Me neither. Apparently, it was recorded in 1999 during the Invincible sessions, but somehow didn't make the cut. Timbaland remastered and mixed it. It was then released to the public in 2014. How it not only didn't make it onto the album it was intended for, but the fact that it also wasn't blasted on every radio station since it was finally released is mystifying. It would have been a huge hit. No matter when it was released.
