It made me stop and look at my man and fall in love with him again...for the umpteenth time. My partner and I just kind of looked at each other and it was agreed without a word being said .... "your crazy and I'm outta my mind", we knew it told our story."
"(I know that's not a word, but...). And I'm woman enough to admit it: When I heard this song the first two times, a tear or two escaped my eyes. (And I guess I'd been watching the Olympics too much because the third time I heard it, I envisioned an ice skater performing a beautiful, soft, flowing routine to it."
"But really it is all and none of these and in the case of John Legend he may never connect as he has with this song again - its contingent."
"Upon hearing this song I shortly thereafter was able to experience it performed by John Legend himself and the vocals and music just expressed the type of love I as a woman love experiencing with my husband."
"Beautiful song from my big fat wedding 2 means so much to me the last movie my husband and I watched before he passed this fall I played this at his memorial."
"I always like is voice and it always had some quality songsIs music always had a meaning about life in genrral."
"Great song from a good movie!"
"A miracle song."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Beyonce, with her gorgeous voice and fantastic vocals, reiterates that if her ex had liked her so very much then he should have been willing to make a commitment at the time, rather than shopping around for the best 'deal' - and that reacting childishly when he realizes that another man wants what he discarded is ridiculous."
"I put together 2 CDs for our 25th anniversary party."

"I bought the vinyl album back then and played it frequently using high end turntables connected to an audiophile grade system. Years later, I switched to high end CD players and improved analog system technology."
"It has been a while since i had heard the song, so i downloaded that version a few months back without knowing it was the shortened version. For a while, at least regarding the legal sites i checked, the short version was the only version available."
"BETTER THAN BETHOVEN. HE LIVED IN MY LIFETIME - PRICELESS. PRINCE - LEGENDARY - SOUL WARMING. MUST WATCH - Prince Performs “Purple Rain” During Downpour | Super Bowl XLI Halftime Show | NFL."
"movie to watch if you're fortunate and blessed enough to have your personal copy."
"This song has been my favorite for a very very long time."
"I miss this guy ........... this was my all time favorite by him."
"Great Product!"

"Still as good as it was years ago and still as anointed and relevant."
"Anything that Donnie McClurkin sings is anointed from God."
"I love the passion Judy Jacobs has in this song!"
"Best version of Days of Elijah ever."

If however, you are just looking to build a music library on a budget, I'd highly recommend checking out Amazon's free / cheap collection of music, featuring songs as well as albums. ), you can always check here…. FREE MUSIC: From Amazon Home page --> Departments (drop down menu) --> Digital and Prime Music -->Deals --> Songs by Price / Albums by Price (on left side of screen)."
