  • beautiful famous black people all in one video?! classy!

  • my name is alicia and i wish i could sing like that alicia but i cant :(

  • Kerry Washington directed this man! She's crazy amazing!!!!

  • i have a question....real talk....do you think this in ANY WAY has something to do with erykah badu?

    think about it.....she had the same song on her world wide undergroud cd "i want you"

    both songs are amazing

    and big ups for all that notice common as an artist and rapper singing about other topics outside of drugs, egotistical power, and perverted sex

  • I've been in Kanye shoes like that before...Confronted by my homeboys girlfriend while he was upstairs with his ex. I had the exact same face..... Like uhh..........

  • The mood of this video and song combination is unparalleled.

  • Common and Alicia are looking so good together!..

  • The best ever...

    

  • Distinguished. Smooth. Classy. Thumbs up if you came back here in 2012 to be reminded what real hip-hop is supposed to sound like

  • this is classy indeed .

  • this is classy

  • alicia rubbin common's head. #AutomaticCoolness

  • if common touches alicia one more time going to be problems :)

  • I have so much respect of this man and his work.

  • god alicia keys is beautiful

    

  • Common is the common sense but Drake rhymes with fake!

  • common is very very underated ..time to give this dude his due!

  • common is the most underrated rapper ever

  • AH how did alicia keys not sing in this, pshhh

  • 119 people don't have anyone who wants them

  • With all that commercial rap out there, you forget about G.O.O.D Music like this

  • Common and Alicia were perfect for each other, since I saw them in Smokin Aces. How the fuck did Swiss get in? >_>

  • @3ni2nr

    I'm shaking my head to bruh.

  • god alicia keys is gorgeous!

  • Hey im a rapper from lilcockland and im 6 years old and I kno no 1 will read this but I suck and I want recognition and most of videos are spam sorry if I try too make u feel bad thanks ofwgkta golf wang

  • I know wat dis is like to want someone

  • 119 people have never had alicia in the house while kerry be visitin...

  • Butt - Putt - butts

  • Attention every rapper that released their first album anytime after the year 2000: Common is living proof that you don't have to rap about money, sex, violence, drugs and alcohol in order to sell records. Let's support more rappers like Common and Lupe Fiasco and less rappers like Lil' Wayne and Gucci Mane.

  • @TheBmaster25 Gucci makes some hype shit yo lol...

  • @TheBmaster25 too bad Lupe is weak.

  • @TheBmaster25 True that

  • @TheBmaster25 great comment. you can also say the same thing about LL Cool J

  • @TheBmaster25 its sad that you even consider Gucci mane a rapper he looks like a high school mascot with down syndrome

  • @TheBmaster25 you forgot about supporting nas :/

  • @TheBmaster25 Common and others like him forces people to think, and most hate the conclusions, so they skip it, choosing what only repeats their hedonistic world-view.

  • this shows the versatility of a flip cam

  • @ErichSchremp did they actually make this with a flip cam

  • common 

  • Common is Hip Hop!

  • Common should replace all that lil wayne shit group, because this guy is damn good at rapping, but the problem is that this song misses something, a better beat, some soul, something i dont know, but just something !

  • @superdrengendk12 misses something? You must be 13 years old and never been in love grow up then listen to the song you could feel the soul right as the bass line hits..

  • 2:00-2:03

    Alicia- Do you know what Common is doing

    Kanye- Uh, I don't know nothing!

  • CLASSIC VID!!!!!

  • kerri is so good playing the crazy looking roles..lol i luv her as an actress

  • чувак, это репчик

  • 'cause I want you, 'cause I want you

    I want you, I want you

    'cause I want you, 'cause I want you

    I want you, I want you  :)

  • Common likes chocolate athletic women who are cancers.....Alicia Keys is not dark enough!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Check out a new singer>>>Ashley Tucker Singer from Massachusetts! Upcoming star!

  • NICE... WILL-I-AM

  • @redvelvetreaper go fuck ur mother bitch u weak ass fuck boy lol

  • Drake is sick but not on a level with this guy, only mainstream FOLLOWERS back drake, not hating just voicing an opinion

  • @Voooswa not really his fans knew him before he went mainstream, and if your talking mainstream you could call common mainstream I mean he does world tours. mainstream isn't a type of music its when something becomes well known

  • Commons gotta be the dumbest muthafuqer on earth for not jumping on Alicia keys. Fuq what you all respond to this but I would have given it all up for her. What else can a man ask for than a beautiful wife who can bear him beautiful children?

  • I saw common a couple of weeks ago, he is one of God's treasures on Earth.

  • @nikkitheduchess Lucky you! Love the guy too much

  • Dammit lucky ass common! Alicia is looking too fine!!

  • ms keys you don't even know

  • @RedVelvetReaper

    stfu! ignorant fuck face.

  • @RedVelvetReaper dude why r u here

  • Same mansion used in Rihanna's "Take a Bow" video.

  • @JoAnnDenise1985 keen eye there Ms. JoAnnDenise good on you!

  • bom hip hop

  • Damn Alicia Keys fine.......

  • Hope the stars and the God align me and you

  • Beautiful song and the beat!

    The video follows the lyrics pretty well, I think. @ those speculating about the meaning of the video - I think it's obvious - The giril has not moved on, she sneaks into his appartment to steal an old tape/CD of the two of them. He still loves her, but moves on.

  • Who the fuck is Kerry Washington? I've never heard of that b*tch before. But go Alicia Keys! =D

  • @LNF91 She's An Actor Save the Last Dance and Lakeview Terrace.

  • This shit is deep

  • Kanye @ :17 -- (sheeplishly thinking) This nigga, Common, ain't gone believe what I just saw.

    Kanye @ :21 -- Pssh..Common, keep smiling and don't spill the champagne, just saw ya ex-girl hanging around outside before I walked into the crib, just thought I'd let you know.

    Common @ :42 - :50 -- (thinking) Look at her ole stalkin', breakin' and enterin', ass right here...(excuse me) let me go handle her right quick!

    Derek Luke @ :54 -- Yeah, yeah, I know -- she finna' fuck up your shit!

  • @atltwen TOO FUNNY

  • @atltwen lol

  • @atltwen LMMFAO!!!!!1 I was crying when I read this shit! Lol!!

  • @atltwen

    Alicia@ 2:00- 2:02-- Kanye! Where did Common run off too? We was just back there talking. You don't know? Yeah, whatever nigga. (thinking) This dude West covering for his boy, but Imma chill for now.

    Common @ 2:05- (thinking) Yo what the f*ck is that noise coming from over there. That's my word she betta not.....

  • @XTRABIG

    I like it...I really do.

    Man, I could narrate is entire video -- so much to work with!

  • Don't normally like 'em light but common deep so he can get it. LOL

  • <3 

  • Waaah?! Never saw this video before! Goapele brought me here. Kerry Washington is my dream type girl... I woulda stuck with her. Even though she was a little crazy here...lol

  • the best fckn song ever!!!!! i love this song!!!

  • Will. I. Am singing in the beginning

  • Ah, this song is like an old friend to my ears

  • GOTTA LOVE HER (HIP HOP + KERRY WASHINGTON) !!!

  • this was my jam back in 07, y'all

  • Yeah that is Kerry Washington, but hell she came across those streets at the start of the video like a crazed Psycho Chick, Common had that look on his face like "ah shit" she is about to set it off in here. I've had that look before and it is not a pretty sight when your EX goes off. I would have chosen Alicia Key...if the choice was mine.

  • Alicia is HOT

  • Common's delivery is so smooth! Check our remix of Sweet, Its that FIRE!!

  • Love this cut,nice video too..So that was kerry washington, interesting...

  • Will.i.am's production was so good back then...

  • This song was a good one and still is...

  • Ladies and gentlemen, I know this is getting annoying as fuck but spare me 25secs. I just directed&edited a music video to BLUE SKY a few days ago and I would love it if you took literally 1 minute to let me know what you think. My man Common was once in my position until you guys gave him a voice. Give me a shot too! Trust me I’m not your average comment poster!

    If you do like my video, come back thumbs up this comment. If you don't, then go ahead and Spam me. Fair??

    God Bless✌

  • hard to believe this came out 4 years ago....time flies.

  • Kerry Washington vs. Alicia Keys?!! i refuse to choose.

  • @djdopesic its simple really.....3 sum lol

  • GREAT SONG SUCKS IT CAME OUT WHEN ME AND MY EX LOVE SPLIT SO I HAD THIS SONG ON PLAYBACK

  • Still think Common & Alicia would've been a much better couple than her & Swizz Beatz...

  • @blackwind92

    That's because their both light skinned and pretty looking, whereas Swizz just looks like a high yellow duck beside her.

  • @blackwind92 Agreed. But its like now that Amber Rose is with Wiz Khlifa, some people say that she should have stayed with Kanye since he was the once who brought her to the spotlight. (Btw i'm not comparing Common with Kanye)

  • Yo what's the name of the track at the end.?

  • I FELL IN LOVE WITH THAT SECOND BEAT @ 3:47

  • smooth

  • cos the pain came down like a storm, i remained holdin on... cos i want u.

    mad wot u do for sumwun

  • he's so fine...and classy

  • Am I the only one who hears Alicia Keys voice at 2:11-2:22?

  • @5MinuteGraffiti it'd make sense considering she's in the video

  • @5MinuteGraffiti no you can hear her whispering

  • there's jus something about this man.

  • man i did'nt feel his rap at all

  • This beat is sick ! I keep liking Common better & better, also a good actor, man you got it.

  • Kanye? @2:02 ?

  • I remember when i saw this video i thought common and alicia

    keys were together when all along he was with serena and alicia

    was with swizz beats

    but i love this song & video!!

  • Alicia Keys... Dayyyyyum...! SO HOT!

  • damn common is so damn fine.

  • COMMON GOT CHESK IN LEFT HEAR , IT`S LIKE GAY

  • Look at all those successful, beautiful Brown people! YES!

  • @TajhSutton

    SHUTTTTTT UPPP why would he want her when he's got me ???
