Even though you have someone you love, your heart gets stolen by someone else.

This duet by American rapper Nelly and singer Kelly Rowland sings of the anguish of such a forbidden love.
The male-perspective rap and the female-perspective, heartrending vocals vividly portray the painful dilemma of two people irresistibly drawn to each other.
Released in 2002 as a single from Nelly’s album “Nellyville,” the song dominated the Billboard Hot 100 for ten weeks.
It won a Grammy the following year and is also included on Kelly’s solo debut album “Simply Deep.” Even knowing it’s a love that shouldn’t be, you just can’t hold back your feelings.
This song might gently accompany your heart as you struggle with those complicated emotions.
