I have always enjoyed the music on this album and I was glad to be able to listen to those songs again.  This is one of her first albums and I am not a fan of her new music. I really enjoyed it.

Hey,

I really loved this album. My older brother purchased it for me for Christmas and it was splendid! The intro is really amazing and I loved the way it ended. Of course, there are songs on there that I'm not in love with such as "Fire We Make" and "Listen to Your Heart". I will say though, even though a lot of people didn't like the Nicki Minaj part, I found it interesting and I think it added a nice twist to the album. The introduction, "De Novo Adagio" is beautiful and I think my favorite part of the entire album. Me, being a pianist myself, really appreciated the beautiful intro.

"Brand New Me" is a really nice song with really nice lyrics. I love the piano and the music in the song and overall, it's a really meaningful song.

"When It's All Over" is a weird song. I mean, the tune and the music don't exactly match up so perfectly and I don't think anyone will love the song at first, but I grew to like the song very much and I love the ending with Keys' daughter. It's super cute!!!

"Listen to Your Heart" is a nice song at first, but it gets a little cliche. It has a nice message but after a while, you don't want to listen to it anymore. If anyone asks, I like the song. But I wouldn't listen to it 5 times in a row, for sure. The verses are cool but I'm really not that big of a fan of the the chorus which is a really important part of a song.

"New Day" is a wonderful song and one of the best songs. It reminds me of a reggae "Empire State of Mind", in a way. May I add, that I like how she had touches or reggae roots in this album. It really spiced it up and I love how there are some definite party songs on this album. And this one is one of them. It really makes you want to dance.

"Girl on Fire" is a really nice song. The vocals are fantastic and the background singers did a really nice job as well. I can't complain about the song. I don't think Nicki ruined the song at all. I still love her verses. I mean, I prefer the first verse in the beginning instead of the second towards the middle ending of the song. She didn't have to have two, but overall, it's a really nice song to listen to. No hate on Nicki! :)

"Fire We Make" is a slow seductive sexy song that you listen to with your partner. Me, being single, couldn't really relate to the song and since it had Maxwell, it reminded me of older R&B. I'm not talking about 80s. I'm talking about 90's and early 2000's. I have no hate towards the song, but I'm not a big fan of this one. Still, the vocals are really good for this song. Maxwell was a good artist to add for the song.

"Tears Always Win" is a very nice song. The lyrics are so very meaningful and they're very nice. I love the harmony in this song and I often times catch myself singing this beautiful song. It's a great song in the album. Not one of my favorites, but a good song.

"Not Even the King" is a very good song. It reminds me of another Keys song from the mid 2000's, I believe. "If I Ain't Got You" is the song it reminds me of and both songs are really beautiful. I'm loved Keys from the start and she's one of my favorite artists. :)

"That's When I Knew" is a very soft song that makes me really happy to listen to because it's so relate-able and sweet and kind. It reminds me of soft colors and happiness. I think of Spring when I think of this song and it's a really adorable song.

"Limitedless" is most definitely one of my favorite songs on the enitre album. I loved it so much. I love the beat and how it makes you want to sing and dance and be silly. Although, I would recommend it for a party, it is a love song and it has very cute lyrics.

"One Thing" is like most others. It's a really adorable song with beautiful music and beautiful lyrics. No complaints what-so-ever.

"101" was the perfect way to end the album. It's a really soft beautiful song with a really nice tune and melody. The piano is so good! My goodness! Yes! I'm in love with the way they ended the song. It's so beautiful and it reminds me of a part in "Brand New Me". Hallelujah to Alicia Keys for making such a good album! :)

I really enjoy the fresh approach they have taken. Some things haven't changed, and the lyrics and sounds work well. However it seems like the album has a more complete "theme" than the older material. The sequencing of the tracks is close to perfect.

I was really suprised to see the negative reviews. I am currently enjoying the album. It's different from the old stuff but it is still great. I actually like the "Filler Song" Given Up, it's rather catchy. But to each there own I guess.

Its a great album by them and I've heard a lot of songs from it since there are some songs that were more "out there" than others and got more exposure but I'm so glad I have the whole album to listen to now.

Although I usually discourage people from giving bad ratings when the product they receive is defective under the circumstances described in a few of the reviews here I completely agree. It made me reconsider before buying and I waited several months before taking the chance, well I am glad to report that the copy I was sent is perfect. No noise or any other issues with the quality of the pressing.
As for the sound of the album I am very pleased. The seperation is very pronounced and the music distinct and clear. I compared it with the original recording and this is definitely a step up. In my mind easily worth the $20.
Hopefully there are no more pressing problems with this album and reviews will be on the recording itself.

I enjoyed the album. It has a range of music genres and Chris makes the transformations well.  This version even includes a dancehall song featuring Sean Paul.  He's showing a lot more maturity in his music at this point, and I think it is a reflection of where he's headed.

I really liked how the album was in a school notebook style and every song was good. :D The pictures also made them look even more handsome than they already are. cx
