#NewMusic, Toni Braxton – Long As I Live

Via, Instagram

Toni Braxton is back with a new single called “Long As I Live.” In true Toni fashion, “Long As I Live” touches on true R&B, and reminds me of 1996 “Secrets” album Braxton. Braxton has a way with her voice that connects with the soul, and this song is no different.

It’s the second single from her upcoming album on Def Jam records, “Sex & Cigarettes,” following her first single “Deadwood.”

“Can you not tell/ by the look on my face/ I still like you that way/ Now I can hardly remember why/ We ever lost touch/ Boy I can tell/ That I Love You/ I still love you/ Long As I Live/ I’ll never get over/ Its killing me/ I’ll never get over”
