"Stay" is the debut U.S. single and third international single from R&B artist Ne-Yo's debut album In My Own Words. The track features rapper Peedi Peedi.

The video for "Stay" premiered on BET and VH1 in September 2005, and on TRL in November 2005. The single failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 when it was released in the U.S. in 2005, however, the song proved to be a success on the R&B charts, peaking at #36, Ne-Yo's first single to do so as a solo artist. The single did manage to chart on BET's 106 & Park and peaked in the top 5. This is Ne-Yo's first most successful single on that chart. "Sexy Love" did not reach the countdown.

In the UK the video premiered on UK television in September 2006 on TV channel B4. The single was due to be released in the UK on October 2, 2006 but due to lack of airplay, the single was subsequently cancelled. ^[1]
