"Take This Ring" is an R&B–funk song written and produced by Rich Harrison for American singer-songwriter Toni Braxton's fifth studio album, Libra (2005). Released as the album's third and final single in December 2005, the song contains a sample from The Meters' 1969 song "Here Comes the Meter Man".
[edit] Chart performance
The single was a major commercial disappointment, with no proper physical release and no music video shot. Just like Braxton's two previous singles from Libra, "Take This Ring" was shadowed by the lack of promotion from her record company, Blackground Records, causing the single to fail to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Moreover, it debuted at number twenty-three on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles in November 2005 based on radio airplay only, peaking at number twelve three months later, but it did not manage to jump to the main chart.
