  • 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...

  • 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.

  • Isn't it time for Miss Aretha to hand her the throne..."Queen of Soul"

  • @bobbystandal She's showing off the piano software, hench the long intro.

  • Love!!!!!!

  • 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 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.

  • @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.

  • Alicia Keys is a goddess. Ms. Goddesslicia is so beautiful and talented! She inspires me everytime!

  • @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.

  • What is the name of her intro ?

  • She only did that long boring intro so she could PIERCE YOUR EARDRUMS with that

    wail at 2:34. She seems a little drunk. Shout a little more, PLEASE.
