Spotify Alicia Keys's album is ok, but it's not the kind of thing you could stand to listen to more than once. One of the problems is that all of the songs remind me of something else, probably even Coldplay (a bit). All of them. Some examples, with links to the Keys track on Spotify, for those of you who have Premium:
The Bible
Gabriella Cilmi's "Awkward Game"
Beyonce's "If I Were A Boy"
Pussycat Dolls's "Stickwityou"
The Kids From Fame
Richard Marx "I Will Be Right Here Waiting For You"
Derrivative R&B. Take your pick.
Bonnie Tyler
Early Destiny's Child
Featuring Beyonce. Also a bit Salt N Pepa.
Hill Street Blues
Ultimately, then, a major step down from the genius Songs In A Minor which still sounds fresh and new.
