  3. Lady_D24 September 15, 2010

    It’s ok…

  4. jazybelle September 15, 2010

    cutebut the t***** wig has to go

  5. Theman September 15, 2010

    Amazing. Do your damn thing Kelly, Fresh Sound. She looks like a Superstar, and she looks Beautiful ! Hit Hit Hit !!!!!!!!!!! Just what she needs….

  6. Irvine Green September 15, 2010

    AMAZING! very simple but damn it she looked good her whole body movement made this video. Love her and am LOVING this video even more. Is it me or did she resemble brandy in some of them scenes???

  7. Rihsus September 15, 2010

    This is kinda basic.
    She looks gorgeous and the song is nice but she’s literally standing in one spot, dressed in different outfits for 4mins.
    Her album should’ve been out like 2 months ago while Commander was still fresh then released this song the month after. They’re just begging for her album to flop now pushing back into 2011.

  8. SD September 15, 2010

    why is reaching at the screen so much? who ok’d this video? I’m convinced Kelly’s team hates her.

  9. S*** September 15, 2010

    “Promotional single”?? NEXT

    The Song is kinda slow but OK. Cool Video Though, very Stunning. Huge step up from that generic Commander Vid. Very Beautiful. Isnt this supposed to be 3D? Shes gonna s*** in the U.K!! She really needs this video to be successful, It could do wonders for the Song’s Performance, It works for Gaga.

    @Sam could you please let go of these damn RocaFella Ads!! I mean I know they’re paying you well but It puts a “Jet Lag”/delay on the sites performance & not to mention its ugly.

  10. Minaj September 15, 2010

    Cool. Promotional single means its not on the album ?

  11. LOUD!! September 15, 2010

    @ Rihsus

    LOL, funny you say that cause…

    This Video >>> Every single Rated R Video. 😆

    & atleast this new Project from Kelly is by no means rushed like a certain Cute Goat I know of.

  12. Rihsus September 15, 2010

    Wait wut ?
    Gurl you don’t release promo singles for an album that’s been pushed back upteen times already to the point where it’s being released the following year.

    @Minaj
    Yes it will be on the album. Promo single means it’s sent out to garner interest in the album but like I said you don’t release promo singles for an album coming out the following year.

  13. urias September 15, 2010

    HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE step UP from commander!

    i love it. but all the scene changes felt un-cohesive. one to many outfit changes

  14. KD September 15, 2010

    The whole 3D concept is just wasted on me. I’m sure it would have looked great if I had them on, but I didn’t and as such the video is just O.K to me. Another thing I noted is that most of the scenes do not go with the song and were just thrown in there because they would look good in 3D.

    On the flip side she did look gorgeous and Ms. Rowland needs to give me the numbers of her boob-job surgeon (they were the highlight of the video) LOL.

  15. LOUD!! September 15, 2010

    Atleast this new music from Kelly is by no means rushed like a certain Cute Little Goat.

    #GO TEAM KELLY.

  16. Rihsus September 15, 2010

    @LOUD!! / S***, unless it’s a coincidence that you both share he same Gravatar.

    lolokay, stay delusional.
    U mad cuz Only Girl is already #1 on the itunes charts ? 😆

  17. KD September 15, 2010

    @ SD

    Who is the guy in the gravatar (pic). Me likey lots.

  18. Minhquan Nguyen September 15, 2010

    Having now heard the song and seen the video in their entirety, I regret to predict that if there is success to be had from either, it will be underwhelming. The production of the song is fine, but the lyrics are weakly matched to the music and there are no distinctive themes to stick in the listeners’ heads. This is an enjoyable song, but it is not memorable. The same can be said of the video. It has some pleasing visuals, but no unifying concepts or fresh ideas. I guess that’s the biggest obstacle for Kelly Rowland. She’s a good performer, and people like her, but to be a star, you need to separate yourself and she doesn’t do much of that.

  19. omzir September 15, 2010

    nuh uh. I mean… I love Kelly but this wasn’t good. The song is horrible… rose colored glasses just sounds so commercial. I think Kelly has to realize that her strength may be in indy music. I think she should try something less because this feels like an act. She needs to write with Solange.

  20. black September 15, 2010

    UMM i thought this was supposed to be in 3D…anyway its very simple, nothing to say ohhh look at this, but she is really pretty in this video

  21. Stoney-Brie September 15, 2010

    this is so beautiful!

  22. Nathan September 15, 2010

    Simple but amazing

  23. Muni September 15, 2010

    I love it, Go KELLY and haters back off, She is here now to stay.LOVE YOU KELLY!!!!

  24. elleuk September 15, 2010

    as a promotional single intended to gather interest in her album. kellhy should have came harder with the video and song. i don’t see the song competing well against the other rnb/pop tracks on the radio ad t.v. the song and video are both forgettable. not horrible enought to hate and not great enough to love,jus blah.
    and with another push to 2011 i don’t even see this album comming out.

  25. Trey S September 15, 2010

    pffff…..was this a fashion show ?

  26. UGh September 15, 2010

    i don’t like what she was doing with her hands

  27. royalkev September 15, 2010

    I’m not a Kelly fan , but that was probably her best solo video in my opinion. Commander was just all over the place and WLTO was bland with a dull video. I would have appreciated seeing more of a concept here, but her emotional performance was solid. I may sound petty, but I hate those Kelly nails. She need to get rid of the length, because they always remind me of Shanaynay and Kelly’s trying to transform into a classy woman. I did catch a few moments in the video where she resembled Brandy (especially when she wore that sheer dress). Overall, it was simple – but well done!

  28. Ghana September 15, 2010

    hot, its hot.

  29. OUPS I S*** ON YOU AGAIN September 15, 2010

    The video is OK and cute.Nothing to “Waow” at.

  30. the truth teller September 15, 2010

    GREAT VIDEO AS USUAL!!!!

    #TEAM KELLY

  31. cedric September 15, 2010

    sometimes when to stop being a hater for nothing, you mean that this video is seriously ill, all this beauty, simplicity, all graphics,
    is a song about a love story that does not work you’ll want what’s probably gaga, or of rihanna with these absurd gestures
    I say perfect, and you who complains to Her videos so that her album will be pushing, what you say that these songs will be in the album, she said to you? it can be put clips and songs to show the type of album and keep his fans and give them taste.
    you must really feel inferior to her that every time even when she does something good, not your own itch, you have rabies, you must find a reason to find pathetic evil.
    she never said this song is from the album, so stop each time that it merely delayed the album, her record label never released the official date, dates that were said were of media speculation, it is decided to make an album merveuilleux speaking of his world, now if you can not wait we do not care, it has its fans who buy it, only here in the usa that you see these hateful people, the beyonce and rihanna you are so blinded and snuff sway with their Illuminati, you have become stupid in a way which scares
    RIHSUS is what she told you that this song will be in the album? because you seem to know everything ok, do not speak for someone you are here to say it will be in the album or song will t’elle the album she told you? everything you can do these tell lies, speak for the other

  32. Darren September 15, 2010

    stupid…. boring…. amateurish… this girls album is gonna flop harder than anything this year (or next year)

  33. Chulo September 15, 2010

    Finally, A hot one from Kelly, Keep em coming

  34. KD September 15, 2010

    @ CEDRIC

    Firstly, I need you to get Kelly’s pube’s out of your mouth I think they are messing up your mental faculties case in point being the illegible paragraph that you just wrote, & that whole (Beyonce, Rihanna) illuminati b******* (do you have prove?).

    We are all entitled to our opinions and for you to try and dictate what we are allowed to say is B.S of the highest order.

  35. cedric September 15, 2010

    I’ll just tell you one thing, the world at its end, nothing works now everything is destroyed and the devil need to train full of people with him and those who know something will have hell will outnumber those who will go to heaven
    Now he needs to use all things in order to have the people, it was starting from the one you call President at the lowest scale in the same schools, even children are using the diable.ok these people sold their souls, for money, honor, glory to the world, the only proof I’ll give you, look, read, documents you on its people, things,
    so do not come tell me that the message they passed this art or videos of what other s*** now if you’re stupid or blind these good
    and now the great way to get the media people are the cinema, and now they are showing more and more because they know it all by the end, they must train more people, they are behind the music, film, fashion, now if you’re thinking that’s your problem ps me what I do is pray for them and all these people and for us

  36. KD September 15, 2010

    @ CEDRIC

    Lol, your level of delusion (which you mask as some form of intelligence) is laughable. What is it that I am being trained to do by these “illuminati” people & their video’s? Are a few triangles, baphomet rings and heads supposed to turn me into a satanist, murderer or some other diabolical individual? Try again.

  37. Karla September 15, 2010

    It’s not a promo song because Kelly NEVER announced it as a promo song just like she never announced her album was coming out in november. stop reading into enternet gossip

    RIGHT ..UNDER COVER FANS! FIND A HOBBY!!!!!

  39. Trucie September 15, 2010

    Love the song. Not impressed with the video. Matter of fact for Kelly Rowland and all the anticipation surrounding her album, the video was quite boring. The fashion was on point. That horrible wig brought a cheap quality to the video. For such great lyrics, the video should have had more of a story. And am I the only one thought that she was about to come out of her bustier? Omg

  40. That FLOP Juice September 15, 2010

    Boring song. We have heard million songs like this in the past 10 years. Nothing special.

    Boring Kelly.

    Beautiful cinematography. Better than the MEGAFLOP Commander video.

    Boring music video at all.

  41. bobs September 15, 2010

    I have to agree the video is very good. The song is great too. I hope she finds a hit with this despite the Grape Juice curse that hangs on her shoulders. I like how the 3D inspired the video entirely from limited movements, to hand gestures. A couple shots looked cheap, like a the end where it looked like the paper dot machine was right behind her in spurts, rather than a more even spread… And she didn’t always look cute in those blue shots. Over all great clip. Great song.

  42. Daniella September 15, 2010

    I dislike the word hater a great deed but if anyone on the earth had a haters it would be this woman I think she’s bloody brilliant and I liked the video a lot it I think it fit the lyrics in a weird way.

  43. Tia September 15, 2010

    News flash for the posters here everyone else loves it like everyone else loves the commander video and commander the song! lol see how your negative opinion doesn’t mean squat?

  44. dboy September 15, 2010

    i think it’s her best video thus far, she emotes aesthetically

    as for haters, thanks for watching the video and commenting, please come back for more and more , forever and a day is expected soon as well

  45. kelly stan September 15, 2010

    it ok but jus glad she back!

  46. Kicktheeardrum September 15, 2010

    the song and the video are so good. i can’t believe US radio hasnt picked this up yet. It really is a shame because Kelly is a great artist with major potential.

  47. mesouth September 15, 2010

    hotly anticipated my ass. (pardon my french u.u )
    Only thatgrapejuice waits for her videos.

  48. Gangstera September 15, 2010

    great video shes so freakin beautiful love it

  49. THAT PUM PUM JUICE September 15, 2010

    @S***

    I totally agree about the Ads at the top of the page…it’s scary seeing that girls face everytime i check out TGJ!

  50. Rudeboi September 15, 2010

    I agree I really hate that stupipd ROCA WEAR ad that girl looks dead or sick so not something i wanna see everytime I come here…..

    Great video from Kelly, she look HOT as always, the only thing is that there could have been more of a story line, however it doesnt take anything away from the video. Its a really emotionally charged video hence the lack of a strong storyline doesnt hurt the video.

    REQUEST ROSE COLORED GLASSES ON YOUR LOCAL RADIO STATIONS !!!!

  51. TEAM KELLY (ROWLAND) September 15, 2010

    OMG!!! U ALL HAVE TO SEE THIS THING IN 3D! WOW!!! I kept wondering why the hell she kept clawing her finger nails the first time I watched it, but with the glasses, it’s like she’s about to hit your face! LOL! Wow! this was fun… LOL

  52. kevv September 15, 2010

    this vid was shot in 3d right? or not.
    sow if, how can we ever see it in 3d…

  53. Chris September 15, 2010

    The video was horrible. And Sam, you’re a mess with that “simple, yet stunning” crap. You know good and well.

  54. Chile Please! September 15, 2010

    This was garbage the song & the video………she really blew it up in the making of this video like it was going to be sooooooooooooo hot! This was a plain weak & simple video nothing spectacular. Girl Bye!

  55. sokmidyk September 15, 2010

    HAHA SAM’s such a hypocrite if this were any other artist he’d be calling this a low budget boring video. And promotional single???? HA HA you mean first single unless its a flop?

  56. lostonesz September 15, 2010

    this video is beautiful

  57. CELEBRITY September 15, 2010

    I am considered a Kelly hater because I state the obvious when her music career is concerned. Her team has dropped the ball on many occasion’s that i’ve lost all hope in her ever regaining the relevancy she once had with DC. However, this video and this song is EXACTLY what Kelly needs. Her label should stand behind this song, invest in it. S***, pay radio to play it and it will eventually catch on. You’ve got a hit here Kelly, don’t let this one slip away, DO NOT LET IT SLIP AWAY.

  58. AuntieJackie September 15, 2010

    I liked the video a lot. Simple, and visually neat. She looked beautiful. They really F*cked up with Commander though. They should have released that s***, killed the video and then released this song. I’m just confused about her project. At FIRST they seemed to be doing a good job…but now it’s just all over the place. Does she care about the United States or what? Are all these singles she’s dropping attached to a project—or what?

    I smell a flop if she keeps at this rate….and I LOVE Kelly Rowland. Hopefully people who love dance in the U.S. will snatch up with album….I really want her to be successful.

  59. Boricua September 15, 2010

    @ SD she’s probably reaching out because those movements look good in 3D

    Why are her lil titties half out her top? loool

    Video and song are kinda “meh” to me…
    Might do well in the UK though…

  60. dakkylove September 15, 2010

    wow this is a simple, beautiful and emotional video just like the song, its a good thing her team is releasing it now that fashion is in the air, with all the beautiful fashion in there. at least to wet her fans appetites till she brings out her album next year. hopefully she begins performing this song on tv and promotes this single.

  61. ThaGuru September 15, 2010

    Amazing, Amazing, Amazing…..do ya thing kelly

  62. Dave September 15, 2010

    Seemed very basic. I wish there was more plot and story rather than random performance & beauty shots. I mean the song is about a relationship. It should’ve been more contrast in story and colors. And I’m a Kelly Rowland fan. It was simple, but not good simple. A simplesimple mess simple.

  63. True Diva September 15, 2010

    She looked very beautiful in this video, know doubt about that! But I just didn’t understand the concept of the video. But the video is simple but good, I thought it was gonna be like Kelis “fireworks” video! Most ppl wouldn’t know that this is a 3D video if she didn’t say so.

  64. Sharon September 15, 2010

    HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  65. LuvMeDJ September 15, 2010

    Okay so I like the song a lot more after seeing a video for it. I’m guessing the reason for all the “reaching” in the video is because its suppose to be 3D and it’d be like the hand coming out of the screen? Watever. She looks great, I kept looking at her boobs waiting for them to pop outta that black corset she was wearing. I’m tired of the WIGS Kelly! I really am…at least make them look more realistic!

  66. E11 September 15, 2010

    OK, I am really sorry to say this, but I am always trying to root for Kelly, but she is always letting me down. She never has a HIT, and her videos are WORST than Beyonce’s budget recession ones.

    COME ON KELLY. How can Justin Beiber and Rihanna have better songs and videos than u…? YOU NEED TO MAKE SOME HITS first and not waste your money on making loads of videos which will not make an impact.

    If you think im a hater, fall back.

    STILL IN LOVE WITH MY EX was her only potential HIT SINGLE!

  67. E11 September 15, 2010

    for those who think this was Amazing… just like the song says, ur looking thru some rose coloured glasses and have some ish on ur brain. Wake up ppl. if you really support kelly, u need to state the truth.

  68. Yan September 15, 2010

    Great song, good video. Go Kelly! 😛

  69. NikkiIsChillin September 15, 2010

    Okay. This is my favorite Kelly Rowland video! I loved it! Wow, the song is on point. The guy in the video is cute. She had a least 10 costume changes. Get it Kelly!!!

  70. goats suck September 15, 2010

    YAWN!

    Its a beautiful video, and she looks gorgeous but….its boring as hell

    FLOP

  71. tracy September 15, 2010

    *YAWNS* ITS THIS WHAT YOU GUYS WERE WAITING FOR… NEXT ARTIST PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE

  72. King September 15, 2010

    I was waiting for her tittie to pop out lol

  73. Mike September 15, 2010

    HEY EVERYONE……GET SOME 3D GLASSES and Watch this video…..FINALLY KELLY>> MAGICAL>>>>>3d glasses are needed for this video… 3d glasses are needed
    3D

  74. Ash Jones September 15, 2010

    GORGEOUS!

    American’s are dumb for not supporting her!

  75. English Babe* September 15, 2010

    i loooooooooooooooooooove this song.

    Kelly release that album already. SERIOUSLY.

  76. bdaboss September 15, 2010

    So how are we supposed to see this in 3D?

  77. Venessathevinylbox September 15, 2010

    STUNNING!!!!!……How many bold Indian girls Kelly got running around!

  78. bdaboss September 15, 2010

    BTW for those of you that are hating on the Commander video, check out the views of that video compared to your favorites!!!! lol

  79. CIARADABESS September 15, 2010

    AMAZING STUNNING #1 hit,

    She’s so pretty and looks like Ciara at many parts. Love this girl

  80. truth hurts September 15, 2010

    This just proves how wack, biased, and retarded Sam is. I mean isn’t it you who always uses the term ‘recession special’ you can’t keep that damn word out of your mouth with every other artist but whe Heather Small releases the cheapest video of them all it’s ‘simple yet stunning’
    You poor deluded stan. This is terrible and will flop.

  81. locodude September 15, 2010

    ok this is what Im talkin about! great video kelly!

  82. I’MJUSSSAYIN September 15, 2010

    I love Kelly but this is s***…It looks cheap and is not memorable at all. I’m gonna need for her to come harder….especially is she wants to stay semi- relevant before her album drops in ’11.

    Kelly…..Come ON son!!!.

  83. harvey September 15, 2010

    trust 3D verison is supposed to be released on the september,20…also this is a buzz single she only got mainstream pop radio adds.

  84. joshj September 15, 2010

    PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IN EVERY SENSE 1 OF MY FAVORITE VIDEO’S OF THE YEAR IF NOT MY FAVORITE!!

  85. MUSIC LOVER September 15, 2010

    It’s too simple for me. Where is the 3D version of this?

  86. spring September 15, 2010

    AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    SO PROUD OF THIS CHICK..

  87. True Diva September 15, 2010

    @ HARVEY

    This is the official video! This is it! Don’t be looking 4 another video on tht date bcuz it aint gonna happen!

  88. SohhJavier September 15, 2010

    Yess Kellz love it!!!!!!

  89. raraskils September 16, 2010

    this would be so much better in 3d….

  90. Independent Thinker September 16, 2010

    This video is visually stimulating and of course Kelly is stunning. I like it ALOT. I also believe that in 3-D it’s phenomenal. I would love to see it on the T.V. screen though. I’ve been saying for the longest that Kelly should release a videography DVD. It should include a pair of 3-D glasses since she as far as I know is the only artist to release a 3-D video. So cool. So incredibly cool.

  91. Dwayne Mactavious September 16, 2010

    Ms. Kelly….thank you for that! You really did the damn thing! I love this video…keep ’em comin 🙂

  92. nickalus Randle September 16, 2010

    pretty, nice, I just dont know tho, she needs 2 pump it up !!! I LUV HER !!!

  93. Confessions of a Confused City Girl September 16, 2010

    Freaking amazing! This is my next post

  94. quanberg September 16, 2010

    Stunning and Amazing !!! Bravo bravo, i’m going to find 3-d glasses just for this. kelly looks so surreal a true beauty !!! 2 thumbs up. for all u haters i read more positive ones that negative ones so how about u take off them rose colored glasses and see the truth. Kelly is coming just wait and see !!! U ROCKED Kelly

  95. Jasmine September 16, 2010

    I like it but I don’t think it is a good idea her label pushed her album back till 2011. She should have just scheduled a bunch of tv appearances and radio interviews and release these 3 songs/videos in the same month. Even though none of her three singles are “hits,” collectively they would have generated enough “buzz” to sell her album. By waiting until 2011 the little bit of “buzz” and interest in her project will be gone and there will not be anymore promo budget to help her get new buzz.

  96. kevin September 16, 2010

    Nice video. But…it’s called “ROSE colored glasses” and all we get is confetti? Nothing left in the budget for actual rose petals?

  97. Nikki September 17, 2010

    The video is ok. Just ok. Maybe I need a 3D glasses to see the 3D scenes.
    I was expecting more from the video. More scenes where she and her man were more than simple arguing; arguing is normal for every relationship. I would love to see what kind of person he was in public vs at home/ private. “…Cause they ain’t been through the things that you put me through. And they ain’t seen all the things that I seen in you…” I was expecting a Madea Family renuion where in public Blair Underwood was Mr. nice guy, he seems so loving; while she was undergoing abuse (mental, physical, etc.) in the private of her home and no one knew.
    I would love to see when the camera is doing 360 degrees around Kelly that she would have in the background various scenes of them arguing on different occasions; incorporation the different side of him in public. Also I would love to see the background change in difference colors as the background scenes change.
    I’m critical and I can’t help it.
