My favorite AK song ever! This song is still a total jam and Alicia at her absolute best when her sound is current. I love Drake's harmonies in the background as well. Everything from the song, look, and video was executed flawlessly. Such a shame this was her last major R&B hit because when she's on point she's ahead of her class. I also loved everything about The Element of Freedom and it's my favorite album from her.

This is quite possibly my favorite Alicia song as well. I go back and forth between this, "No One" and "If I Ain't Got You". It's beautiful, and the video is one of my all time favorites. So glad that this was a hit.

This, "Diary" and "TSWABH" are her best singles IMO. This is gorgeous.

This, LYWNSMA, and YDKMN are my Top 3 Alicia singles ever! You just get lost in the production and dreamy vocals. I also love the Drake Remix too with his added verse.

This is good and I love it, but it wouldn't be one of my top AK favorites.
The video is really good too.

This still stands as one of Alicia's best singles. I adore everything about it. I was glad it became a hit.

This is one of my favorite songs of the last few years, easily my favorite song from her. It's so smooth and she's never sounded better, really beautiful.

Released in May of 2010 as the fourth single from The Element of Freedom. Love this!

This may hold the title for favorite Alicia Keys song. This is such a beautifully done song. Underrated in general.

There was a thread for this in the 00s section, so I merged them and moved them here because it was released as a single in 2010.
This is one of her greatest songs imo.
