Songs like this are the reason why I used to be such a big fan of the Neptunes. Most of the time a Neptunes beat can be so over the top that it has the tendency to overshadow the singer. Here however, they produced a very simple yet fitting beat that compliments a song that was already a hit to begin with. In addition, it proved their versatility showing that they could work with acts outside of traditional hip hop and r&b. This version of the song was included on the cd single to "By Your Side" in 2000. The original is from the album "Lovers Rock" which would end up going three times platinum in the U.S.
