lol Not to big on the song (it's alright shrug ), but I know it's directed at Eminem and the video just cements that fact. Eminem took years to make that retaliation song and Mariah probably wrote this song in less than a month falloff They're little beef is hilarious to me and I can't wait to see how long Em takes to retaliate on this one.

Song is OK at first, but it drags by the end. Production is pretty basic aswell, but I guess this is the normal for commerical rnb these days is it?

And whats with the breakdown around the 1:35 mark? Suring the breakdown should come after the second chorus? Not only that, but the break is terrible anyway. Just a bunch of "ah ah o o o o o o". Pretty lazy and dated if anything...then to top it off, it goes into another verse. Just a bit odd.

Its hilarious because they both seemed "obsessed" with each other. The song isnt that good at all, but it is better than "touch my body" but that is in no way a compliment so dont go crazy. She looks good in the video, as Mariah, i could do without her with a beard, but i get that she wants to be the Pamela Anderson of music.

You know...ever since MJ´s passing...one of the voice inside of me says "what? Is this it? Shall we do just with soulless music and stupid videos of girls showing off their boobs and guys trying to f*** them?" Mike I´ll miss you so incredibly much.

I am sorry, I don´t like the song, nor the video. It seems that I´ve heard and seen this thing around million of times already...

Thank God we still have Prince. Our only hope.

i know its become almost impossible to rely on a certain artist to give us consistent material, but there'll always be some good songs here and there that we'll feel connected to.

Well the song is OK nothing special but better than Touch My Body. The video is a disaster, OK Mariah doesn't exactly have a history of making good videos but she has done better than this. Especially the part where the vehicle hits the guy and Mariah has this fake shocked expression in her face has great comedy value. It seems her acting hasn't improved since Glitter at all. lol

MJ didn't exactly gave you tones of soulful music and great videos in the years prior to his passing. RIP Michael

I remember in Highschool i used to think of mariah as a legend, now i can't even take her serious. IMO these cheap videos and wack trendy songs that will be forgotten in like 5 minutes is bringing her star status down.

Oh the video was typical, and it was uncomfortable looking at her dressed as a man. So narcissitic.

Anyways, after Michael's death, its like im over music, it sucks now. Look at mariah, beyonce, britney and none of them are doing anything great.

Ok, I don't get it. It says I can't view this because of the country I'm in. The last time I checked I was still in the USA. Have I missed something?
I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

Mariah has never been it to me. I mean all her songs sound the same, the whole over-use sex kitten act is played. How did she make it this long i would never know oh wait she jump on the Hip-Hop train just in time. Next>>>>>

That looks like one hastily put together video, the production values are top notch, but the concept, direction and editing are horrible.

The songs is actually growing on me.

The video sucks, but Mariah looks really nice.

You know now that I think about, I think the fact that she can't sing like she once used to be able to classifies why she's changed her style a bit with the singing and all.

The fact that she's using autotune is sad and disturbing..Someone(not Nick Cannon) need to tell her autotune is D.O.A. and to sing shit more her age.
