IMO this song is about Usher and his wife....a possible breakup. Rumor has it that they are separated as of May 28 and that she is filing for divorce. What are your thoughts? Beautiful love song.

I really like this song and it's rare that I like any Usher song for anything more than light fluff.

I don't know who it's about but I think that it perfectly captures that point in a relationship where you just can't go any further. Too much trust has been broken and there's too much anger on both sides even though both people still love each other.

It really is a beautiful song.


I don't care about Usher's personal life. I wish him well, though.

I cannot stand this song...It annoys the shit out of me. Maybe it's due to the way he sings it. He sounds like he is yelling and whining all at the same time.

I don't like the video

I still can't believe Usher's "Here I Stand" isn't even platinum yet? It came out in mid May right?

Quite frankly, this CD is not his best work at all. It is not as good as Confessions, IMO. The writing sucks, so does his voice and the music is wack. I liked it better when he was making up shit, like he did on confessions. At least it was interesting.

Boy I just could not disagree with you more. Now it's no confessions, but it is a great album,,the guy is obviously in love and the songs reflect that.

REALLY! I can't understand how ANYONE could LIKE Usher's stuff! It's complete shit all the way through. Who gave hima record contract? His voice is emberassing, nothing special. He doesn't write his own songs. He copies MJ with every blink of an eye. He's ugly.

Eric Benet's CD, "Hurricane", is an expression of love. Alanis's first CD, was an expression of hate...but in no way are those cd's as bad as this new one by Usher is. Don't get me wrong, I liked "Confessions". Maybe cause it was a more cohesive effort. This cd sounds like something he just threw together.
