Seriously, the way she came out of nowhere 23 years into her career and SLAYED me with this song.
- The iconic guitar riff
- The tambourine
- The "Ahh, ahh, you're beautiful" in the beginning
- The background "ahhhs" that come in halfway through Miguel's verse
- The guitar strumming that comes in at that same spot (playing the guitar riff notes as chords)
- The way MC first comes in to sing the "To me, to me" in Miguel's chorus
- The brief instrumental pause when MC sings "I like" in her verse
- Oh, how you thrill me!
- The light run she does at the end of her verse (that I didn't notice til like my 50th play)
- The whistles at the end
A more perfect song does not exist. The fact that it wasn't #1 for at least 14 weeks is a TRAVESTY.

fabulous analysis of this mishandled gem. It should've been much bigger.
Smh. Still can't believe his clumsy ass knocked her off that platform

Just threw everything off.
As for OSD, IF the record is broken, I won't be upset just disappointed that it wasn't broken by a better song. I mean, it's not even Bruno's best.
But

the girls chanting and envoking spirits, hoping and wishing the record gets broken. Talk about a pressed mess
