"Seven Whole Days" is a song performed by American singer Toni Braxton. It serves as the third single from her self-titled debut album (1993). It was released on October 8, 1993 by LaFace and Arista Records. Written and produced by Kenneth Edmonds, Antonio Reid and Daryl Simmons, the track describes a romance that was fading. As the single was not commercially released in the United States, it was ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, and only managed to chart on the Hot 100 Airplay at number forty-eight in early March 1994. Nevertheless, it successfully topped the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay in late January 1994.

"Seven Whole Days" is featured on The Essential Toni Braxton and Playlist: The Very Best of Toni Braxton.[1][2]

Critical reception

In his review of Toni Braxton, John Martinucci from the Gavin Report found that Braxton "creates steamy sensuality" with "Seven Whole Days".[3] Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian noted the singer's "a boys-beware growl" on the "easy-going" track.[4] Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote that it "could melt even the North Pole."[5] Ralph Tee from Music Week's RM Dance Update stated that it is "the closest Toni gets to Anita Baker territory vocally."[6] Mike Joyce from The Washington Post felt the song "have a depth".[7]

Music video

The official music video for "Seven Whole Days" was shot while Braxton was on tour with her four sisters Traci, Towanda, Trina and Tamar featured as background singers. It was released in 1993 and directed by Lionel C. Martin.[8] The video was later released on Braxton's VEVO channel on October 25, 2009, and is in both color and black and white. It had generated more than 29 million views as of January 2025.[9]
