Synopsis
Dru Hill perform the emotionally charged breakup ballad in a polished, performance-focused video that alternates between group shots and scenes from the 1997 film Soul Food. The visual atmosphere matches the song's theme of a relationship losing its intimacy and communication, while the movie footage extends that feeling into a broader family drama. Sisqo handles the lead vocal as the quartet delivers the song with restrained choreography and a distinctly late-1990s R&B presentation.
