    Lyrics:
    Na, na, na, na, na, oh
    Na, na, na, na, na, oh
    Na, na, na, na, na, oh
    Na, na, na, na, na
    Oh, been trying to let it go
    Trying to keep my eyes closed
    Trying to keep it just like before
    The times we never even thought to speak
    Don't wanna tell you what it is
    Oh wee it felt so serious
    Got me thinking just too much
    I wanna set it off, but
    It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin
    It's this 1 thing that's got me trippin (you did)
    This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
    It's this 1 thing you did oh oh
    It's this 1 thing that caught me slippin
    It's this 1 thing I want to admit it (you did)
    This 1 thing and I was so with it
    It's this 1 thing you did oh oh

      @the middle man actualy she recorded this song year prior to this music video. Label didn't want to release the song, so she eventualy did it herself. It was hit in UK. Glad she did it, because this song with her vocals on it would be taken by JLo. Amerie had go go ideas in 2003 after All I Have Tour. Rich did that sound, what was result of "Can't Nobody" by Kelly Rowland and later "Crazy in Love" by Beyoncé. Amerie came out later because of obstacles with the label. If this would Come out sooner, it would be #1 for sure 🙂

    What I love about this particular song is the power in her voice. She sounds like she really means what she’s singing. Almost like this was recorded in the heat of the moment.

      She said in an old interview the producer she was working with ( her bf and essentially sold out to Beyoncé but that’s another subject )would push her to the point she’d get frustrated and cry. That’s where that power in her voice is likely coming from

      She still is very attractive. Black don't crack and Asians age very well too. Her mom is from South Korea. Tbh she doesn't want it anymore. She has a son (maybe more than one kid, not sure), a hubby, and she has a book club. She graduated Georgetown with a degree in English (which she earnedin the early 2000s before she launched her music career or around the same time). She still performs at festivals too. I follow her on IG and she performed at one recently. In all senses of the phrase, she has a good life.

      The American music industry is biased towards real talent. If she is looking to restart her career she should try it in the UK . the industry here won't let her due to their bias towards her.

      There is more to vocal performance than pitch
