When she performed at the 2012 iTunes Festival, Alicia Keys debuted the live version of the cut ‘Brand New Me’.
Now, in what definitely has us all kinds of stoked, today welcomed the arrival of its official version- co-written by ‘Easier In Bed’ performer Emeli Sande.
A motivational song based on one’s individual to finding the best version of themselves, it arrives two three weeks before the launch of her new album ‘Girl On Fire‘.
Enjoy below…

NOW THIS IS THE ALICIA I KNOW AND LOVE!
The song and the softer image in that photo is a huge improvement over what I’ve seen and heard so far.
Anyways
Top 5 AutoTune Queens
1.) Ke$ha (That’s all you b****)
2.)Justin Beiber (Yea b**** I seen that horrible clip of you on the Vickie secrets fashion smh gurl just a mess)
3.)Britney Spears (Need I say more, but I love you b****)
4.)Chris Brown (Ugh hate when he uses AutoTune he sounds horrible with it and besides I don’t think he needs it he has a decent singing voice)
Tpain (Ke$has daddy)
you stan for Nicki Minaj and Rihanna, your opinion on vocals is irrelevant.
Don’t call Chris Brown an damn queen. He is not gay just asked your fav Rihanna. Chris can use whatever the f*** he likes and leave T-Pain alone as well! Also, SICKI GARBAJ’S fake ass should be at the top of the auto-tune queens list! ‘Copycat’, I’m sure Kelis was talking about her when she made that sonng. The unoriginal slore…. “TBOZ said it best, b****** be sucking d**** and calling it talent”….LOL”
b**** you must want to get cut I thought we was cool but F*** it h**
Alicia is a Triple threat.
Alicia is the best… CLASS aways LAST!
Alicia is the best… CLASS always LAST!
This Is Primo Alicia!
This Needs To Be A Single.
Great song! Alicia’s going to slay those charts when she comes out because she appeals to so many people, doesn’t release throw-away-albums every year, and has her promo game together. Single material.
Then end note, the way she sang “don’t be maaaaaaad”, a nod to her old work. Great stuff!
The day Swizz cheats on this woman will be the day she knows the true meaning of betrayal.
He cheated on his wife to be with you and now you are his wife he will do the same to you. It’s called Karma baby, and it goes around.
Get LOST!!!!
You dont find it strange that MASHONDA didnt go after Swizz FIRST BABY MOTHER but want to go after Alicia Keys. Swizz was separated. Some may consider that as still cheating others dont. And from what I understand Swizz wanted a divorce long time but Mashonda did not wanted to sign those papers.
You are making excuses for Alicia. In the words of Nene “Close your legs to married men!”
I loved this song when I heard the live version and I love it even more now!
Sing it girl!
Alicia Keys and piano, that’s all i needed, it way better than Girl On Fire! Love it
Very out-of-tune at many places in this song. I know she’s trying to sound “real” but you can use Autotune in a subtle way so the listener doesn’t have to listen to all the out of tune places. Other than that, it’s a pretty song even though the chorus is very weak. This would be a good b-side or a song she plays only live in concerts. They would never play this on the radio unless Payola is involved.
You obviously STUCK on STUPID. Out of tune dont get you 14 Grammys. Then to say AUTOTONE when she sung the same exact song and sounded the same live. GET THE F*** OUT. Your a hater and you need to stop being STUPID!
It’s “you’re a hater,” not “your a hater.” Get some education, sweetie! It won’t hurt you, I swear (giggles). You’re obviously stuck on stupid. Tootles, b****!
I just heard it on the radio already. The said a new rack from Alicia Keys is up next, and it was “Brand New Me”. Go stand in front of a Bus.

Beauriful song.
I like the song, good job Alicia.
The lyrics is very powerful and the vocals were very sweet. OMG This is giving me that IF I AINT GOT YOU feel. This is real music! Well done Alicia Keys
Some of u haters need to sit yo ass down. It’s like the only.artists yall s*** on.are the ones who actually have talent and can sing…then here you come white so.u gotta.be right and starting popping off at the mouth about how they can’t sing, they’re screaming and shouting too much blah blah blah. Just stfu already. There are those of us left in this world who prefer to listen to people who can sing.
Love it!
Can´t wait for her album and Bruno Mars. I hope Xtina´s is enjoyable too (I´ve heard mixed reviews)
Definitely should’ve been the first single. Much better than “Girl On Fire.”
This is a good song!
Loved it the first time I heard it and I still love it, even though the music is a little different. Alicia will always be the same Alicia deep down. I know she has been through a lot of changes and it seems like everything is changing but really she is the same. I hope she stays classy and respectful. Much love to her.
OMG ! I got slayed Tbh.
OK, now THIS is the Alicia Keys that I love: Alicia on the piano, a beautiful melody and – for the most part – a toned-down production. Alicia hit it out of the ballpark with this song. LOVES IT!!!!!

Good song
Fnally got a chance to listen. My first impression is I think it’s a nice song but it doesn’t sound like ‘hit’ or maybe not even single material, more like a good filler.
You obviously do not know real music…
I know and love real music. Unfortunately ‘real music’ is not determinative of whether or not the song will be a hit these days. Just look at Bilboard 100’s top ten on any given recent week, although there are some exceptions, most so called hits are not what I consider real music. I think this song has quality but that definitely does not mean it will necessarily be a hit or a big single. Based on the singles I’ve heard I think Alicia is going for a sound a bit outside of the pure R&B arena this time but so far I’m not sure if that will work in her favor. We’ll see.
She and Emeli Sande write well together! Not Even The King and this are amazing!
this is REAL music.
Yes Alicia Baby blow my wig away. This song is the s***… Sing it for me babyyyy Siiiiiinnngggggggggggg!!!!!!
