Common ft Mary J. Blige – Come Close
"Come Close," produced by the Neptunes, is a smooth groove from Common's Electric Circus album. It was Common's marriage proposal to Erykah Badu at the time, and Mary's voice was angelic. The accompanying music video was perfect because Common is in love with a hearing impaired woman and he is declaring his love to her by using big cardboard signs. It was so emotional and endearing because Common is simply saying he will love his woman at all costs.
