 🙏🏽

@@jilliandouglas6361 Mine too
She’s the Jhené Aiko of my generation 💯
It goes backwards.. Jhene Aikon is the Aaliyah of this generation..
Keybeats said this was the first song she recorded for the album back in 1999. They came out the gate swinging!
wow..she recorded this song in 1999? Way before her time..
+Hashawn Edwards Yes. She started the album in 1999 and this was the first track they recorded in New York.

+anjelheaven the vocals on i care 4 U were re-recorded for the album. its obvious her vocals were stronger in comparison to OIAM era
Mico, THE DON "i care for u" was recorded in 1996 for her last album.
Mico, THE DON no she recorded that in 96 aaliyah voice was always strong she just held back alot cause it was her style the laidback thing
I felt like Aaliyah meant everything she was singing about on this entire album.
This song is so beautiful
@@samcook6603 it really is

I Cry every time I think of Aaliyah It's Extremely Sad We Lost A Outstandingly Talented Woman She Will Forever Be Missed . R.I.P Aaliyah
Thass Ti q
Thass Ti me too
Currently in tears now. It's crazy, cuz I never looked up to or idolize any celebrity but her. Ever. It somehow still hurts😔
We sure did :'(
ThePr3ttyPr1nc3ss I feel the same way. I keep coming back to her music and I still can’t believe she’s gone. Such a beautiful soul
This song take me to another level I'm on music high 👍🏾🎤

Amerie's why don't we fall in love reminds so much of this song. They would've made an awesome collab together
Yess, Ameriie first album was dope.
True
Ashley M that would have been an awesome combo. Amerie makes some incredible songs. I think they would have been great friends. Amerie's first two albums are amazing
Aaliyah's came out first
earthT Music doesn’t matter who’s came out first. They both dope
The harmonies give me chills
Listening to Aaliyah all quarantine 2020. Aaliyah FOREVER. 🖤
I always cry at the beginning of this song! God bless Aaliyah 💍🎁🔥❤️👑😇💝
song so slept on
I wish it was a video for this song
Period
I Remember My Nana Bought Me This Album For Christmas. I Miss My Nana So Much. 😔 I miss Aaliyah too.
I bought this album in 2001 and listened to so much I had to buy another copy bc i wore the cd down. Listening to it now reminds me what a classic it really is..

This album was waaaay ahead of its time! The sound of it sounds like it was released this year. I miss her so much. RIP Aaliyah 🌺
2018 anyone?
Big!! Wig Yes sir
Big!! Wig definitely!
It's still whatever.. 💜
ofc
Yes
I love this song, I love the album. R&B greatness. Always gotta wonder, what she was going to do after this.
Think rock r&b with Trent Reznor
More acting.
Probably the slept on songs on this album. In my opinion, this was the birth of "Alternative R&B."
Dreamy classic
I wasn’t alive when she around but I think about her everyday 🙏🏾❤️
Still here 2020‼️‼️👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Classic who else still here in 2020? RIP to one of the greatest 🥺
I am hearing this song for the first time today !!!!! Glad I discovered it,better late than never !!!!!
RIP Baby Girl & RIP Static Major
1:10 this little beat change is SO dope to me 🎧💜
One of her most underrated songs. Argue with ya mammy.
oh yes. this just sounds like a spring/summer love...
so underrated. this song is beautiful!!!!!!
The chorus is magical
So underrated. I'm surprised it's not one of her most popular songs.
she was an angel on earth.
2002 I played this song so much.
This song could literally be released today and no one would even know that it came out in 2001. Aaliyah was most definitely of her time as an artist. Neither her music or style has become dated.
Tee Mee ikr I sampled this song on a beat you can listen to it on my channel the first video
The definition of class and smoothness. Miss you Aaliyah. Rest In Peace angel. Your voice and beauty is worth everything. Now I see why God wanted you close. Habibti!
This song here! Boy I tell you. S watery and flowy And perfect. So free.
Absolutely a beautiful woman, artist, style, all of it. RIP, still play all of her albums and she is still amazing 😻
This will always be my favorite Aaliyah song..
Oh my this is still my jam I don't care if it old this was real music wish it was on iTunes. Miss you baby girl 1979-2001 😍😘😘
Brian Cruz I remember buying this album when i was in the 10th grade. Sounds even better now.
Savageb me too. None of her recent music before her death is on iTunes. I wonder why?
Its because her uncle has the rights to them and he refuses to upload them, If I recall correctly
She would have been 39 ❤
Dunky I wanna curse her uncle out.
My fav on the album.
My 1st crush 1st love first everything around the time of this album I swear life use to be so good!!!!
2020 and im still bumping babygirl. Her and Static made beautiful music. She always delivered. Miss her.
