Originally released on Ledisi’s 2020 album The Wild Card, "Like It Was" receives a stunning rework from producer Terry Hunter. "Like It Was" is full of soul, as Ledisi reflects about the complexities of love and the challenges of moving forward after heartbreak, longing for the past while navigating the present. The lively bounce and dreamy synth arrangement of Terry Hunter carries Ledisi beautifully as her vocals rain down love upon the track.
