Toni Braxton - I Heart You

by **firefly_86** » Mon Mar 19, 2012 11:53 pm

Ok, I *LOVE* this. Her voice sounds sublime and I just love that if she was going to try a dance route, she went for a proper dance on a podium in a gay club with your shirt off dance song. None of that contemporary R&B/dance hybrid bullsh*t.

And it's not too far removed from some of her own stuff, it reminds me of some of her remixes.

Exactly! This song doesn't make her look like she jumped on the electro-pop/dance trend that other R&B artists are into now. It sounds more like the 1990s remixes made for the female divas. I'm curious about the video.

I hope she sports long hair, something that's not like "Make My Heart" in which she tried to channel a youthful look that didn't translate well.

Oh she looks so ugly it's not funny :-?

It's like she hired Keri Hilson's video stylist

I'm gonna need her to throw that black laced front wig back on. Long haired Toni>>>>>>>>>>>>>short haired. This is probably the 1st time I seen her look close to her age :oops:

She looks much younger when she sports longer hair. 8-)

I feel so disappointed. :cry:

It looks like a cheaply done music video, I have been ranting about her hairstyle in her General Artists Discussion. I wonder what Tamar thinks. :-?

I'm sure there will be loads of styles and wigs as per most Toni videos! I think she looks youthful with the short hair but I definitely prefer her with the long

Toni Braxton Gives SheKnows The Scoop

Toni Braxton is back with a sexy new music video -- and SheKnows was there to capture all the behind the scenes action during the video shoot. Check out our photos!

It's hard to believe it's been 19 years since Toni Braxton broke out onto the R&B scene with her self-titled debut album and hit single "Breathe Again." Many female singers from the '90s have faded away, but Braxton is still going strong, despite financial and health challenges. Need proof? The singer and autism advocate just filmed a sexy video for her new single "I Heart You" over the St. Patrick's Day weekend — and SheKnows was invited to watch the songstress in action.

"I Heart You" — the single from her upcoming album Heartstrings & Synagogue Vibes, due out in May. "You're going to want to dance all night," she said recently. "Let's say it's probably very 'Last Dance'-ish."

Braxton went on to say that she put all of her effort into the new album. "I'm kind of a beast, I'm kind of bad in the studio," she said. "I'm a perfectionist and I repeat things. I want to get it right so I make the engineers 'give it to me again, give it to me again.'"

That's no secret to fans of the Atlanta-based star of Braxton Family Values. Braxton works tirelessly on her career and for causes dear to her, like autism awareness. Her son, Diezel, is autistic and she's partnered with SheKnows on the "Where's the Other Sock?" campaign to raise money for Autism Speaks.

"I felt sorry for myself for a long time and I blamed myself. I thought it was something I had done," she admitted when she learned of Diezel's autism at age three. "Friends came to me, that are like me, and said 'Okay, you're not a victim, our babies are great, they're fine, get him into these therapies.'"

Diezel was there to support his mom during the shoot -- as was her other son, Denim.

"Early diagnosis makes a lifetime of difference," Braxton recently said of her son's treatment. "We have him in occupational therapy, speech therapy, he's being mainstreamed [and] he's in public school, general ed. He does have his special ed therapies, but we are very, very lucky."

The song is kind of stale... but I like it more than her previous singles...

It makes me feel like it's a buzz single, because I don't see Toni on the single cover! :lol:

Thanks for this, Matt! 8-)

I think the video will somewhat look like a cross between Janet's "Make Me" and Madonna's "Celebration"..hopefully!
