Wonderful Song

"When you hear Toni Braxton sing, it's like healing the soul. This song "You Mean The World To Me" is just flawless. Babyface, LA Reid, and Daryl Simmons mesh beautifully as the songwriters/composers/producers. Toni B's delivery of this ballad is the icing on an already scrumptous cake.
It's too bad that many of todays R&B songs (and singers) don't (or can't) deliver this kind of soul singing. Where ARE the singers of the 90's?? You know America is full of it when they rush out to buy records from Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Mandy Moore, and others over a classic talent like Toni Braxton.
It's a good thing that Anita Baker didn't sing these songs written for her because as great as Ms Baker is, I don't feel she could have matched Toni's earnest-sounding pleas through her perfect vocal tones.
This deserves higher than a "5"."
Pretty good cut

"hard to believe it's been a bit over a decade since this song&Her Debut album dropped.this cut works mainly because of Toni's range&the vibe she brought to it.a pretty good cut."
