    Album: Sex, love, & pain
    Song: Heartbreaker
    Reason(s): Well, i was always told as a child "sweety you gon be a heartbreaker" and i kept sayn no im not. Grownig up i was a tom-boy and i never seen myself as a pritsy girl but more like one of the boys. I played sports and all. Then one day, about 3 year ago i strated to wonder why my male friends would sometimes get upset with me for nothing, and then my friend told me out the blue that i was a heartbreaker for all the wrong reasons that i could never understand...Wow.. that really had me like, on stuck.

There are so many songs that I could list but I really feel him on the track "Scream" As women we say how we feel about everything in our path but when it comes to this We/some could encourage the brother(s) more to let him know that you are in fact happy in that space and enjoying every moment that you get to share.

I've been there to. It took me some time to get over it, but in the end im still standing..lol...Love is a drug, you just can't get enough of. Peace&Love

Album: Now Or Never
Song: "I Cant Make You Love Me"

Its trippy but before Tank even recorded this song.. i remember listening to Prince's version on his "Emancipation" album and thinking that this would be a great song for Tank to record.

I could literally hear his voice.. his tone and those runs and riffs he does. Believe me or not but when i heard it on the album it sounded just like the way i had already heard it in my head.

I can relate this song because ive been there.. hell im there right now

It aint no pain in the world like loving somebody with everything you've got and searchin for more to give when that runs out only to discover that this person doesent feel the same way about you in any way form or fashion.

The hardest part is not that u find out that they dont love you.. the hardest part is you wish u could turn it off like a light switch and move on but you cant and that depresses you even more.

But life is too short.. dont waste your time tryna make someone love u who doesent(easier said than done) save your energy for that 1 special person that will love you just as hard as you are loving them.

This is tough! But I'll have to say that I can relate to I Can't Make You Love Me from Now or Never the most because I'm going through a situation now that is exactly what the song is about. I feel Tank's pain literally!

WOW.. I can't just pick one! There are so many ...I'm The Reason, When, You Mean That Much, Body, I Can't Get Down, Amazing, My Heart, Can I.... The list goes on and on. Tanks music mentally takes you to the place and situation he's singing about. The ballads are heart wrenching and emotional. They make you feel! If you're not in love they almost make you want to be :) lol. I guess that's what music is supposed to do but so many fall short. Tank is amazingly gifted!! Forever a Fan

Album Now or Never
Song: Keep It 100

Reason(s) I can relate to that song because I always keep it real with everyone

Album: "Force Of Nature"
Song: "Lady On My Block"

Although its not my die hard favorite and someties its hard for me to listen to.. i still can relate to it because in a way its a song about empowerment.. a song about taking your life back.

For those of you that dont know the song is about a lady who hypothectically lives on the same block as Tank.. she is very beautiful in fact Tank says at one point in the song that she coulda been Prom Queen.

She falls into a life of prostitution and one day as she evaluates where her life is and all the things she could have been and could have been doin other than her current situation she wants to make a change.

So one day she decides to stand up to her pimp and tell him she's not going to prostitute anymore and of course her pimp starts to beat on her to make her change her mind.. she manages to get to a gun and shoots the pimp 2 times and he dies.

I can relate to this song because alot of people have tried to keep me down and i have found the courage to succeed anyway. I know its cliche but we are truly"Masters Of Our Own Destiny"

It had to grow on me, but I'm feelin' "Keep it 100." The moment you start lying to the one you love, pain is unavoidable. Man up to what happened and let the chips fall where they may. I feel that...
BUT..."Unpredictable" from "One Man" is beautiful. I believe that every woman wants a man to spoil her and see her as the apple of his eye; that song portrays that.

Lost in you and All I need is you. Both of these songs are awesome.

Album: One Man
Song: Better Man
Reason (s): Since I was very young and until this very day Tank has always encouraged me to be a better person. I call myself tryna be the ideal female for Tank & tried to design myself into her after reading in an old magazine that he loves a women to be with a "Beautiful disposition, Pretty smile that's very spiritual". Playing around I got caught up with the Lord LITERALLY trying to be spiritual. Now I'm her. The Lord used Tank to get my attention. Everyday I'm becoming & strive to "A Better Man"

"Maybe I Deserve" not that I deserve it but he does

oh my i love his new song " i cant make you love me & baby please com back ............. hes so talented an i love him .............i can relate to baby please come back because i miss my ex- he left to take of his mom in NC we still talk but not the same we not to gether any more an i just miss him...

'I Still Believe'

because even though I went through a painful divorce because my husband cheated I still believe that somewhere is someone that will love me the was I deserve to be loved. So I guess you could say I still believe in love. That's what this song means to me.
