Still, one of my all time favourite songs.
It might be 12 years old, for me it sounds timeless really.

Lyrically, this song is also very good. The lyrics perfectly describe how everyone who's ever been in love can feel after a breakup.

Classic tune IMO. Very smooth and liquid sound with some good lyrics in it, and their vocals fit perfectly to the theme.
One of the finest pop tunes of the 90's :D

p.s. miss the 90s very much :(

Me and my classmate back then were the biggest ALL SAINTS fans in town! We were CRAVING for the album and basically listened to nothing else for months!

I also remember each of us had a favourite member. Mine was Melanie Blatt, Andrea's was Shaznay Lewis.

Great song. :D Another one of my favourites of 1998, which was an excellent year overall. 8-)

Amazing song. I always wondered what it would sound like if Timbaland had produced it though: definitely his kinda track. Obviously he shouldnt touch it though!

I love the spoken intro to the song. Another one of my 90's favorites.

Probably their best song and it'll certainly stand the test of time.

Somehow it felt like a classic-to-be then - and although I haven't heard it in years, I consider it a pop epic.

Was this their only hit in the US? I still adore this song, the spoken intro with the vocal harmonies is brilliant! :D :D

Sadly not one of my faves :(
Simply because when it came out I was suffering from depression and oddly the lyrics describe it perfect to the t.
As a result it takes me back to that awful time when I hear it. :-?
