Customer Reviews
SIMPLY BRILLIANT
The kick drum is deep for a reason - because it hurts. Rhythmic breaths and vocal ticks like guilty onlookers watching two people break into little bits. The accordion, always the most unsettling and strangely alluring of instruments, spirals upwards into histrionic territory, and later some sound is spun backwards, looking for a state, sometime previous to the song, when things were alright, when we could talk, when we could touch. Aaliyah's vocals run into each other in a state of near-panicked bewilderment, as she pushes herself too high, unable to apologise because it's not just her fault, while Tim's drawl tells us how much he's had of this - "I'm tired of arguing, girl" - which is precisely enough to make him start to walk away. And always questions. "Where were you last night?" "Where'd you go instead?" "What was in your head?" "Am I supposed to change? Are you supposed to change?" "We have so much confusion..." This song is simply brilliant, one of the best singles of the new millennium. Not only is the beat superbly avant garde, but the lyrics are astonishing.
One of my Top 5 Aaliyah Songs
This song is very cool and has a mysterious feeling and the video matches it well. I love both the song & the video.
I'm also happy to have the two other songs 'cause I have the European version of the Aaliyah CD which doesn't include Messed Up. It should also include the instrumental, a cappella and no rap versions of the song, I have them on a promo CD and really like them.
Best To Date
This song has to be one of her best to date. The infectiously dark and eerie vibe this song projects is enough to keep anyone hooked and wanting more. Her album 'Aaliyah' showed her maturity and growth as a young female artist who was tragically cut in the midst of her prime. Including a previously unreleased track "Messed Up" alongside "Are You Feelin' Me?" from the RMD Soundtrack, AND the beautifully sexy video to "We Need A Resolution" it certainly is the total package.Like Aaliyah was and still is to many fans all across the world.
We miss you babygirl..
