Tha video was hot, but i mean it is a Mary J. Blige video so.she has always done good videos.All of them tell a short story you know? Her songs are so deep and her videos make tha songs even deeper. She writes from the heart, her videos be about things that happen everyday. She don't be having all the jewerly and flashing she be puting a message out to people.mary keep doing ya thing girl!

I am not a very young person. I am a person who has been through some serious life experiences. I have learned, that I can only be me. When I saw the video, I cried. I get emotional when I think of it because, there was a scene when her mate took the menu and ordered for her. I let him control every aspect of my life including having say with my own mother and father. I isolated myself from the world. Even my dear friends wondered what happen to me and my assertion! My self esteem was low. Eventually, I broke away, move to another state with my kids. I stayed there for two years, and decided to go back and face my issues head on, which was him. I did it!!! I knew I had to face him because of our children and I had the attitude of THIS IS ME, TAKE ME AS I AM, OR NOTHING AT ALL!!!! that is why the song touched me. I will forever be a fan and I hope you win a grammy for this girl. Keep making music that touches the heart. I can't stand those tiny bopper songs, yelling and screaming about nothing, lack of substance.Crazy sound effects like alarms ringing in their music. That is music that not last forever. Your music will be like the classics that are still played today.

My life went wrong at the young age, and, probably, will still affect me in the future. After such a terrible stuff like I've done to myself people are going crazy. But Mary helped me to live through it. Thank you so much! Thank you for the music, Thank YOU for all this feelings you put into it!!! Thank you just for beeing by my side when I've been hurt. Wish you best luck with everything. Love.Always.

I have been a MJB fan since What's The 411?, through Mary, I have grown. Truly an inspiration. It is no surprise. I really love the video as it relates directly to the song... I love the song. Mary J Blige fan for life.

I have been a fan of Mary J Blige on & off since she hit the scene. There have been several songs that just hit you and grab your heart. TAKE ME AS I AM has is definetly at the top of my list. The video, the music, the lyrics have grammy written all over it. Since Mary's return everything that she has put out definetly says "Diva". This song has grabbed my heart and is an inspiration to my life as well as others I am sure. This song is so transparent and I believe says a lot about Mary herself. Through her trials and tribulations she has surely been blessed. I am so happy that she has hung in there, stayed true to who she is and where she comes from. MARY, I TAKE YOU AS YOU ARE. You definetly have won me over with this song, video and you just being you. God Bless.
