I was a teen when I first heard If I ain't got you, but she wasn't big then, at least that was my impression. She slayed me with karma and nowadays I'm in love with You don't know my name!
I always appreciated her as a musician, because she educated herself for that and her writing skills are amazing! That is why I got her last album and I can't say I liked it a lot. The whole girl on fire didn't sweep me off my feet, to this day I have trouble with the lyrics of the song. I liked Tears always win, Brand new me and That's when I knew. Luckily, since my bf appreciates her, I got her discography and now I'm enjoying the rest of her music
I'm ready for a new album. Although I feel GOF is a good album, to me its not a Alicia album. No R&B artist comes close to her when it comes to making great albums.
If I ain't Got You is iconic here in US as well. It still gets played on older stations and lets not even talk about American Idol. Its so incredible how Alicia self wrote and self produced that song.
Is Indonesia really the only country where "If I Ain't Got You" is really ICONIC?
I mean, I barely see anyone else mentions that song whenever there is a topic about iconic songs or songs that will be remembered 10 years from now.
I guess it was massive hits in Asia. "If I ain't got you" is one of the most well known songs for western acts in Korea. It's her biggest hits by far here.
Yes baby!! Did you guys know Alicia self wrote and produced "If I Aint"????? She is one of the few female artist who can self write and produce her own songs. So far, not many women have accomplished what she has creating her own music.
She's da shet. I just hope Girl on Fiyer was just a slight blimish in her discography for now on (not and bad album...but not on the level of her other albums).
Fallin' and You don't know my name are effing masterpieces.
I so love Try sleeping with a broken heart too <3
My top 3 are Fallin', You don't know my name and If I ain't got you <3
I like Try sleeping, too, like a lot of her other songs, but the last two I mentioned in the first sentence are battling always for no. 1
Right now I am in a You don't know my name phase.
