Teary Eyed

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. "Teary Eyed" was the second single from rapper Missy Elliott's 2005 album The Cookbook and was released in September 2005 (see 2005 in music). The single saw a change in direction for Missy as the song is a hip hop ballad, with Missy singing throughout. Other sung singles include "Beep Me 911", "All N My Grill", and "One Minute Man".The music video for "Teary Eyed" takes place mainly in an insane asylum with Elliott in a straight jacket. In between cuts she is looking at an injured man on a hospital bed (the man she is singing about). As usual Elliot uses her sample technique to promote the song "Meltdown" by performing in the middle of the video. There are various shots of a car flipping and bursting into flames due to Elliott stabbing a hole in the front left tire out of her anger.
