Like Stuck with Each Other (also featured today), San Diego singer/songwriter Jeremy Thurber‘s new single addresses the temptation to cut one’s losses and leave when a relationship hits stormy seas.  In contrast to Shontelle‘s ironclad commitment, however, the Booth newcomer’s resolve to see things through isn’t quite so strong, and he elects to walk away rather than staying in a relationship that forces him to say, “I Love You But...”  Though the message is hard to swallow, the singer’s earnest vocals and The Youngboyz’ mellow keyboard-and-handclap production are sweet enough to make it go down a little easier.  I Love You But poses an interesting question: is it better to hang on to the bitter end a la Shontelle, or to say goodbye when your gut says it isn’t going to work out?  As always, our readers get the final say.

GOOD vocals, but he puts his best performance and melodies on the verses and bridge... it's a shame the chorus is not as strong. It starts good, but then the repeating "love you" is bland and the “but” sounds out of place!
Are you sure it's not "Because of you" you're talking about WOW? :p It does remind "because of you" only on the production side(piano, tempo). But there is enough goin on the background to shine on its own merit!

he's got a catchy voice and flows nicely.... I see it is well-produced & mad crispy vocals .... This record has great balance, not too poppy but also not too traditional.... Banger ....
My Pick for Track of the Day on booth .....

He's got a good voice but it's the typical boy band voice lol! I'm really feelin the production but the melody is kinda mainstream, nothing original. A pretty track but nothing amazing...

I was thinking it reminded me of a Ne-Yo production when it first started too. I think its a solid product. Jeremy has a good voice. I'd like to see what else he plans to come out with.

THIS SONG IS DOPE!!!! I love how he keeps using I Love U But and doesn't answer it until the end of the song with "It's Over"! We need to get this on iTunes!
