Alicia Keys: Official Topic


Recommended Posts

Posted
Grammy-nominated Alicia Keys will add "talk show co-host" to her ever-growing resume. Keys will fill in for a vacationing Kelly Ripa on Live With Regis & Kelly on December 22. Not to be outdone, Regis himself will be filling in for the ailing Dick Clark on Clark's traditional New Year's Eve special.

i first posted that at first, i found this album very boring, nothing new to my ears, sounds quite the same as THE DIARY OF ALICIA KEYS, and the sound quality of the cd is very poor. but, i can't believe how much i am in love with this album now. i bought it on november 13, 2007! yes, together with celine's TC. and gave it a listen (since i am a huge fan of alicia as well). but the album never grew on me right away. but now, OMFG i cant even take the cd out of my player because i love the album sooooooo much!

 

anybody here have this album? i know that this is the album that outsold celine big time since their album was released at the same day. but we're not talking about the NUMBERS here, okay? :yes: i just wanna know if anybody here also have this album? or everybody here hates that album because of the huge sales? :shifty:

I really like lesson learned

Best album of the past couple of years, in my opinion! It's brilliance. I LOVE Superwoman and No One and Tell You Something. And each and every song! It's awesome. That woman is a genius!

This guy Dave on youtube who did the funny song "I've Got A Crush On Hillary", actually did his own version of the song "No One". It's more of a rock type of thing and I like it. He has a link for a free download of his version.

Once I heard the poor quality one I opte not to buy the album. Maybe I was wrong. I'll find to download it from somewhere and listen to it again.

The Diary of Alicia Keys is a solid effort. but As I Am is by far her best for me. :P

The picture of her is beautiful but the stuff in the background is weird. Not her best cover. I love Doesn't Mean Anything and Try Sleeping with a Broken Heart, i'm really excited for the new CD!

Sorry, but after Alicia trumped Celine the first week Taking Chances was released, I've been completely turned off to her. I personally think she's extremely overrated and her voice just hurts me.

The second single :sick: just sucks me :pinch:

 

I like the first one

I love the cover. It totally grasps what the title is. Freedom being depicted by the wings of birds flying free and the blue colour to show the element of being free as it is a suave colour. Love the concept.

 

I'm totally in love with her second single and I prefer it more than the first one as I feel it is a recycled "No One". But TSWABH is just :wub:

 

I hope the songs are great as always. She is one artist whose albums I buy and not download :giggle:

Y'all should listen to Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down.

 

I like the song with Jay-Z, but this is even better.
