Remarks:
This has reached #19 on the US R&B chart so far in 2019. The song has been out for a few months, but video came out just two days ago. I love the song – she could probably sing about peanut butter and I would still like it – but I am not sure about the video.

Lyrics:
Mm, mmhmm, mmhmm, mm, eh
[Verse 1]
Wanna believe what you say
But I hate you on most days
You’ve been testing my faith and my patience, yeah
And you know that I be head strong
But you know that you be dead wrong
Telling me to relax when I’m reacting
[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I’d rather fight
Than lose sleep at night
At least you’re all mine
And if I have to choose
My heart or you
I’m gonna lose, yeah
[Chorus]
What if nothing ever will change?
Oh I’m caught between your love and a hard place
Oh I wish there was a right way
I’m caught between your love and a hard place, oh
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
[Verse 2]
Do I even have a choice when-
I’m gonna have to pick my poison
Yeah you hurt me so good, it’s so good
And even when you ’cause tears
You’re the one who wiped them away
Maybe that’s the reason I stay, I stay
[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I’d rather fight
Than lose sleep at night
At least you’re all mine
And if I have to chose
My heart or you
I’m gonna lose
[Chorus]
What if nothing ever will change?
Oh I’m caught between your love and a hard place
Oh I wish there was a right way
I’m caught between your love and a hard place, oh
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
What if nothing ever will change?
I’m caught between your love and a hard place
Ooh I wish there was a right way, yeah
I’m caught between your love and a hard place, ooh woah ooh
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
Oh I’m caught between your love and a hard place
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
Oh I wish there was a right way
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
I’m caught between your love and a hard place, oh
Woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah, oh oh woah
[Outro]
I’m caught between your love and a hard place
What if nothing will ever change?
I’m caught between your love and a hard place

“but I am not sure about the video.”
May I ask what it is about the video? Is it something about the relationship dynamic that the video portrays?

I said:
I would not be surprised if my grandchildren wind up knowing her music mainly as a peanut butter ad – like how they turned Marvin Gaye into a raisin ad and Otis Redding into cat food.

The video comes off as self-congratulatory. I mean, she could have made the point that her professional success was putting a strain on her love life without having someone in the video literally telling her she is “fantastic”. The huge. adoring audience was bad enough. It was off-putting. Maybe it is the Sade fan in me.
