    Physical intimacy is great, but like he said "making love just ain't in the bed." Sometimes mental intimacy is the best connection and most satisfying.

    It's when we as men use these ways to please the woman in our life, we bring out the queen that she was created to be. Brothers, remember, all good and perfect gifts comes from above. Therefore my brothers, cherish, love and protect the gift that God has placed in your life. "He that finds a wife finds a good thing."

      I have played the song over and over. And all I can say is love would be a Many-Splendored Thing, if it could go down like that. A woman can't do anything but, give her man the same in return.

    This song is only a set of instructions on how to make and keep a woman happy. Brothers, stand give your baby a standing ovation, she deserves more. Be the priest, prophet, and provider that God created and destined you to be. Cover her in prayer, love and understanding. Remember brothers, all women are good until we do something to make them bad. Do the right thing and remember that there's a million ways to please a woman.

    My first time hearing this song was yesterday. I had my alexa on a jazz station after work to just relax and unwind and this song came on. I was like this is so soulful and just a song to sit back, relax with a glass of wine (& I don't drink wine 😁). But it was right on time for me!!! The man that can do this FAITHFULLY has learned the art of a woman. He is mature enough to know this song speaks to her whole body NOT just her vagina! Kudos Mr. Downing! You knocked this one out of the ball park. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! Right by Soul Of A Woman!

    Let me tell you something. This song makes me be proud to say I've never had a problem treating a woman in my life because I understand that the little things you ignore as a man is what women admires the most. Maybe the word "please her" is a bit too much but treating a woman has to come natural with us men.

    If we as women want a man to treat us like this, we must earn respect for ourselves by stopping the "Friends with Benefits" relationships. Otherwise you get what you get. We have to take some responsibility for the situations we get ourselves into....take it from an old schooler.

    That is so true. There are so many ways that we can show that we love each other. Not just sex........
