mary j. blige - you bring me joy (commentary) lyrics

[interlude]
man, “joy.” “joy” is about so many things, but let’s just start with the sample. i mean, that barry white “ecstasy” sample is crazy because i remember being a little kid and hearing them mix it on the radio and the intro alone would last like seven minutes. just the bassline just would rock for almost seven minutes. you know, it was a 12+minute long song. and so, um, you know, when puff brought with this record to my attention, we talked about that. we talked about how that bassline just lasts forever. but we had to — of course, we had to cut it down for this. “joy” is chuck again, chucky again, amazing. “joy” is basically pretty much thе same, about the same thing “all night long” is about ‘causе it starts off with, “you know if the time is right, i don’t wanna fuss and fight,” haha. so y’all, you know what my life was like. “joy” is basically saying, you know, “i don’t know what i would do, do without you in my life.” i didn’t want this person to ever leave me and i didn’t wanna ever leave him. and, and i just was singing songs that reference that, you know, so that’s what “joy” is about. “joy” is about me just singing, i don’t know what i would do, um, you bring me joy. in the midst of the fussing and fighting, you bring me joy. so that’s what “joy” is about
