Written and produced by [Daryl Simmons](/source/Daryl_Simmons) and [Babyface](/source/Kenneth_%22Babyface%22_Edmonds), featuring additional production from [L.A. Reid](/source/L.A._Reid), it was released as the lead single and its opening track from Braxton's [self-titled debut album](/source/Toni_Braxton_(album)) (1993) on June 11, 1993, by [LaFace Records](/source/LaFace_Records) and [Arista Records](/source/Arista_Records). Lyrically, it talks about Braxton complaining that every song played on the radio is a reminder of her ex-boyfriend.

"Another Sad Love Song" received widespread acclaim from music critics and earned Braxton her first-ever [Grammy Award](/source/Grammy_Award) for [Best Female R&B Vocal Performance](/source/Grammy_Award_for_Best_Female_R%26B_Vocal_Performance) at the [36th Annual Grammy Awards](/source/36th_Annual_Grammy_Awards). It proved to be a success, giving Braxton her first top ten hit on the US [*Billboard* Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100) and [*Cash Box* Top 100](/source/Cash_Box_Top_100_Pop_Singles), as well as the *Billboard* [Adult Contemporary](/source/Hot_Adult_Contemporary_Tracks) chart, while narrowly missing the top position of *Billboard*'s [Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs](/source/Hot_R%26B%2FHip-Hop_Songs) chart by peaking at number two. Internationally, the song reached the top twenty in Canada and the United Kingdom, the top thirty in Iceland and the Netherlands, and the top forty in Scotland and on a composite [Eurochart Hot 100](/source/Eurochart_Hot_100).

Three different music videos for the song were produced. The first version was filmed in 1992 in [black-and-white](/source/Black-and-white) and featured the original music. The second version was filmed in May 1993 and was shown in color with exterior scenes from the first version. The third version was [remixed](/source/Remix) to appeal to a wider audiences and was primarily shown in Europe. "Another Sad Love Song" has been performed at most of Braxton's concerts, and is featured on many of her [greatest hits](/source/Greatest_hits) collections, including *[Ultimate Toni Braxton](/source/Ultimate_Toni_Braxton)* (2003), *[Platinum & Gold Collection](/source/Platinum_%26_Gold_Collection_(Toni_Braxton_album))* (2004), *[The Essential Toni Braxton](/source/The_Essential_Toni_Braxton)* (2007) and *[Breathe Again: The Best of Toni Braxton](/source/Breathe_Again%3A_The_Best_of_Toni_Braxton)* (2009).[1]

## Background and composition

After Braxton released her first solo single, "[Love Shoulda Brought You Home](/source/Love_Shoulda_Brought_You_Home)", in 1992, as the soundtrack of the film *[Boomerang](/source/Boomerang_(1992_film))*, which became her first top-40 on the [*Billboard* Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100) chart, she released "Another Sad Love Song" as the lead single from her self-titled debut album, *[Toni Braxton](/source/Toni_Braxton_(album))*, on June 11, 1993.[2]

"Another Sad Love Song" was written and produced by [Babyface](/source/Kenneth_%22Babyface%22_Edmonds) and [Daryl Simmons](/source/Daryl_Simmons), with [L.A. Reid](/source/L.A._Reid) also producing it.[1] Lyrically, "Another Sad Love Song" talks about Braxton complaining that every song played on the radio is a reminder of her ex-boyfriend. In the chorus, she sings, "It’s just another sad love song/Rackin’ my brain like crazy/Guess I’m all torn up/Be it fast or slow/It doesn’t let go/Or shake me/And it’s all because of you."[3]

## Critical reception

The song received positive reviews from the majority of the [music critics](/source/Music_journalism). Ron Wynn of [AllMusic](/source/AllMusic) named it a highlight from the album, writing that "Braxton's husky, enticing voice sounds hypnotic on the dismayed track."[4] Daryl Easlea of *[BBC Music](/source/BBC_Music)* praised that it "showed how well an accomplished production team could perform when married with a superior vocalist."[5] [Larry Flick](/source/Larry_Flick) from *[Billboard](/source/Billboard_(magazine))* magazine said, "Braxton cleanly proves herself as a future diva on this slow and rhythmic urban [ballad](/source/Ballad)". He added, "The cool thing about Toni is that she's clearly not afraid to get vocally raw and raspy, even when the instrumentation is as smooth as it is here. That kind of edge places this already delicious jam head-and-shoulders above the ever-crowded competitive ranks."[6] Mitchell May of *[Chicago Tribune](/source/Chicago_Tribune)* was very positive, writing that on the track, "the ache in her voice is all too real."[7] Dave Sholin from the *[Gavin Report](/source/Gavin_Report)* described it as "another L.A., Babyface and Daryl Simmons masterpiece by an artist with a great future".[8] Connie Johnson of *[Los Angeles Times](/source/Los_Angeles_Times)* praised Braxton for "going to town on the [soul](/source/Soul_music)-infused track."[9]

Pan-European magazine *[Music & Media](/source/Music_%26_Media)* named it "without doubt one of the best soul ballads of 1993".[10] Ralph Tee from *[Music Week](/source/Music_Week)'*s *RM* Dance Update remarked that she "steps out with a vocal [Whitney](/source/Whitney_Houston) would be proud of on a stylish, medium-paced two stepper that grows on you."[11] Another *RM* editor, [James Hamilton](/source/James_Hamilton_(DJ_and_journalist)), named it a "superb sultry slinky jogger" in his weekly dance column.[12] A reviewer from *[People Magazine](/source/People_Magazine)* called its intro "coiling, almost eerie", "bolstered by her full-throated alto."[13] John McAlley of *[Rolling Stone](/source/Rolling_Stone)* was extremely positive, writing that, "Another Sad Love Song – with its dynamic vocal, gargantuan hook and clever song-with-in-a-song lyric – surely ranks with '[End of the Road](/source/End_of_the_Road_(Boyz_II_Men_song))', '[I'm Your Baby Tonight](/source/I'm_Your_Baby_Tonight)' and '[Every Little Step](/source/Every_Little_Step)' as one of [LaFace](/source/LaFace)'s greatest triumphs." McAlley also wrote the song "reinforces Braxton's lovelorn persona, as do several other midtempo ballads that L.A., Babyface and Daryl Simmons have front-loaded into Toni Braxton."[14]

"Another Sad Love Song" became Braxton's first song to receive a [Grammy Award nomination](/source/Grammy) in 1994, for the category "[Best R&B Vocal Performance, Female](/source/Grammy_Award_for_Best_Female_R%26B_Vocal_Performance)", ultimately winning the award.[15]
