Alicia Keys Rocks The Royal Albert Hall

Published: Tuesday 14th Jun 2011 by David

The push for Alicia Keys‘Songs In A Minor: Collector’s Edition‘ heightened yesterday when she gave a rousing performance in London’s Royal Albert Hall.

Billed as  ‘Piano & I:A One Night Only Event With Alicia Keys’, she roused fans with renditions of songs lifted from the release. With the help of her trusty Yamaha, she brought the house down in a way only Ms.Keys can.

Peep ‘If Ain’t Got You’ below…

    Alicia’s voice sounds so strong. It’s something about her that I really like. Her spirit is awesome and I’m glad that she’s getting the attention she deserves for being so successful in the last 10 years.

    a real breath of fresh air in this world of “noise”.

    Alicia is definitely in a league of her own. When she sings and plays that piano she really touches people. Absolutely amazing! Anyone lucky enough to see one of these very special shows should consider thierself very blessed. Alicia is truly a special and very brave lady. I wish her an amazing next show in New York. NO ONE better!

    This is a lesson to all the other artists, stop recording songs that you can’t sing live.
    Love AK, one of my fav R&B artist.

    LEGENDARY!

    Was there last night.. absolutely mindblowing!!! No band.. no backing singers… no backing track… just her voice and her piano. The show was nearly 2 hours long, did pretty much everything from A Minor, some covers including Mary’s “Real Love”, then went through each album doing the singles. Voice sounded fantastic, flawless piano playing.. Im so glad i was there! The idea of an intimate evening really worked well

    Both Alicia’s performances in Paris and England were stellar. You can tell that she works hard at perfecting her craft. I was in tears because her music touches your heart and soul.

    She really is amazing in concert. She reminds me of Prince because they are true musicians and really a lover and student of music.

    Her and a piano and she still slayed for 2+ hours. Your leotard wearing, colored lacefront having favorites could never! LEGEND.

    Saw a video of “No One” on YouTube and I think Alicia seemed to be really touched by the audience singing with her. She is such a very beautiful person in every way. Would love to see a live show like this but thinking positive–at least we have YouTube. Much luck to her in New York. I know that will be a VERY special show. Looking forward to any future albums. 🙂
    @IHAVETHECLAP, I really wouldn’t let anyone know that. Anyway, It’s a shame you feel you have to make that silly comment every time something about Alicia shows up. If it bothers you SO much, why not just listen to artists you like and let it go. Stop dwelling.
