Wow. Time flies.

Not a memorable no.1 of hers, but still, her power back in 2004-05 was monumental.

2004-2005? I guess you are super young cause she has been a powerful house since the 90s 

I agree though, not her best but way better than 99% of the releases nowadays

It was released in December 2005 so it will actually be 20 years later this year.

I mean no shade but she were never such powerhouse outside the US in the 90s, except for the "Music Box" era, so I didn't know much about her. However, I remember listening to "I still believe" and "My all" in the radios when I was young and being mesmerized.

To rephrase it, The "Emancipation of Mimi" era, was her first massively successful era that I lived to see as a teenager! And, yeeeees, DFAU is definitely better than anything on the radios nowadays, but it just isn't "We belong together".
