The intro is definitely not boring. Love to hear her play the piano. Also she got everyone's attention. No other instruments, just Alicia and the piano. That could be why it seems so much louder. Beautiful. Her voice sounds great here.
@bobbystandal She does not seem drunk at all. The intro was not boring. What was wrong with that intro? Can you do that? She's a great pianist and singer. That belt was a D5, she has a strong chest voice. She can't help it if she has that much power in her voice.
@ThePianoguy89 I'm sorry, but 2 1/2 minutes before she sings a single note? Boring. I could do that. If I chose to...which I wouldn't. D5? great. It was a shout and an ugly one. She has power, yes, but she can help whether she decides to control it like a pro, or BLAST from pianissimo into fortissimo from out of nowhere for no reason. I have heard her sound TONS more musical which is why I said she sounded drunk instead of "she sucks" or something like that. This IS oversinging. Sorry.
@bobbystandal No it was not boring, yes she could get a little shouty, but she can control her belting. Other singers can get a little shouty too, like Jennifer Hudson. That so-called "shout" was not ugly, it was loud and bright as the same time. She does not do that for no reson, she does that for emotive purposes. Her voice is great and she barely oversings.
This is her best live version of Fallin EVER! She's the best! Loved her jazzy intro and how she arpeggiated some parts of the song with the piano. Love the vibrato in her singing! She is one of a kind!
Ms Keys is very brave. Only her and the piano, and it sounded great!! Not even a backup singer. She is truly one of the most talented people today yet she seems so down to earth and kind. She wants to have a relationship with her audience. Gotta love her. She sang this song so well and her voice was perfect. I hope we're blessed with her music for many more years. It is truly a gift.
Alicia Keys is a so talented woman.Her voice is so strong.I like her music and the content from the song if I can't got u.This unplugged fallin song is so amazing. She is the best and respectable R&B singer I' ve ever seen.+_+
Here at this show Alicia is showing off her new product. Software that runs on your computer and using a midi keyboard you have Alicia's £150,000 piano for £100. It was made with help from Yamaha & Native Instruments shes running the piano sofware on a very posh looking midi controller pluged into her laptop its the laptop creating those sounds using her software it's called Alicia's Keys and is out 1st April from Native Instruments.
Miss Alicia Keys is so damn bad-ass, amazingly talented and awesome! Saw this A-1 performer in concert in San Diego in '08. Piano and vocals took my breath away...so good I was almost in tears!! ALICIA KEYS is top-notch 4Real!
of course she wrote it herself, she's an artist, that's her impromptu intro to fallin, before each perfomance she plays it in different variations. Google Fallin at Marian Mac Partland show or from concert in Rio, and Netherlands for Radio 1 you will hear similar melody.
Her songs have a rare quality that is lacking in today's R&B. Seems like artists are too quick to package a catch tune without truly developing music like Alicia does.
Her music is above and beyond anything Beyonce has done.
When u played the intro, I knew it was going to be deep, I didn't know what to expect at first. Then you sang my all time fav song. You said that song can be about anyone it can be about your mom your dad yourself your ex..... fill in the blank. But times like these I rely on music. Sometimes things I deal with are better left unpoken of. And music gives me the conversations I can't have. This version of this song was the convo I needed to keep going on.
So glad you enjoyed it. It was a total surprise when I found out I was going to be there on the front row. I told myself that I had to capture her energy for her fans...like you! Take care...
Love!!!!!!
