Therapy (Mary J. Blige song)

"Therapy" is a song recorded by American singer Mary J. Blige from her twelfth studio album, The London Sessions (2014).

The song was released as album's lead single on September 23, 2014 and peaked at number 28 on the US Adult Contemporary chart.

[2] The pair was among a host of young British acts commissioned to work with Blige in London following the success of her version of "F for You", a remake of English electronic music duo Disclosure's fourth single from their debut studio album, Settle (2013), and her duet version of Smith's "Stay with Me".

[6] It consists of a spacious beat, handclaps, a Hammond organ and the multitracked humming of co-writer Sam Smith.

[2] Andy Kellman from Allmusic magazine felt the song was "seemingly inspired more by Anthony Hamilton's Southern gospel-soul",[8] while many other contemporary critics viewed the retro-soul sound of "Therapy" as a relative of and an answer to late English singer Amy Winehouse and her 2006 song "Rehab" on which she talked about her refusal to enter a rehabilitation clinic.
