This video is so dope. I love the concept; love someone as if it’s your last time seeing them.

Love it!!

Hotness.

Damn, she’s so beautiful!
I love this song by the way.

Awww, love the chemistry between she and Common, simply beautiful

I love the song & the video. Now let the rumors begin…..

YESS!!!!!

I can’t even be jealous that she’s in here with my man Common.
It’s a great video and they look so cute together…

r they fucken?

they look cute!

whats up with both of them trying to prove that they are legit actors?

Love it.
Alicia is such a natural beauty.

hold up if he dies in the hospital Saturday 1:45am why the hell is she walking through the hospital Friday 11:58pm????

alicia does have this natural beauty to her-

thank goodness she let go of those braids!

common did a terrible job at acting dead at the end…..u can see him swallow two times

beautiful song and beautiful video!

He doesnt die.. he lives.. thats why his heart is beating..

Oh ok i got it. (guess i shud have watched the whole dang the b4 i spoke)

classic !!!

beautiful in so many ways!! She is the truth hands down! I saw her live today and she simply amazing. beautiful voice! super talented! How can anyone hate on her?

BTW i dont think he dies at the end, I still hear a heart beat PLUS his face is not covered.

LMAO@ 24 i didnt even notice that. this is a pretty serious video but i cant stop laughing now
anyway alicia is stunningly beautiful and so is her voice as well
cant wait till i get the album

Alrighty…yeah, her and Common need to just go on ahead and hook up. Btw, Alicia looks beautiful in this video; less is always better!

Wow, Alicia Keys is gorgeous. Great song and great video.

And that, people, is what you call a MUSIC VIDEO.

NOW THATS A VIDEO! Other artists need to take notes!

WZUP wit her & Common????

Beautiful video great song maybe I’m just emotional today it made me cry.

aww i love this song and the video……. kind of makes me wanna fall in love

Beautiful video! Reminded me of the first time I saw Aaron Hall’s “I Miss You” video - saddest shit ever!!!

Her and Common have the best chemistry, better than her and Usher and her and Mos Def. They need to make it official because they make a cute ass couple. The video was making me sad bc I was also thinking about Kanye’s situation.

@38 me too that Aaron Hall video made me cry too I guess I’m a wuss lmao.

I don’t care for the song, but the video is nice.

this video gives me goosebumps. im feelin it, tha best video i’ve seen in a while

WOW!!!!!!! SIMPLY WOW!!!!!! ALICIA….WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the video. And she can have Common, i don’t think he’s cute. But this video is really nice and it really does make you think.

AK is making much better music than anyone out right now, but I still cant get into it for some reason. Its like, with all those skills, cant you come better? I just feel she could really be at the top. Ill get her new album and see though…

common and alicia have already made a movie…smokin’ aces…don’t worry only me and their families saw it….
OK, that was intense…
Not sure how I feel about the AK album this time out, but i give her credit for video casting….not that she has on lock !

That was Beautiful, Damn Alicia is Really doin it up! She looks Flawless! She really stepped her game up!

Yeah The Cd is Boring….

Yeah I saw this video earlier on MTV and wanted to say that it is absolutely beautiful;)

The video makes sense! She came with it!! Two thumbs up Ms. Keys!!

Everytime I hear that song it makes me cry, I can play it 5 times in a row and I cry each time. The video makes it even sadder. I’m such a sucker.

couldnt agree more.. that cd is not at all up to par.. it just dont seem like she was bringing it this time.. maybe im just closed minded.. but i thought it was gonna replace the connection i felt to the evolution of robin thicke of Frank by Amy Winehouse (kinda late i no).. SOMEBODY NEED TO BRING SOMETHING hot… cuz it is gettin real old…

#48 You think So.? I love her new album. I just got it. It’s so real and raw….None of the songs are bubblegum or meaningless

Already loved the song, the video made me love it even more. Great job on the video.

I absolutely love the song and the video! Alicia and Common are both beautiful people. The song is hot….it reminds me of Prince…I loooooves it, it gave me chills. I have to go cop the cd..I was gonna download it off itunes but I rather have the hard copy.

Ahsatar

Love the video and the song….i think they would make such a cute couple

Alicia is so damn beautiful. Common…ugh damn i’d fuck you. Excuse me…

54 Couldn’t sgree more. This song goes HARD, her vocals aren’t 100% but that girl can write a damn good song.

Lovin the video! She told a story with a song that was already beautiful. I love how they did it in reverse. It’s like watching it you think you know the ending of the story but you really don’t. By the way her CD is great from top to bottom. There is not one song that I would skip over, but there are quite a few that I would and have played twice!

Wow! I’m over here getting my silent cry on at work. The song is sooo simple yet sooo powerful. I gotta go get the album.

Wow, this is a really good video. Simple, but effective. The song is beautiful, it’s really grown on me.

That was beautiful somebody hand me a tissue

@ #23…yeah wtf happened?

Alicia looks absolutely gorgeous in this vid, she is naturally beautiful.
I love the whole video, it is one that actually makes you think, and
it captures the song’s emotions quite well.

I am glad to see a true artist, these days. The album is great!

I Love the video!! It is so beautiful!!, it makes me want to cry!!:-)
I love the concept!!, and A.Keys!!

Awesome Vid n Song, she is lookin so hawt lately, and I liked that Common was in this :), wonder if they gettin together or something..

LMAO @ Lady T….This vid took me 2 times to watch and my sis to explain it….You really have to catch those times….It’s going in reverse

i love it when she makes a video like this…a video with a point! beautiful and i just got back from buying the cd. bout to play it while i study!

I absolutely LOVE THIS SONG!!! And the video is great! This has to be my favorite Alicia Keys song, period, and as great a music artist as Alicia Keys is, that’s saying a lot!

I have a lump in my throat……I wasn’t gonna buy the album, even though i love ms. keys (negroes is broke these days), but i think ima have to cop it now

Look at my baby looking fine as hell….A. Keys and Common…those two would make the cutest couple!!!!! But I think its professional….I aint jumping to conclusions!

Love this song and video, but I can’t stand her voice. The only other song I liked on the album is No One, the rest of it is pretty boring.

The video and song are both beautiful. This right here makes me love A. Keys even more. And here and Common should just call it a day and get together.

This song is so beautiful. I really have to get her cd now.

This shit sucks I didn’t feel nothing very boring vide.. I’m so sick of this bitch

her and common are not together.s he has a man whom she loves and common may be with kerry washington

anyway she looks amazing in this vid. i still don’t really care for the song but it’s growing on me a little. she still bores me to death though (her writing) but she can compose music that’s for sure.

That shit was mad stupid trying to catch up with all the damn flashing time tables I’ll pass on this one

This is an AMAZING and I do mean AMAZIIINNNNNNNNNNNG, VIDEO !

Shit I was about to cry til I saw that he survived. Don’t tell nobody…

damn this song and video go real hard. i see u alicia. and i concur with the posts above - her and common would be goregous together but for now lets just watch the video. and the song is dope. i wasn’t feelin alicia on her music before too much…but these two singles are dope.

and im diggin her sexy new look.

Damn Dee, all that wasnt neccessary. You could have just said you didnt like the video and kept it moving. There always got to be that one damn person to ruin an entire post.

Alicia looked beautiful, but I couldnt get my mind together to understand what the hell happened to Common. Oh well, Im still on edge about Alicia. Something about her isnt sitting right with me at the moment, I still love her though.

Ok i’m useually a big hater but i luv the video she looks really beautiful

P.s just saying i still think she’s a lesbian, but let me shut the fuck up lol

Man, that was a powerful vid and yeah # 8 I agree. Just the opening scene itself made me think about Kanye and his family. Live and enjoy life in the moment !

Love the video! And the song for that matter:)

This girl is amazing! I didnt get her album yet but I will be copping it first thing thursday morning.

LOVE this song and the video is great!! Just got her album today and its amazing!!!!

OK I REALLY LIKE THE VIDEO BUT I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY DIDN’T HER AND COMMON KISS ON THE LIPS???????? I MEAN…. WTH…. IF SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HER BEING GAY THEN THIS WOULD OF BEEN THE PERFECT TIME TO PROVE IT….I’M REALLY STARTING TO THINK SHE GAY BECAUSE TONIGHT ON 106 & PARK SHE SAID HER AND COMMONE ARE WHATEVA PEOPLE WANT THEM TO BE, NO CORRECT ME IF I’M WRONG BUT ISEN’T HE DATING KERRY WASHINGTON??? IF HE IS CLEARLY ALICIA IS WAY MORE BEAUTIFUL THEN KERRY IS WHY WOULDN’T COMMON BE WITH ALICIA.. HUM IDK BECAUSE SHE GAY AND JUST MY THAT’S MY OPINION SO PEOPLE STFU

ALICIA GIRL IF YOU READ CONCRETELOOP I’M SORRY BUT I REALLY THINK YOUR A CLOSET LESBIAN I CAN SEE THROUGH ALL THAT BULLSHIT YOU AINT SLICK, I DON’T LIKE YOUR LIFESTYLE BUT I STILL LIKE YOUR MUSIC AND LOVE THE NEW CD

She looks beautiful as usual. I love this song. I think this is my favorite song by her. With all the stuff thats going on in the world this song is so true.

Look at Alicia trying to make a grown woman cry! Oh, that is what music is supposed to do make you FEEEEEEELLLLLLLLL something! I love the video, love the song and LOVVVVVVEEE the CD. Now that I’ve said that allow me to go and listen to As I Am one more time before bed!

saw this on mtv.

dammit. half my comment got erased.

i saw it on mtv. it’s a beautiful song… i love it. i love her. i love the fact that common is in it =] …and i’m SOOO getting the album this week!

the song & video made me tear up but i mean no offense… i love common but damn they shouldve chose another man to play her boo in this video just for the fact i know common really aint dead and LOL him @ the end swallowin… but yeah. cool.

@ 87 aw please your a hater

anyway what a beautiful video it very sad though and it made me think about Kanye and his whole sitchuation with his mother/ and me and my boyfriend….this is truly a classic song and i just bought the cd actually 2 and the whole is hot from the intro to the bonus track

She’s Pretty But aint That Chick a tainted lesbian ??????? Why Didn’t She Just Put A Women In The Video atleast She would of been keepin it real With Herself she knows she would never touch a guy in a sexual way, when i met her last year she was boyish as all hell and ima dude and noticed that masculine shit

OK HAD TO COME BACK WF IS UP WITH TRAVELING ALL THROUGHT THE VIDEO??

i love the song & video..

it’s kind of a creepy foreshadowing of Kanye’s situation

Why is everyone saying Common’s dead at the end? Pay attention, people! If he were dead he’d be flatlining, but the heart monitor is beeping…meaning he’s ALIVE.

Anyways…I’m loving this video and song. The album is fire to say the least!

The video makes me like the song even more! Good job A. Keys

The video is good. I like it. I especially like the way it shows you the time frames and u never know if a bad moment is going to be your last time seeing that person so cherish every minute you have with them.

I really enjoyed the direction they took that video

too bad she has a man because they would be the most beautiful couple.
this is a beautiful video, i love the song.
i have to get her album
she is an amazing artist.

Black Star Power.. Wow I love Love Alica Keys!

Now that’s what I’m talking about! This video is BEAUTIFUL she looks even MORE beautiful! Truly ONE OF 2-3 SONGS on the album that I actually like. I wish the rest of the album had poignant material like this one. And this video is a million times better than that horrible No One. It seems as though the best songs on the album were the ones where she wasn’t TRYING too damn hard. This is why I am pissed at Alicia for making the rest of the album WACK because she got some beautiful music like this one only to fukk it up with GIMMICKY material.

This is the best video i seen all year it makes me love the song MORE!!

I’m sorry, I like the video concept, but I don’t think it goes with the song. I think a more romantic concept instead of a love/but then a lover almost dies theme. Like, Alicia and Common just seen being with each other throughout the whole video without him getting hurt would have been just fine. It’s just my opinion.

This video was really nice. I was just sayin the other day how it seems people dont make videos with a concept anymore. They just dance from scene to scene. But this video tells a stary and its beautiful.

Common is my man alicia needs to keep her hands off him, damn they do make a decent looking couple!

like the song but it would sound better if her vocals were more in tune, im nt impressed with the singing on this track and noone.

i like alicia but i find that she is an artist who releases great singles but not great albums IMO. mayb As I Am is better?

I loved the video and folks… COMMON DID NOT DIE! Alicia is going to have a fantastic time on the Billboard Charts!

Lol, haterz get back.

Loving the concept…the video basically sold me on the song!!

Um, yeah, about channeling Prince, I was watching Purple Rain recently and there is a scene where he is alone in his dressing room and he plays a tape of a song composed by two if his band members who just quit and this song is sounds like the 80’s version of Alicia’s song… Check it out, it’s hella short like 15sec.

Benjamin, its harsh reality sometime….but its reality.

WOW! I’m in love with the vid as much as the song. Alicia is amazing & beautiful!

What a mature and beautiful video. The concept was well thought out and executed. Lovin’ It

great video! i’m getting her album tomorrow

now i love the song more and more…

he shouldve died in the end, that would’ve been hotter!

but the video is hotness.

she looks beautiful, but theres something really gay about alicia, like she could lick up on a chick any second.

VERY NICE VIDEO I THINK HER AND COMMON ARE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER

SHE is beautiful.
HE is beautiful.
THE VIDEO is beautiful.
THE SONG is beautiful.
THE ALBUM is wonderful.

VIDEO WAS GUD .. SONG WAS OK IT WASNT GROUND BREAKING ……

WOW!

This is a really nice song

ALSO I THINK THE VIDEO WAS A LITTLE TO DEEP FOR THE SONG … ITS JUST A OPINON IM NOT HATING !!!

love the song…the video is really good, just kinda depressing. Brings back memories of my bro when he died in a hospital two years ago. Also makes me think of Kanye

Great video. Great concept, Great message. I love them two together. Alicia is soooo beautiful!

Ohhh have y’all peeped ALICIA’s MAMA playing at the beginning of the video? OFF THE CHAIN!! LOL…Lemme watch the rest.

A Keys is beautiful. Her and Common would make a cute couple.

I saw Krucial too!! The fam was here!!!!!! DOPE DOPE DOPE ASS video, good acting, good message, the chemistry between Common and Alicia is crazy, damn damn damn!! I love this song even more now.

87.Dark Skinned diamond

OK I REALLY LIKE THE VIDEO BUT I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY DIDN’T HER AND COMMON KISS ON THE LIPS???????? I MEAN…. WTH…. IF SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HER BEING GAY THEN THIS WOULD OF BEEN THE PERFECT TIME TO PROVE IT….I’M REALLY STARTING TO THINK SHE GAY

>>>>>> She has a man and is faithful, that’s why, and that’s why she didn’t kiss Usher either in “My Boo” or Mosdef in “U don’t know my name”. Kissing Common wouldn’t prove anything either. There are tons of gay actors and actresses who kiss the opposite sex, so it doesn’t matter what she does, if people have already made up their minds, kissing a man on TV won’t change anything. Had she don’t it, people would say “she doesn’t look comfortable”, “she tries too hard” and so on.

I like the song/video ;]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! This made me tear up…the video really makes u think…LIVE EACH DAY LIKE IT’S YOUR LAST!!!!

ALL I CAN SAY IS I LOVE IT!!! The song is beautiful!!

Love this video!!!

her and common must be pretty tight for there to be these constant collabos…

People up here breaking down the video it is not that serious! I finally see common chest thank you alicia

hater dee are you alright hon?

I love the video and the song. I saw her earlier on 106 and she looked so pretty. Her and Terrence would make better hosts than him and Roci just my opinion.

Ya’ll can suck on the back of her panty pad! She done fucked up the game with this cd! Teenage Love affair and Lesseon Learned will be the hits!

that was so beautiful! one of the best vids ive seen in a min…and alicia is stunning.

her and common compliment e/o nicely too

luv tha video…..its sooo beautiful, makes u think!

Nice video and the song is dope. I agree, I’ve always thought they make a nice couple.

this video is wonderful

I can dig it

pure beauty
that was music art definition and it had depth
something we sometime overlook
absolutely stunning
almost teary eyed towards the middle

I never thought A. Keys was gay. I don’t know why people would think that, she came off a little hard but still. It’s hard to tell is a female is gay unless she is really butch or she steals my girl. Then like Tariq Nasheed said, I’ma knock the femininity back into her.

I concur w/ #55 this song does have a major Prince appeal to it, one can always tell who an artist is influenced by….I LOVE the song and the video, yet I can wait on her CD. She got me calling my guy and tellin’ him to stop the bullshit and love me like……damn that song speaks to my soul right now!!! Anyway, in my opinion she never ‘comes with it on a disk”, but her lead off singles and the ones that she showcase off the album at best are the better songs. That’s in my opinion!!

alicias man krucial is in the video at 3:52 am i the only one who noticed

J. Lewis you are a fool for that one!!! On a serious note, when Alicia first hit the scene she came her to Chicago and performed at the infamous E2 Nightclub along with Jimmy Cozier (damn that was a long time ago) and when she walked on stage my first impression was “she’s a handsome byotch” LOL!!! Seriously she walked so hard in those boots that I knew she was dude. Next, I thought maybe she was a super tom-boy because I too was one before I discovered the “D”….lol!! Over time I have noticed that they have sent her to some classes for femininity!! Which is great….keep doing you Ms. Keys!!!

love this video, love this song, common is so damn fine. the song itself actually reminds me of old skool Prince.

She’s crankin out the vids isn’t she? She’s a pretty good actress. I just saw Smokin Aces. Also, her new MTV commercials are pretty funny.

Maybe Common is her secret boyfriend. I must abmit they do make a cute couple. She said Crucial is not her man just her manager, but she does have one…so maybe the pieces of the puzzle are coming together. AHA!!!

yeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a video with a REAL concept!
very beautifully done!
yay!

hmmmm…..hate, hate, haters are amongst us. either some ppl really just like to hate or they can’t grasp concepts that aren’t as easy as crank that soulja boy.

omg that was fxckin beautiful! she looked soo pretty. aww i love it u go head girl !

‘as i am’ is argubly her best album to date for so many reasons, and this song and video adds on to why it is.

Damn, she’s good! The second part of the song is quite soulful.

Luvin the video… had to hold back tears…. the song, eh… not so much. Why is she sounding like Ashanti trynna sound like Prince? Her voice is much too powerful to be singing so dag on flat

Great video.Its why you should say i love you everyday..ya never know.

The concept for the video is nice, I love it. Common didn’t die at the end, if you notice the heart monitor showed activity. No 24, that’s why is swallowed twice at the end.

The video is HOT!!! I liked it alot it makes you think CHERISH that person you love you never know.

I told y’all Alicia’s album is on Fyaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Hot song. Lesson learn is one of my favorites.

Haven’t watched the video, but I just have to say that Alisha’s cd is HOTTTT! I’ve had it on repeat in my car and at work since I got it yesterday. In my opinion this is her best cd yet. If you don’t have it go get it!!

I like this new song by Keys but it sounds a lot like Diamonds and Pearls by Prince…beautiful video…

Alicia Keys and Common look really good together. I wish they would get it over and make their relationship public. Alicia definitely came hard this time around. Love the song and video. I appreciate her so much cause she is original and is famed for her talent. She doesn’t have to be half naked in pictures and videos to be recognized. Get that money girl!

Common is officially the Sexiest Man In Hip Hop - there NO DOUBT IN MY MIND! This dude is soooooooooooo official!

I love the video! Very heartwrenching and simple message with a lovely delivery from Ms. Keys!

That was a really good video. She always puts out videos that are more meaningful, even when she in a feel good video where she’s just on the block! Her and Common should do a studio album together…I think that’d be a hot album

classic beautiful video…..reminds us not to take love for granted. no one is promised tomorrow

RIP Dr. West

I had to get on here so that I can tell #51 Elane Elle I cry EVERY time I hear the song!!!! When I am in the car with my girlfriends, I have to put my sunglasses on so they don’t see me tearing up!!!! LOVE THIS SONG! AND LOVE THE ALBUM. WENT TO TARGET TO GET YESTERDAY AND IT WAS SOLD OUT AT LUNCH. HAD TO DRIVE TO ANOTHER LOCATION

PEOPLE READ THE THANK YOU’S IN THE ALBUM COVER, ALICIA’S MAN IS JEFF SINCE LIKE FOREVER, SH SAID IT A LONG TIME AGO AND HE IS IN THE ALBUM THAK YOU’S.

I love the video YESSS, but I’m really loving the chemistry between her & Common (even though they are friends) it’s just there sorry, Oh and he’s fine as all out doors AWWWW.

But overrall I’m loving the video….

Two beautiful people in a beautiful video… Very good look! I would love to see them as a couple in real life, wouldn’t you?

A Keys has done it again she never disappoints contrar to some other artists her work is real which is great and from the heart keep doing tha damn thang

I’m not trying to be disrespectful,but that my Bitch right there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!She always goes hard. Love the video,she looks so damn Gorgeous,and she’s not overdone,the video and the song are simple and effortless in bringing forth emotions. I LOVE it and I LOVE her,and Common is a sexy beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent! I love a music video that has a great storyline, and this is definitely it.

I’m listening to the album right now, and I can honestly say that I am not disappointed.

I love it the video and song. I saw her perfom it yesterday on Good Morning America.

Totol rip off of Toni Braxton, UNBREAK MY HEART

Damn,

i was wondering how she can top the two first albums without becoming predictable and NO, ALICIA IS SO TALENTED I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT!!
AND YES SHE IS SO NATURAL , SHE IS BEAUTIFUL BUT THAT IS NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT SHE ALWAYS DELIVERS SOMETHING PROFOUND AND WORTHY. To all the so called stars, take notes!!!

The song and video are AMAZING!!!! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!

Alicia looks gorgeous in this video! I love that she is really embracing this new more feminine image!

I never think Common was good looking but now i don;t know he is kinda cute and SO TALENTED ALSO

I absolutely, positively love this song. And the video….WOW! What an outstanding concept. AK, I just have one word for you….excellent!!! I see you coming back strong. Keep doing your thing and you will continue to have my love and support. And the support of all your fans.

That song is dope! Love the words and everything…..The video is so beautiful. I would have been crying at work if he didn’t survive!

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG. WATCHING THE VIDEO HAD MY ALMOST IN TEARS. ALICIA IS SO TALENTED AND HUMBLE. I LOVE THIS GIRL. LOVING THE CD TOO.

* ALMOST HAD ME IN TEARS

She looks flawless in the video. I love it. I can’t wait for her to have a breakout role because she is really a good actress.

All I can say is DAMN! I didn’t like the song when I first heard it on the radio but she made a real video that actually makes you feel the song even more. And the fact that she has Common in it makes it even better. I was thinking the same thing that they would make a cute couple.

I’m loving this video… Sitting at my desk & got tearied eyed. Li-Li definitely did her thing on this one!!! Her album is GREAT!!! Thanks for the upload b/c I hadn’t caught it on tv yet…

cute video, but this concept has already been done by toni braxton(a way better version)’s “unbreak my heart”

Nice video….very touching…..loving the words to the song

That video was great it made me almost want to cry. Took me back to those Aaron Hall days.

The video fits the song perfectly…….. Now this is the song I could have on repeat…….
Now I am looking to hear more from Ms Keys :o)!

as i watch the video all i can think about is Kanye West losing his mother, damn, everyday you wake up is a blessing.

That was beautiful.

awwww, she looks beautiful. good job

Her and Paula Patton look just alike…i don’t care what anybody say.

I LOVE the album. I really enjoy all her albums they always have something to say better than the little girl lyrics we get from miss beyonce. I’m not hating she can entertain wish GOD gave a fraction of the talent to Miss Kelly! Luv ya Kel…… well I have this album n I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s time to support REAL music We have to let these artists no we will not BUY B*&^&&**!!!!! GAss prices are too high and GA is in a drought…..

This video is great i think AK is so pretty. Common looks good to they will make a cute couple if they were together!!! i have to go get this cd for sure!!!!!

I like the new video and I couldn’t take my eyes away when they first showed it yesterday on trl and then on bet…jessica alba look like crap stand next to alicia keys. I have her album and “Looks good to me” is one of my favorites already. She’s the hottest female artist out there period…She classy doesn’t have to run around with those sleazy ass rappers to create press (Common is a classy rapper) I don’t know what else to say she’s my favorite for a reason…She loves herself and looks better than most women (Adriana Lima is the only female who has got her in the looks department and they look alike) and she doesn’t have to slut herself out and I’m sure all the hoodrats hate on her and guys who don’t stand a chance… but my word.

This is truly a beautiful song and AMAZING/ heart felt video..it holds soo much truth!!.. it represents all the beautiful aspects of Alicia as an artist.. she is truly bringing that “feel good” music back to R&B with this album..which by the way is GREAT.. another gr8 song is “Tell You Something” as well as “The Thing About Love”.. “Wreckless Love”.. “Superwoman”..and “I Need You”..as well as “Lesson Learned” my top favs.. the album is just gr8.. Alicia is just a flawless d0pe chick.. u gotta love her..nd the best part is there is never any controversy affiliated with her..

This Song/Video Is So Dred, I Love These 2 Together.. Too Bad She’s Take’n. Her Album Will Do Very Well.

its better while watching the video, i aint in luv so cant really relate but its cool

#146…I saw that too. She even had him in the video for “No One,” but a lot people didn’t notice. I do think her and Common should do another movie together. They had a lot of chemistry in Smoking Aces.
#150 I think she tries to say that to the press to keep them from coming in between their relationship. We all see what usually happens when you become the cover of a magazine type couple.

I love the fact that she has never resorted to doing over the top things to be a respected artist :).

The song was pretty average but the video was brilliant!

@Lina I agree the songs you listed they stood out to me as well but “superwoman” make me think too much I have to listen again…I love John Mayer also “lesson learned” lyrics really stood out before the rest of the song came together for me but I don’t know why “Looks good to me” just does something for me it has another song from the old school in it also but I love it.

And oh yeah #160….Lesson Learned is THAT song! I know just about everyone can relate to it.

sounds like prince wrote the song and she stole it from him…… naa its beautiful i will go buy this cd now

hey gurl you are doin ur thing and that is so great for what you are doin for the people out there love ya gurl keepthe good work up alicia keys

I LOVE THIS SONG AND VIDEO!!!!!!

Yes, this is a great heart-wrenching video. Man, I can’t even watch it again because it’s so sad. Nonetheless, she did her thing, and she was so right to put Common in the video.

As for her album, I have to admit that, initially, when I heard “No One”, I wasn’t expecting anything good from this album. I mean, while a good amount of people love the song, I really don’t think that it sounds good, and it’s too simple for my taste. However, there are so many other songs on this album that are absolutely beautiful.

To me, the best tracks are:

* Wreckless Love (should definitely be the next single)

*Tell You Something (if Like You’ll Never See Me Again made you cry, this song will definitely make you bawl. It is really gorgeous and touching)

* I Need You (also needs to be a single)

*Teenage Love Affair (the cutest song I’ve heard in a while. I really like it.)

* Sure Looks Good To Me (when I heard the beginning of it, I didn’t like it because I didn’t like the vocals, but after really listening to the whole thing, I really, really love this song. It is so empowering, and the breakdown in the middle of the song is very good. Powerful, intense, poignant lyrics)

* Like You’ll Never See Me Again (I instantly fell in love with this song. It’s sexy, sensual, sincere and touching)

* Where Do We Go From Here (Again, in the beginning, the vocals, I didn’t care for, but the song itself is really good and catchy. I love the production of this song, the most.)

* Superwoman (while this one isn’t my absolute favorite, I think that it’s one of those great pick-me-up type of songs. It’s also empowering and the beat is really nice.)

So, those are my picks. I think that this album is very good. It far exceeded my expectations. And while a few of you say that AK is boring and that you are not moved by this album, I think that you would just have to be in a certain place in your life for these songs to touch you.

If you are kind of closed off, then, no, these songs will not do anything for you. But, if you have experienced loved gained or love lost, or if you have come to the realization that it’s time for you to get your own self together, or if you have already gotten yourself on track, then “As I Am” is the album for you.

You will simply love it.

This video is just great! It had me on the edge of my seat like what is gonna happen then Commons fine ass took a breath so sweat when she kisses his hand in the end like he is precious to her. Alicia looking fly and natural she set her CD up for success. Then I got the CD at Target and I’m telling you if you don’t have it you are truly missing out 1-14 goes hard! My favorites right now (it has changed a lot over the past day) Tell You Something (nanas reprise) just beautiful Sure Looks Good To Me ( I’m about to “risk it all freedom to fall” I was contemplating going for a promotion at work and it sure looks good to me to at least try at this point. Lesson Learned will be performed at the grammys in 09 she and John Mayer did a great collaboration! Teenage Love Affair made me want to call my old sweetheart just to say hi! I could go on and on.

I like A. Keys…however it’s something about her music that’s slightly boring. It’s like the songs on her album are cool but they all start to sound alike after awhile. ‘Like You’ll Never See Me Again’ would stand out more if ‘I Need You’ , ‘Thing About Love’ and ‘Wreckless Love’ wasn’t on there.

I am a bigger fan of uptempo A. Keys music so in that way I am bias. However, ‘Sure Looks Good To Me’ and ‘Prelude To A Kiss’ are my favorite songs on the album : )

I agree with LisaLisa, when she said Keys has more talent then what her records show.

what eva A. Keys touches is gold period. Other female singers out there should be watching her career wit a pen and paper in hand

I love me some Alicia Keys! That girl can act her socks off SHIT! Nobody mentioned her acting skills, they’re seriously off the chain. Wow! I was blown away, I love that she can act so good because it just makes the video that much better :]

There’s so many mixed reviews about the album! I don’t know if I should buy it or not? Maybe I’ll download a few tracks then eventually buy the album when it’s like half price or something lol.

ANYWAY…you better get it girl! I’m loving the new, mature, grown and sexy Alicia! It’s hot

Even thought Alicia puts out good singles on the radio, I have never been a fan ( something about her bothers me). But I think I might actually buy her album I love her two new songs!

Alicia keys will probably be on the top soon.
Based on all your comments, i will run after work today get mine (yesterday too busy). But do not worry Alicia, you can count on me to listen to your music since you always have something to tell at least that touches me!!
Is there any hidden song lol??

bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbeauuutiful love the idea reall creatuve and not the simple sdtuff

Wow!!! This is honestly the best music video I have seen in a long time. Artists simply don’t make videos like this anymore. It does the song so much justice! It is simple and to the point. Alicia and Common look great together. Love them.

I have to give it AK, She is soooooo genuine and sincere with her music, no gimmicks, no ass bouncin, no chest bouncin, no coochie poppin,just good music! I hope she goes far with her career!!!!

ABSOLUTELY beautiful video and song. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! Alicia and Common both looked gorgeous in the video and they make great music!

WELL I GUESS I’LL HANE 2 BE THE BIGGER PERSON CUZ FIRST OF ALL COMMON IS MY MAN EVERY1 KNOWS THAT. BUT ALICIA IS MY 2ND FAV ARTIST. IM SLOWLY ACCEPTIN THE FACT THEY MAKE A CUTE COUPLE. IF I WASNT FEELING THIS VIDEO AS MUCH AS I AM THEN THERE’D BE A PROBLEM.

Great video! No, the concept isn’t original, but hardly anything is. The song is still mediocre — with the exception of “Diary” I never put AK songs on repeat. However, the video may sell this one. Very good look and very well done.

She should have had a woman play Common’s part, to make it more believable. Every one and they momma know she gay. I don’t know why she don’t just come out the closet.

I read that she wants to turn Beyonce out, oops, I mean work with Beyonce.

83. 87. 94. 221.

I Co-sing wit all yall alicia know she a lesbian idk why people keep saying she wit kerry crucial because on allhiphop.com he said he’s like her big brother and they are NOT together and common is fucking Kerry washington i bet he wants to get at alicia but alicia aint feeling him like that because she likes women if you don’t believe me then go to the alicia keys official fan club site watch her studio episodes cuz she sure looks like a stud and sounds like a stud and she curses like crazy

One more thing i got the album and it’s hot bt she’s still gay

im trying to understand why its anyones business what that girl does in her personal life. she’s doing music. not putting her private life on display.

Damn At All The People That Cryed Yall Some Fake emotionl Pussys, The Video Wasen’t That Damn Good And the song is a straight up dyke track

I COULD WATCH THE VIDEO OVER OVER AND OVER AGAIN CUZ SHE LOOKIN MAD GOOD YO ON THE REAL IDK IF SHE’S GAY OR NOT IF SHE IS THEM LESBIANS BITCHES R LUCKY TO HAVE SUCH A DIME PIECE LIKE HER ON THERE TEAM…IF SHE NOT THE HER BITCH ASS MAN BETTER BE KEEPIN HER HAPPY CUZ IF HE’S NOT THEN I’M TAKIN HER

I COULD WATCH THE VIDEO OVER OVER AND OVER AGAIN CUZ SHE LOOKIN MAD GOOD YO ON THE REAL IDK IF SHE’S GAY OR NOT IF SHE IS THEM LESBIANS BITCHES R LUCKY TO HAVE SUCH A DIME PIECE LIKE HER ON THERE TEAM…IF SHE NOT THE HER BITCH ASS MAN BETTER BE KEEPIN HER HAPPY CUZ IF HE’S NOT THEN I’M TAKIN HER!!!!!

@ Ashley

Girl you know after you become famous that personal life stuff is out of the question
everybody is all up in every celebrites bizness…including alicia’s

The video was nice. I honestly think Alica is a lesbian but that’s neither here nor there. I would appreciate it if everyone would stop swagger jacking Prince, can he live? Even though I like a few of her songs lets not get overboard . She’s not the best vocalist, so chill with that BS.

Loved it!!! The whole concept the simplicity, everything! She looked beautiful and they looked good together. The song is nice too and I love her voice. Do ya thang A.Keys!!!

CTFU @ #230 (SEXYDIVA) — you are so right to ask if Prince can live, LOL! I swear that little genius must spin every time somebody else jacks his swagger. I asked that question the first time this song was posted on CL. Forever imitated, never duplicated. Can he live? Can he get paid off all this jackin’? LOL.

This song is sooo beautiful and the video is amazing.. I bought her CD yesterday and I love it.. She did it again…

How can any1 despise??? she beautIful person,with a unique sound,i love the concept of the video..my two very favourite artists… ”Live and love everybody as its your last day”.God bless kanye and his family…

BY THE WAY WHEN IS HER ALBUM OUT IN THE UK ?? X

To all the people saying she’s gay WHY DOES IT MATTER it’s no ones business if she is which I really doubt (I think she might be bi but who isn’t that’s hot) she makes great music, puts out video kids can watch without seeing an ass on the screen, and I like her. I refuse to believe someone this beautiful is gay. My friend use to be a tomboy when she was young and she’s good looking and ppl wanted to know was she gay… because most of them wanted her guys and girls… I never cared and she did like girls as well as guys but it was her business..my point most of you want her guys and girls and I don’t blame you but don’t hate she don’t want Beyonce worn out ass after she let Jayz ran through her all these years “shes tainted”. Team Alicia

The video is simplistic and absolutely dope……..the concept and the song so poignant and sad because it makes me think of Kanye’s Moms and AAliyah, just that life is WAY TOO SHORT and if u love someone love them like it is the last time you will ever see them or hear their voice. Common and Alicia Keys do have good chemistry but i’m pretty sure it is a platonic relationship, she has a boyfriend. I am an A keys fan but IMO I think Diary is a better album, maybe As I Am has to grow on me some more.

This woman is crazzzzzyyyyyy talented!

BEAUTIFUL is all I can say and need to say.

@#226

Please define the term “dyke track”.

Just ignorant for no reason.

amazing video. didn’t know i could actually like this song more…..but now, i do. FINALLY…..a video that truly enhances the song.

Oh shit! Krucial is in the video at 3:52. Dammit. That so ruined the chance of her Common actually getting together if her man is all up in the vid. Well at least we know Alicia is a faithful and committed chick.

BTW I agree that this video definitely almost made a grown woman cry. Gosh I love her!

#168 Dee

That’s not her boyfriend lol

That’s her manager !! They’ve been working together since day 1 for her, and his BROTHER was actually working with her BEFORE Jeff.

—-

BY THE WAY !

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS VIDEO NO DOUBT !

I had a feeling it was gonna be like this but it STILL exceeded my expectations, like always lol

I have all her albums include her latest one & yes I DO think this is her best album yet.

I LOVE ALL HER SONGS

and those comments saying that’s she gay or whatever, she’s not, just leave it alone.

Man, I am completely broken. That video really made me think(tears) Live each day like it is your last

PEOPLE READ THE THANK YOU’S IN THE ALBUM COVER, ALICIA’S MAN IS JEFF SINCE LIKE FOREVER, SH SAID IT A LONG TIME AGO AND HE IS IN THE ALBUM THAK YOU’S.

Girl; stop lying. Her man is Krucial. What fucking Album insert are you reading? Now go read it again and apologize. The Cd is nice the video is hot. And yall need to stop worrying about who she is fucking! Do your think A.Keys. You have more fans than haters baby!!!

I like this alot! Her and common would make a cute couple:-)

FLAWLESS.

If she gay she gay. Why are we even dwelling on something so stupid like that. Her talent is the shit. F**k what she prefers and what not. Let her do her thing.

wow! amazing video and song she is just natural she don’t even have 2 try
can’t believe i have anither week 2 wait b4 i can officially buy the album.

#146, I noticed that too. Overall, it was a beautiful video, the song is very beautiful as well. Alicia looked great and if she wasn’t with Kerry a.k.a. Crucial Keys, I think that her and Common would make a great couple.

BEAUTIFUL SONG! NICE VIDEO EXCEPT I DIDN’T NEED TO SEE THE BLOOD ON COMMON.

Very nice! I went to 2 stores here in Atlanta yesterday & her CD was sold out.

i love alicia her and ciara are def my fav female artists out right now and both doing there thing

Damn. That video is deep. I sat there looking @ the black screen for like 5 extra seconds. lol Luvs that it has an actual story line.

SHE TOTALLY RIPPED OFF PRINCE’S “DIAMONDS AND PEARLS”, BUT I LIKE THIS.

I WONDER WHAT PRINCE THINKS? HE DOESN’T TAKE KINDLY TO PLAGARISM!!!

I Fuckin Agree With 226. That is A DYKE Track

i wish this bitch would let us know her sexual preference

damn diz video was hot!!! i loved it and i love the song.

alicia keys i love yooh tell me your hair product how to get long hair because i love your hair

I keep waiting for her to make a good album, or write a song that doesn’t have cliched, Hallmark inspired lyrics. If you people think this is good music, I feel sorry for you. Someday she might grow as an artist and make something that lives up to the hype, but right now I am consistently disappointed in her music. The video is nice though.

A black video with shelves full of books, A black woman who’s sexy and intelligent ( love her using lens to go over the photos). A black man who is sexy, exciting, in love with one woman and not a baller or shot up.

Whoooaaa.Hollywood take note. We don’t necessarily need something new, just follow Ms. Keyes and give us something true.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG AND I LOVE THE VIDEO. IT HAS A LOT OF PASSION ON A. KEYS’ PART. I WENT AND PURCHASED HER CD YESTERDAY (IT WAS ALMOST SOLD OUT) AND I MUST SAY THAT ITS REALLY, REALLY GOOD! ITS SOLID. SHE IS SUCH A SOULFUL TALENTED ARTIST. SHE MIXED IT UP THIS TIME AND PUT A TWIST OF HIP-HOP, JAZZ, AND EVEN ROCK STYLE IN SOME SONGS AND I WAS FEELIN’ EVERY MOMENT. A TRUE LEGEND IN THE MAKING

it reminds me of them slow prince joints from back in the day and thats a GREAT thing

I want alicia to be my wife. Shes wifey status smart, incredibly beautiful, talented

I cried when I saw this video maybe its me but it has a element of strong emotion that she pours into the story and the song is sooo true. Instead of fighting over stupid shit…we may never know when we will see or touch or kiss the person that we love again so live every moment like its ur last time. I admire Alicia Keys for her talent and because she IS a very pretty woman who doesn’t try to sell out on looks. She stays classy and remains focused on her music and her talents. Clive Davis knew what he was doing when he signed her

OMG I got the album and its str8 up bananas!!!!! My joints r wreckless love, like you’ll never see me again, teenage love affair, and lesson learned.

Love the song and the video is absolutely amazing! Alicia is lookin’ so beautiful I can’t even comprehend it, unbelievable! And the story of the video is great, but don’t even joke about my boo Common dying!LOL

the vid was ok …not hating or anything but i have seen better!
the two look to have a connection ..maybe common wants what he really can’t have … which is her …but since between these two videos ..they surely look believable .. Common is a great artist,but a little whorish he gets off being able to act with all the beauties

*wiping my eyes* … that was beautiful! I love the video. Like someone said before, it make you think about life in general. Cherish what you have cause you’ll never know when it will be gone.

beautiful! I was definitely about 2 cry tho…
GO ALICIA…GO COMMON!

COME ON PEOPLE…AS MUCH AS WE LIVE OUR LIVES, Y CAN’T AK(ALICIA KEYS) LIVES HER LIFE. STOP BEING HATERS…B/C YALL R THE ONES DAT WANT HER~~~IF U HAD A CHOICE, U THE ONES WITH ALL THE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS ABOUT ALICIA KEYS(AK) YALL WOULD GO 4 IT!!! SHE CAN’T HELP IF SHE’S GEORGEOUS..GOD GAVE HER THAT CONCEPT…SHE’S A 20/MORE!! KEEP UP DA GOOD WORK AK U GET UR’S GURL…I LOVED U FROM DAY1

This is a beautiful song. It’s just in time too. It’s a wonderful song for the couples in love, and makes the mood just right for the holidays! I know i thought of the special person in my life when i first heard the song, and it made me love him even more! She’s definetly representing for her homestate and mine too, New York.

I am i love wit this song. This is for me and my man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alicia is next Aretha,Whitney,Mariah… She will last in the next decades as an amazing song writer and artist!!! She is pop, rap, and soul. This and many others of her songs will always touch people in ways other artist can only aspirer too.

Dear Alicia I am 52 years old you have said something in your song that I have wanted young people to realize for so long. Love every day, love hard and strong.
God Bless You, God Bless You, Thank God for giving you an old soul.

so touching and real
