Alicia Keys- No One

[nunu]

Hi everyone!

I just want to say that i LOVE this song! I haven't been a fan of Alicia Keys before, I did like some of her previous songs but this song really touched my heart!
I love the words, the music and the way she looks in the song!

Here is the link of the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktUSI...eature=related

I think she looks so good in the video, I love her hair when she's singing in the rain.
some people might think the lyrics are blah but the music is soo sweet and her voice sounds awesome.

What do you guys think of it??

thank you!


EDIT: sorry i just noticed that there is a whole thread talking about her album..

I really like the lyrics of the song. I don't like the melody, though. I don't like the way she sings the song either.

I love the way she looks in the video. The wild hair and natural look she has going really suit her.

she looks pretty but that song is getting on my nerves.
I was sick last week and it was on EVERY commercial! ahhh!

That background music is really annoying and I don't like the melody either. Meh. I don't think it's one of her best.

 

[tara_hearts]

It grates on my nerves.
it's been #1 on 106 and park tooooo long and on every commercial. My fiance puts it on mute and laughs at the faces she makes.


But she is really pretty. I will not tell a lie.

I love the song. I didn't think her album would be as popular, but she's sold about 742,000 copies in one week. Congrats! I really like the CD, too.

I know!!! I never would have thought she would sell those numbers. It's her most successful release so far. I have to say though, that she's always been a big seller for J Records. Her albums always sell well. All four of her albums have debuted at #1. But 742,000 is crazy! Alot of big stars aren't even breaking 500,000 these days. Who knew As I Am would be so popular?

I like "No One", that is the best song I have ever heard by her. Yeah, her voice is ok, but I love the melody and lyrics. It kinda has a reggae vibe to me.. a very subtle sound!!

I like this version way better than Alicia's:

Sidebar: It would be nice if Beyonce could sing quality lyrics like Alicia Keys and India Arie.

I know! I was the only one singing "No One" in the club on Wed. and I was wondering if people were even feeling her. I was amazed at the sale because I know she's well-anticipated, but I just wasn't hearing the buzz.

Wow. Yes! Beyoncé is too much of a product now. But, she could take a crap in the studio and her fans would still be on it. I think she's far too talented for the BS records she puts out. She relies too much on what's hot at the moment instead of making timeless music.

I LOooooove this song!

 

[Macnarsandlove]

i has become just nerve wracking

 

[aziajs]

I don't think Beyonce will ever put out the type of music that Alicia or India produce because Beyonce is not a musician. Beyonce is a performer. I could go really into it but I will save you all my soapbox speech. Simply put, Alicia is the real deal. Beyonce is not.

 

[Hilly]

This isn't my fav AK song, but it feels so heartfelt. I dig it.

I liked that! She has a stronger voice than Alicia. I liked it because she sang it with emotion. That's what make Alicia Keys' songs so great. You can feel it when Alicia sings even when her vocals are the strongest. This girl nailed it. If you look at someone like Esmee Denters (who I like) she sang her version of the song too but she just belted it and threw in alot of runs and it took away from the song because it was just her showing of her voice.

Uhn-uhn, sister, spill it! I have a feeling we are I2I on this one. All I know is "The Hottest Chick In The Game" has been smashed in record sales---again.

 

[neeshie]

I think she sounds really whiney in this song .... so not feeling it .... i am usually a fan though, maybe it will grow on me

 

[nunu]
