Chaka typically isn’t one of favorites. A lot of her vocal performances are hit or miss….however, this is a vocal best. I’ve always skipped this song on the WTE soundtrack, but I’ve been missing out all these years. I lay here in bed on a Saturday morning after losing my job and boyfriend, tears streaming down my face. The production, the orchestral instrumentation as the song builds, Chaka’s vocals.! I think I’m on the verge of a nervous breakdown. My world is imploding

OP, it will get better.
This is a temporary bump in the road. Life is a road that stretches out before you......listen to this and savor.

R1, thank you. That made me very emotional. I got up and opened the blinds, even though it’s raining here in the Bay Area. Putting it on my playlist when I go do laundry later

You're welcome!
I prescribe a few more songs as you recover.
This is the "beginning to get your mojo back" song.
"And if that turns you off baby you ain't worth me anyway"

For the moment you realize he was trash

And then one more.....for the moment you are ready to move on, releasing it all, tears down your face, reborn in the aftermath, jumping and dancing for joy.....yes, yes yes YOU will feel better

I love Loretta Devine. I watched Grey's Anatomy when she played Dr. Richard Weber's Alzheimer's-ridden wife Adele. Here's a scene in which they sing "My Funny Valentine" to each other. The song starts at 1:17, or watch the whole scene to know why they're singing it to each other (as he performs surgery, no less).
