  • Alicia does it endless sincerely!

  • HEEEY!! Anyone know what song that starts playing near the end? Grr.

  • I have been searching for this song ever since I saw the opening in Sex and the City 2 when Samantha was walking across the street and the car honked at her.

  • While nothing will ever beat Blondie's original--this cover is as good a runner up as there will ever be. Alicia and Leona Lewis are the best.

  • this sounds good

  • rapture by blondie is better

  • I don't hate this version, but I like more Blondie's version

  • love this songg!!!!!!!!!!

  • Unlike Harold Camping, at least Alicia Keys has a real rapture

  • Alicia Keys really likin this song..... J.R Tha Prince

  • Labels or Love > Rapture

  • coooooooooooooooooool \oo/

  • @RavenSimone29 thank you very much !

  • Her voice!

  • Good song!

    Alicia Keys is HOT!

    :)

  • It's amazing how she can make this sound even better than Debbie Harry. Alicia's voice is great! Love this song. Didn't think it could ever be remade better but then that was before Alicia touched it.

  • ALICIA KEYS VERSION >>>>> BLONDIE, COKIE WHATEVER HER NAME IS

  • alicia keys, the best sing ever

  • OMG she did so good!

    i just luv her and the producers were able to mix in elements of the SATC theme to give a brand new and totaly original spin XD

    i also luv the rap part about Carrie and her girls lol

    i luv both versions the same :)

    u go Alicia!

  • I like this version better

  • Blondie's version is way better! But this is nice too.

  • I had no idea this was even a cover until today...!

  • Debbie Harry likes it!

  • @seydelmj

    ya, blondie ;-))

  • Gilly Hicks BTS 2010

  • Love it!!

  • Omg why the hell did she think this was ok.. bc its not!

  • she's very good, love this version!! alicia the best!

  • woooow

  • Fucking awful God and you people saying this shit is good I hope you rott in hell

  • @Sourpiemun you're a fuckin moron

  • OMG!!! This was nice. Alicia Keys did a really good done on this remake. Normally folks do a remake and they mess it up, badly. Alicia, with her midas touch, gave this song its proper respect by not screwing it up. Great job, Ms. Keys!! Bravo.

  • does anyone know/have a mix of this and "Labels of love" by fergie as they both have a VERY similar intro and i can't seem to find a mix of the two?

  • awsome!!

    I love SATC.

  • buenisimoo!!

  • nice song!!

  • Alicia has a good voice she can do MUCH better.

  • i'd still fuck alicia keys regardless of if she fucked up a classic...

  • Damnit! Count on TNB to screw up classic songs! There was a reason why "Rapture" covers haven't been released for sale to the public. Alicia - good job fucking up a great song by Blondie.

  • @TheTankinTortuga Damn, she really fractured this song!

  • lov it :-)

  • Is this song which Sex and the City starts?

  • oh they are gonna be making a 3rd movie alright. they're doing at least 3 or 4 from what i heard, plus a prequel about carrie bradshaw. i love the show but i think the first movie is way better. 2nd movie was really good but not as good as the first.

  • @MelissaAnnLegard1989 By the contrary, I think this one is much better

  • This version is good,but can't compare to Debbie

  • compared to blondie, this is shit. alicia's not a bad singer but can't get nowhere close to debbie.

  • My favourite Sex&theCity, and the song fits it as well

  • cool remake

  • Am I the only one who heard "I'm so hairy and my pants so big" in the rap?

    I'm loathed to call this a cover, since it just takes the beat from Blondie, but nothing else. They should have called it something else, then acknowledged that they've sampled Blondie.

  • @JustAnotherDE LOLOLOLOL it says I'm so Carrie and my man so Big. :D

  • @JustAnotherDE lol

    no she says "Couse I'm so Carrie and my man's so Big"

    :)

  • @aGirl465 Did she mean Swizz-Beatz?!!!!

  • LOVE IT:)

  • so bad

    the blondie version is better!!

  • @CHANTELsce I completely agree with your comment

  • Awesome song!! Alicia is amazing... love this track!!!!!! Original

  • yuck this song was just ruined! alicia keys should just leave Blondies music alone! yuck yuck yuck!

  • @Derrchar everybody should leave blondie music alone, cause the songs can't really any better and anyone just can't beat debbie.

  • The vocals are fine, but i don't like what they've done to Blondie's version over-all. It's too noisy, in my opinion. Alicia Keys is very good though, I went to her show in Holland, it was awesome.

  • nice :)

  • Rapture. That reminds me of something... xD

  • they have turned an amazing song into.... sex and the city... just terrible

  • Alicia is the best!!!!

  • @SantaBadd Dumbest comment ever

  • oh my god this is hot.

  • This song is amazing. So fierce.

  • Alicia Keys is an amazing artist ... In one song I can distinctly hear Alicia, the original essence of Blondie, and the Sex and the City theme that is in the background. And even though I can hear each piece distinctly, they still blend so flawlessly. I MUST HAVE THIS SONG!!

  • Fantastica versione!!!

  • to be honest, i thought this film was sooo good. it made me laugh so much, and the story line was also good because it shows that every marriage isn't perfect etc. i think they should do another film :)

  • @rowesoc from what I can tell It was supposed to be about women adjusting to the changes of getting older and balancing it all (ie family, careers, etc.) but instead of admitting to growing up and getting older they resorted to countless bad puns and antics. I'm still pretty upset about the movie.

  • i loved the fashion..but the movie its story was lacking..but its a good movie to pass the time

  • love the song...not too crazy about the film and this is coming from the biggest SATC fan out there!

  • @rowesoc you are so right. I can't imagine how anyone could think this movie in any way empowers women...or enhances america's reputation. Not to mention that so much of the dialogue strays from the plot.

  • Think this is pretty cool... astonishing summer hit of 2010....

  • This is absolutely incredible! Brill twist on a classic!

  • ohI love this song!! can't wait to see!!!! welcome back SAC!!!!

  • ohI love this song!! can't wait to see!!!! welcome back SAC!!!!

  • ohI love this song!! can't wait to see!!!! welcome back SAC!!!!

  • I am digging this song

  • sounds more like love and lables 2

  • I like alicia keys, but WTF was that? She should have left this song alone.

  • it will sound better in the club with a couple of drinks! good though!

  • the only thing i liked about this song is the show/ movie theme ,. Other than that, this song is TRASH

  • First rap song to ever get played on mainstream top 40 radio, and Alicia did a great job of making it modern and fresh and a great addition to the soundtrack. Remember, this was written for the MOVIE, first and foremost, not just as a dance tune. The changing of the rap sequence was necessary to make it relevant to the movie, and it was extremely well written and performed. It captures the vibe of the movie to a 'T'. Awesome job Alicia!

  • I lke it quite a bit actually and wasn't expecting to cuz Debbie and Blondie are like GODS in my opinion. Covers don't have to be exact copies IMO and I like what she did with it. Now hopefully people who have never heard of the song Rapture and/or Blondie (you know, people a LOT younger than me!) will go out and listen to the original and a whole new generation of Blondie fans will be born! LOL

  • gotta admit... pretty good cover!

  • It just doesnt have the same jazz to it that Jennifer hudsons one had in SATC1...theme tune in it is the only good thing i think!

  • Ok, I had to listen to the entire song before I made my decision... I LIKE IT. :)

  • Ugh, total Butchery, I semi enjoyed it lit she ruined the rap sequence. Sorry Alicia. If she did this not meant to be about Sexy and The City it would have been perfect.

  • Different for her indeed, but she did her thing and put her own spin on it. She kinda made it fresh and kinda like house music, but I like it.

  • i love szex and the city(L)

  • I was looking forward to hearing this but... BOO! why does she have to go "uh yeah come on" all through the thing? UGH.

  • @voodoocat13 exactly what i was thinking

  • Sounds great excpet for the movie references in the rap portion. :)

  • Kenji Fineberg

  • I love Alicia's vesion! sounds amazing.

  • Ugh. The downward spiral of music continues.

  • TOTALLY GORGEOUS!

  • I didnt like this version, it doesnt sound good as the original, it was a tough one!!

  • What is with the stupid guitar at the end?? Anyone have a version without it?

  • @tarotdude2006 haha i know! i heard that and i was like "wtf?!?" its not actually part of the song is it?

  • the rap part is the best part of the song...

  • Well, the person who said it has already outsold the original is wrong. Rapture sold nearly 2 million in the US alone, over 4 million worldwide. This version is no where near that. Not even over 100,000 yet. It is pretty good though, but not as good as Bondie's version. They should have got Blondie to re-record this version or at least do a duet with Alicia, since the Sex and the City girls are originally 80s ladies too, like Debbie Harry.

  • @bob7rob7 that would be the best idea..Blondie is everything..Alicia singing the chorus and Deborah doing the new rap..WOW..what a collaboration that would be.

  • @bob7rob7  i was talking about the movie pre-sales =)

  • ORIGINALS w/blondie is better...sorry alicia

  • love that a Blondie song kicks off the new movie...AK does a good job but nobody does it better than Debbie Harry of Blondie

  • Comment removed

  • HD:-)

  • Wow, pre-sales have already out sold the original, which was in the top 20 pre-sales of all of time, talking millions! Fandango says its roughly 20% of its daily sales, and we still got two weeks left.

    Midnight shows are already sold out, theaters are adding more screens to keep up with demand!

  • "Rapture" is a classic and i love Alicia Keys dearly but she ruined this song :( to think i was listening to Blondie's version earlier and was happy, i heard thi shit and got pissed off lmao

  • i LOVE LOVE LOVE the rap like part!!

  • this sounds really different for Alicia! She would be the last person I'd expect to cover a Blondie song, but she does a pretty good job of it. I especially love the rap-style bits, Alicia should definately rap more in my opinion haha.

  • cooool ;)...das is mal was anderes ;)

  • song's fun, OK but still... omg Alicia, what are they doing to you?

  • interesting cover... really different from the original! cool

  • Love the fact it manages to keep the new wave beat yet with an added flavor layer of smooth funky rhythm. Even the main theme of Sex & the City famous piano tone is a nice homage. I totally dig the break down of the Latin/disco beats at the 3:15 mark, and why do I imagine hearing this in Studio 54? =)~
