Toni Braxton - The Ultimate Playist


Usually some of the lesser known, less commercial, songs from an artist are the best. Toni Braxton is alot like that. Whether the songs come from the same album, are a remix, live version or a cover version, this is just what I consider the best 10 works of Toni Braxton. 
  • Fairy Tale
    • Originally from her 2000, 'The Heat', album, 'Fairy Tale' is an acoustic guitar led song, written by Babyface. The song is brilliant and shows off how gentle her voice can be. 
  •  Hurt You (with Babyface)
    • Taken from her most recent album, a duet album with Babyface, this song has a great beat and even better lyrics.  
  • How Could An Angel Break My Heart
    • One of the nicest love songs ever written. The words to this song a amazing and it has the ability to never get old.
  • The Time Of Our Lives (with Il Divo)
    • While this song has never featured on any official Toni Braxton studio album, it remains one of her best songs. Her voice is amazing in this song and being backed by Il Divo just adds to the greatness. 
  • I Wanna Be (Your Baby)
    • Another great acoustic guitar led track and again written by Babyface. 
  • Yesterday (feat. Trey Songz)
    • This is the American version of the song, as the standard edition didn't feature Trey Songz, however I feel that this song is better as a duet. Brilliant words and a brilliant beat. 
  •  Woman
    • This is a cover of a Delta Goodrem track, but Toni Braxton makes it hers by giving an amazing vocal. This is from her 2010 album, 'Pulse'
  • Why Wont You Love Me
    • This song is also from her 2010 album, 'Pulse'. It closes the album and does it well. It has a very distinctive sound and is very dark but is a great song.
  •  The Little Things
    • This is a very rare Toni Braxton song, yet it is one of her best. Originally from her 'Ultimate Toni Braxton' album, this was an unreleased song on the album.  
  • Un-Break My Heart (Soul Hex Anthem Vocal Edit) 
    • While the album version of this song is amazing, this remix offers something different. Adding an incredible bass beat to the song makes it even more powerful. Some really interesting moments in this version.
