She looks pretty in the video.

I like the song and the video. I watched it like three times last night. And I tought she looked so fuckin'fine, more so now then she has ever been. Aspecially when she sung in the rain at the end. Damn..
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

cool I like Alicia she is cool with me. The video is ok it's nothing special. The song is nice, but i kinda wanted to hear something faster from her. I do think she is talented & is not trying to be someone else just to sale records.....as far as i am concerned she has proven that by her last 2 releases. Overall i am looking forward to her new album. She is still growing as an artist. cool

Both those songs are snoozefests. I gave her the benefit of the doubt. She's off my list now. She can't seem to step up and be...more.

Wow, I like the song she performed. What exactly do you want her to do, or what do you want to hear from her?

Something everyone else can't do. She's not living up to her hype.

LOL, interesting. I get where your going. I think she's quite good. She released SIAM at 21, TDOAK with If I Ain't Got You at 23, and now this. She isn't doing anything spectacular or "wowing" but she's at a nice pace for her age, atleast in my opinion.

If your looking for her to live up to her hype. I don't think that's going to happen, or atleast it will take a long while.

I just read something about Alicia from Ellen McIlwaine. Here's what she said about her:

"It's not the people, it's the business," she said about the music scene in the states. "It's the politics. We're lucky to have Alicia Keys, even if they water her down or spruce her up. Shut up and let her use her talent. It's a hard business." She sighed. "It's not about talent."


That's exactly what I feel they've been doing to Alicia. What we hear from her is a lot of compromise.

I'm familiar with Heartburn. That's the only fast song she's got and even that is... mellow. Then again, she's not much of a dancer (she doesn't have to dance) and I think her music may reflect her personality. I've never been impressed with her full body of work, just a few songs. Kinda got pissed at her version of HCUDCMA

I don't think this song should have been a first single, but hey. I didn't get the video. She looked pretty though

Compromise? I though Clive let her do what she wanted

nod Agreed. When it comes to talent these day, seeing you have to see and hear it to believe it due to the plethora of masking jobs in the studio by equipment, producers and PR Hype. And like PE says, Don't Believe The HYPE.

Superduper fan. I wish I was an employee.

I think Clive lets her do what she wants, but if she wants to be popular, I'm sure she has to compromise a little bit. Part of his job, I would think, would be to make sure she has appeal. Stolen Moments, and a rare track called Is It Insane isn't too appealing.

Her music lacks color. She's really mellow, like she stays in the white, gray, and black area.

They did what they had to do to move the project. If anything, she's suffered from it because people are still wanting to hear something spectacular from her. Whether you don't believe the hype, or believe it, at the end of the day she has a couple of great songs under her belt.
