We’re not giving her that song. Are you out of your mind?’ I was like ‘Why not? I’ll write a hundred more of those, it’s fine. But I thought, ‘Fine, I’ll go write another song.’ So I went off and wrote ‘Impossible.’ I went to cut it with her and I love how she sounded on it. It was such a cool vibe for us to be able to work together during those times. But I will never forget that I would have given away ‘If I Ain’t Got You.’ The song went on to win a Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.
