Ok, let me lay out the scenario for you. The love of your life has just been presented the career opportunity of a lifetime. The only problem is that it’s in another city … on the other side of the globe. Now ordinarily, you’d support their dreams and ambitions, but this is a tough pill to swallow. Instead of just coming out and saying, “I don’t want you to go,” you’ve decided to subtly send messages that the love between you is too important to walk away from. On the night before they’re set to leave, you decide to play a song to poignantly express just how much they mean to you. The only problem is you just can’t decide on the song. You’re stuck between Musiq Soulchild’s “So Beautiful” and Alicia Keys’ “If I Aint Got You.” You consider both songs to be great selections, but you can only choose one. After looking over the lyrics of both, you take a deep sigh and make a decision. Which one did you choose? Vote below, and explain why.

Fly Lyrics:
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you,


Musiq Soulchild “So Beautiful’

Fly Lyrics:

It just feels so right
I don’t wanna waste no time
If I had to choose I know
I’m gon’ always choose to be with you

Girl don’t you know you’re so beautiful
I wanna give all my love to you, girl
Not just tonight but the rest of your life
I wanna be always here by your side

    I voted for So Beautiful. The lyrics to both are cool, but the line “Not just tonight but the rest of your life” is the one that seals the deal for me.

      Thank you. I know I have to be strong but its hard. Guess if its meant to be it will be. *kanye shrug* oh well. I try not to think about it because it makes it that much harder.

    Loooove both songs! I would probably be crying my eyes out and be whining so loud that he couldn’t hear the lyrics :)

    Hands down I would pick the Musiq track. It is more uplifting, says what you want to say without adding more sadness and depression to the situation. Alicia sounds like she’s crying and there would enough of that from the people in the room.
