You're All I Need - Method Man & Mary J Blige
Be Without You - Mary J Blige
Two songs I have loved from the moment I heard them...two songs I can never enjoy again...
They remind me of my son's father (his ringer for me was Method Man and MJB and mine for him was MJB) the words in the song spoke true to what was going on at specific times in our relationship...
"You would rub me on my back and say baby it'll be okay...just like in the song you did that for me even when stuff was uncertain and our son was on the way I knew you were in my corner." he told me years later.
And I chose Be Without You because after we broke up in 05 and got back together in 06 that's how I felt...I would wait for him to get home at night so we could go to bed together...I figured it would be me and him forever...didn't work out that way unfortunately or fortunately...depending on how you look at it.
Either way...when I hear those songs I always change the station or walk away so it's out of earshot...it just makes me kinda sad.

Girl, I know how you feel. The only thing is I could listen to "You're all I need" any day, but the "Be without you", no, I can't listen to that.
i have songs, but they don't stop me from listening to them. i find moreso than anything else, i have songs that will trigger me being mad at them moreso than being sad for them.
so i'll hear some shit and be like, i wanna go push my ex down a flight of stairs or some shit. never i wanna sit around and cry over here like jodeci.
