♫ Alicia Keys – Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart
Off the heels of the success of her featuring on “Empire State of Mind,” and the release of her first single, “Doesn’t Mean Anything,” Alicia Keys drops her second single, “Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart.”
The new single comes from Keys’ forthcoming album, Elements of Freedom and was produced by Jeff Bashker. The album is set to hit stores December 15th.


Alicia, I’m sure ur man’s ex (thanks 2 u) “WIFE” is sleeping with a broken heart……….vows don’t mean nothing anymore………smh……….what about the kids? anyone worried about their little broken hearts? smh
So boring…Alicia has definately fallen off. I will not be buying her cd because she is boring. She left her R & B roots to be be more mainstream and it is not working…
This song is a killer! I missed Alicia singing over a hard beat.
Way better than her first single. Would you people stop bringing that “homewrecker” stuff into every single Alicia Keys post? Are you guys bitter or something?
Doesn’t Mean Anything didn’t make me want to cop the album. This makes me more interested in her project.
THE SONG IS HOT!!! HOW TACKY OF SOME OF YOU TO LET WHATEVER HAPPENED GET IN THE WAY OF YOU ACKNOWLEDGING HER ARTISTRY. I NEED A GOOD VIDEO FOR THIS!
And this is why she is one of the #1 women in R&B today. She crafts killer R&B songs.
‘You wore the crown, you made my body feel heaven-bound’ SPILL it, Alicia! She is giving me heartbroken chick on the side on this one. Love it.
i might cop the album. you can’tt deny her on dis.
all of u people have no life whatsoever to be worried about another adults personal life.get ur own money and then worry about alicia.she’s still gonna sell!anyways i like it.when i heard the title of the song i thought it would be sad but no…its gotta different feel to it.i dig it alicia.keep the good shit coming!
The song
is really good people !! You should not be so hard, I don’t know what happened and it is none of my bizness but Alicia is just a human being, she is not perfect and never meant to be. You should stop idolizing famous people because they are just like us, be in the spotlight don’t make you a better person, they are human being and stay human being and make mistakes just like us…
love is a crazy thing, and sometimes when you think your in love, someone else comes along, and you fall even deeper for that person..you guys never knows what happened between alicia and moshanda, and swizz…and quite honestly, WHO CARES??! im sure half of the people calling her a home-wrecker have also been dealt the short hand of the stick by being with a man who was involved with someone else…i LOVE the song..its something different! i love alicia keys, and she is a talented woman…TALENT DOES NOT EQUAL INNOCENCE! and when she does in her personal life does not mirror her ART! love it, and i will support her!!
Some of yall been lookin for a reason to hate on Alicia since she took over and now that yall THINK yall know about her, Mashonda and Swiss’ situation yall have gotten what yall wanted a reason to hate on another great black female artist. Get real.
This song is AMAZING! Got like an oldies or better an 80s vibe to it.
I love Alicia no matter what people say about her. She slept with a married man and so have many other women. She’s not first and definitely won’t be the last. Only god can judge her.
This new single is hot! Hope its a huge hit for her.
This ia s Good Single!
no women can take anothers womens man . in his heart he was already gone and his wife knows that she wants to play victim. alicia doesnt have special powers to make that man leave his wife alicia didnt marry that woman swiss beats did. so she owes her nothing
It’s O-K.
I prefer John Mayer’s “Dreaming with a Broken Heart”.
This much better than the 1st single.
Love it. Much better than the first single.
What does her music have to do with who she’s involved with personally? You people are so crazy. You don’t know these people. You don’t know what was happenning in Swiss beatz’ home. Stop acting like these celebrity gossip sites are CNN.com.
i didn’t even think about mashonda when I first saw the title of the song..for some reason I thought of John Mayer’s “Dreaming With A Broken Heart”…I don’t kno why…but anyways…I like this song, and can’t wait for her album.
IA @ Londonlily..this stuff happens all the time. whether they were legally divorced, they were separated..Swizz probably on many occasions, made it clear to Mashonda that he didn’t want to be with her anymore. I have a feeling Swizz has wanted to divorce her, but Mashonda can’t let go. I think I read somewhere that Mashonda was bringing her kids into the situation. I can’t imagine trying to guilt someone into staying with me…having to keep up with the charade that we are still in love..smh..I feel if Swizz and Alicia are happy, let it be. My views on Alicia have not changed. I still am a huge fan of hers.
I like the song
This song is definitely HOT!!
WOW ppl are really not feeling AK b/c of this whole thing with Mashonda?? Is it b/c we actually know Mashonda as an artist (sort of) that we care?? Also, to the ppl talking about Lauryn Hill’s situations, the difference is that LH came up in the late 90s when we didn’t have blogs and nobody talked about an Artist’s dirt like we do now. Now everybody wants to judge an artist based on their personal life. Not to throw stones b/c I cursed CB’s situation after he beat up Rihanna.
That being said, I like this song alot! I’ve always liked AK as an artist, saw in concert last year and she was great. I wasn’t feeling her first single but I like this one. Keep ya head up Mashonda!!
This song is hot. Love it.

See, this is what the African American FEMALE community DOES NOT NEED! The only twoyoung African American starlets out there thats doing their thing would be Beyonce and Alicia Keys. Alicia is beautiful. Why she had to be trifling and then publish it is beyond me. I thought all of this was rumors, but apparently its true. I would like to put a prayerful hand upon Mashonda’s shoulder when she hears this or thinks about it because she does not deserve it. Beyonce should watch out because Alicia has proven to be the triflin Rhianna type. Ugh.
I love it. and Please would ya’ll move on from the mashonda crap. Alicia owed her nothing Swizz did. Ya’ll sound like Mashonda full of hate move one and get over it.. Alicia rocks..
i love this song till this day . her voice is amazing and she is beautiful . it`s a song about being hurt and it’s kind of hard to sleep with a broken heart seriously . i love this song and her (:
