Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars "Dance" version is 100% better than the Sean Paul version..........2005-06-06

... and that just about says it all. I had never heard the Sean Paul version until I went to buy this song, yet that is the only version I could find. Where the dance version is crisp and is filled with tension and emotion, the Sean Paul version sounds like a 45rpm record played at 33. I know why this wasn't a hit, it's because this version was foisted upon us.

1 out of 5 stars Utter complacent crap.......2004-06-21

I will briefly sum up why I believe this song to be crap in it's purest form. But let me tell you something; I am not a boring old man who believes modern music isn't 'as good as the old days.' If I didn't know the full story behind this song, I would like it.

This song is shamelessly nicked.

The EXACT rhythm, and I don't mean somehow related, EXACT down to the last sound-byte, is in Dr. Dre's classic 'What's the difference' featuring Eminem and Xzibit.

All Blu Cantrell did was nick his beats. And she became rich because of his work. Which irratates me no end. I hate Blu Cantrell, the thieving, snivelling rat child.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2003-10-07

I hate when a great talent feels they have to add a rapper to make it big. This song did so so in the USA, but was a huge hit in the UK and Europe. This is one time I don't mind the rapper.

4 out of 5 stars R&B'S FINEST.......2003-09-14

I love Blu Cantrell since her song HIT EM UP STYLE came out she's been my fave in the R&B world. Now with her second single off her second album I don't understand whats wrong with us American's. this song is even better than her first singel yet it wasn't a success here. over in the uk this spent a month at #1, Blu's vocals are smooth as ever and her beauty seems to have increased. He lyrics are great and the beat is off the chain. Sean Paul adds alittle reggea flavor plus you get the version with Lady Saw. This should be a must have to all cd single buyers and all R&B fans. Blu puts whitney to shame. The only reason this dosent have 5 stars is cause the version without sean paul dosent seem as complete with oput the boy girl interaction.

1Breathe(lady Saw)(9/10)
2Breathe(Sean Paul)(10/10)

4 out of 5 stars Don't wait to exhale.....this is it!.......2003-09-02

In her new single, Blu delivers crisp, lingering vocals with a catchy riff; The R&B fan will be sated, you'll be dancing before the second verse. Reminiscent of her 'Hit-em-up style' smash - yet edgier.

IF you like this, check out the remix featuring Sean Paul..definitely adds some flava to the mix.
