And here is part two…

Chuck Eddy: Get-knocked-down-but-I-get-up-again pedestrian rock (as in, a song about walking –specifically, one that argues that running’s not as good–with a rhythm that sounds like walking), built atop boogie woogie keyboards out of early house music, under harmonies that feel more like soul music than any secular chart r&b in years. Well, they called it “soul” for a reason, I guess. Anyway, after a couple listens several months ago, this song was so indelibly embedded in my memory banks that, when I hear it now, I feel like I’ve known it forever. Probably my favorite single of the year, so far. And it sounds so effortless that I feel negligent for not having investigated Mary Mary further — Nothing else on their new album comes close, but as for their past, I’m clueless.

Michaelangelo Matos: Did this get left off the Boomerang soundtrack? It’s got scratches on it, praise Jesus.

Jonathan Bogart: I mean, I know Christian music is always ten years behind the curve. Lucky for them, then, that it’s been a good ten years.

Anthony Easton: Apparently, according to the Youtube comments, some controversy about the religious aspect of this video/song, but have almost no energy to handle it.

Jer Fairall: Walking as a metaphor for…resilience? Stopping to smell the roses? Hangin’ with Jesus? If you’re gonna construct your song around a platitudinal cliche, at least pick one and go with it.

Josh Langhoff: It’s about their Christian Walk and resisting the dominant culture, but it’s also a good song for literal walking — energetic mid-tempo, beautiful four-chord pattern that never resolves, good clear voices that are encouraging without making outlandish promises. Given the right weather, there are few more pleasurable activities than a humble walk. And on Mary Mary’s pretty good album Something Big, there are few more pleasurable songs than this humble centerpiece.

Martin Skidmore: I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised that a gospel duo sounds very like R&B from several years ago – gospel’s always lagged a step or two behind other soulful black vocal genres. It’s pleasant enough, well sung and quite bright and lively, but it’s also entirely lightweight.

Alfred Soto: The double Marys boast real advantages: they evoke late nineties Mary J. Blige yet project a less terrestial vibe. The production is purest late nineties Babyface too. I wish they gave me something I can feel — between my fingers, that is. They’ve got my heart already.

Edward Okulicz: You could tell me this was actually the follow-up to their 2000 hit “Shackles (Praise You)” and I’d not only believe you, but be a little disappointed I didn’t get to hear it back then. It has absolutely no friction to speak of but that doesn’t mean it’s not a breezy couple of minutes of pleasure.
