Background and composition [edit]

After the success of the previous single, "Another Sad Beloved Vocal", "Exhale Again" was released as the second official single from Toni Braxton's self-titled album, on Baronial 6, 1993. "Breathe Again" was written and produced by Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, with co-production beingness handled past Daryl Simmons and L.A. Reid.[one] Lyrically, in "Breathe Again", Braxton would crumble and have a nervous breakdown if her boyfriend were to break up with her, singing, "If I never feel yous in my arms over again/If I never feel your tender kiss again/If I never hear I love y'all now and then/Will I never make honey to you once again/Please empathize/If dear ends/Then I hope you lot, I hope you lot, that/That I shall never breathe again."[2]

Critical reception [edit]

"Exhale Again" received generally positive reviews from music critics. Ron Wynn of AllMusic picked the song every bit a highlight from the album, writing that "Braxton's husky, enticing voice sounds hypnotic on the track."[three] According to Daryl Easlea of BBC Music, the song "fully established Braxton," calling it "a fragile ballad that refused to resort wholly to cliché, it is brought to life past Braxton'southward dreamy, breathy delivery."[4] Larry Motion picture from Billboard described information technology as "a yearning, R&B-framed ballad." He added, "Once again, her vocal is expressive and moving—by and large due to an unusual willingness to permit some rough-edged notes mingle with the sweet diva-similar tones. Braxton's earthy personality makes her seem more accessible than a lot of other chest-pounding singers."[5] Also Mitchell May of Chicago Tribune was very positive, writing that "the way her phonation throbs when she sings, 'I can't stop thinking nearly you,' conveys a sense of despair and longing that is rare."[vi] John Martinucci from the Gavin Report described it as "melancholy".[7]

Alan Jones from Music Week deemed it "pretty and radio friendly", adding that "this seems sure to launch Braxton here [in the UK], though information technology will struggle to repeat its Superlative 10 placing."[8] A reviewer from People magazine called the song "haunting", writing that "the quaver in her voice says more well-nigh honey'due south promise and cant than many singers manage in a career."[ix] John McAlley of Rolling Rock chosen it "the album'due south best textile", writing that "Braxton's love hangover has reached ludicrously epic proportions."[10] Steve Selection from St. Louis Post-Acceleration noted that "here'south another distressing love song from a sultry alto vocalizer who seems to be getting the best of the LaFace production squad's piece of work this year. This pretty tune benefits greatly from Braxton's ability to hint at the over-the-top histrionics she never quite falls into. Equally a result, information technology's both smooth and edgy."[11] James Hunter from Vibe said that Babyface'due south writing on "Exhale Once more" "gives the deserving futurity star melodic peaks and valleys to explore with her gorgeously detailed, unconceited vox."[12]

The accompanying music video for "Exhale Again" was directed by Randee St. Nicholas. It was filmed in England and is set in black-and-white format. The concept was Braxton running through a maze, clearing her thoughts of a special kind of love. On her DVD, From Toni with Dearest... The Video Collection, 2 other versions of the video are also featured: the "European version" and the "Spanish version".[22] On the same DVD, Braxton commented nearly the video, saying, "This video was originally filmed in colour and Randee St. Nicholas, the manager, didn't like the maze part, she said it looked similar piles of dirt, instead of these beautiful green [...], she said it looked similar chunks of rock, so she put it in blackness and white."[22] Near her look, she said, "I remember my stylist was going crazy, trying to notice a 17th-century wearing apparel, and my hair was brusque, and I didn't desire to wear wigs and my stylist put these little extensions in my hair and It was then cold and the dress was so heavy."[22]

The video for "Breathe Once more" was afterwards published on Braxton's official YouTube channel in October 2009. It has amassed more than 56 million views every bit of September 2021.[23]
