This is one of my favorite J-Lo songs. she wrote this with her ex husband Chris Judd. Its from the "enough" soundtrack. A great song from a great movie. The lyrics are really good...kind of inspirational.
Does anyone know if this charted? There was a video for this song so i assume it was released.
Does anyone have the MP3?

"Alive" hit #18 Adult Contemporary and #2 Club Play.
I hate it. Her worst single release ever.

Emotional song! I love it in the "Enough" credits!
"YEAH!" "You go girl!" "What did she ever do to you?!" "You show that bastard, J.Lo!"

Horrific. This and "Feelin' So Good" are the only two singles I don't like from her.

What an awful song. The video version was a little better, but that isn't saying much.
I have the video edit on mp3.

Everytime I heard it I couldn't help but laugh at how horrendous and pathetic her vocals were.
This is just weak.

She confirmed her role as worst singer in pop music with this track.

Funny, I was thinking about making a topic about this song just the other day.
I think it's a great song. I don't think it was even released to CHR/Pop, since it didn't come close to charting, but it was a mid-charter on the A/C chart.

I remember seeing the video for this one time on VH1 when it was out and I thought it was really cool to hear her sing a ballad like this, I couldn't find the song anywhere so I ended up asking for the "I'm Gonna Be Alright" CD single for Christmas. It's not one of her best songs but I thought it was good and very underrated.

I cannot at all the hate that is in this thread, this song is amazing, one of her best singles IMO. I prefer the main version to the video version. Wow, this was on club play? Who remixed this? THUNDERPUSS!

On the bottom tier of her work, but I wouldn't call it atrocious either.

This was a mess. I generally like Jennifer's music, but this is what happened when she tried to sing a song that was clearly out of her range. She's great when she stays within her range (example: the entire "This is me....then" album, loved it and her best work to date).

This is terrible. She doesn't have the voice for it.

Jennifer apparently asked her label to have Thunderpuss do the remixes after they had done "Feelin' So Good" and "Play" previously. Thunderpuss had singer Thea Austin ("Rhythm Is A Dancer", "Can't Get Enough", "You're The Worst Thing For Me") sing over their instrumental production to give the label an idea of how the remix would sound and they liked it so then they put Jennifer's vocals over the mix. Thea recorded some additional ad libs and stuff and those are the extra backing vocals that are heard in their mixes. Barry of Thunderpuss says that the version with Thea on lead still exists on a hard drive somewhere.
Video Edit
Thunderpuss Radio Version
I felt this song worked so much better in remixed form. Thunderpuss did a superb job. The added Thea vocals work so well.

I don't think she sounded that bad on here. I just think the song itself is pretty bland. She had better ballads over this one.

I don't think it SUCKS, but I rarely seek it out and I definitely think it exposes the fact that she just doesn't have the pipes for a song of this kind. I remember watching some live performance she did (from memory, it was either on Oprah or The View and she was wearing a long, white dress) and cringing at her vocals.
