The title track of Ne-Yo's second album is one of his all-time best.
I love how the subtle piano backing plays off the heavy beat and the slapped bass.
There is a lot of layering going on here, we get strings and some subtly muted guitar as the song progresses.
Then we get Ne-Yo's wonderful voice holding the whole thing together as well some tasteful harmonies and backing vocals in the pre-chorus and chorus.
Ne-Yo is a top level songwriter - just look at his writing credits - and his skill comes through in this beautiful song.
Because Of You
