No One by A. Keyes

This song is seriously growing on me. I think it's a nice change for her meaning it's slightly faster in pace and she's using some different sounds. Her performance at the VMA's rocked too. I thought it was one the better ones in the show next to Chris Brown's!

I think it grows on you with time. It might turn out to be one of her most popular songs.

I like the song but it reminds me so much of 'Where Is The Love' by the Black Eyed Peas...

I've seen the video recently and I didn't like it. What is she doing with that shoulder rocking dance, what is that? I can't follow the video's theme, what is it about? I am not too impressed with her vocals on it, her voice seems lower than normal speaking voice and she seems to be straining to get it up. I am not expecting her to hit opera high octaves but she sounds as if she's phoning in her vocals, BUT It is only one song, I'll wait for more.

What the hell? The songwriter should be embarrassed, that qualifies as too similar

That's what I thought when I first heard this...many songs sound similar..but this is just too damn close!!!

If Alicia wrote it...she got some 'splainin to do!

Don't like it. She can do better.

I agree with uncle grandpa it seems as though she is straining her vocals
to get a higher pitch and it just isn't a good fit with the record.
