not too much to say about Alicia Keys, unless you’ve been living under a (really really dense) rock for the past half decade.. this songwriter/singer/producer is supremely talented in all of those capacities, boasting a timeless, velvety voice that has captivated audiences all over the globe, crossing not only genres, but generations.. with “Doesn’t Mean Anything,” Ms. Keys does it yet again over her trademark piano lines and subtle syncopation on the production end of things.. it’s been on repeat for a while, but it’ll stay on repeat for quite a while longer.

Alicia Keys – “Doesn’t Mean Anything” Lyrics

Used to dream of being a millionaire, without a care
But if I’m seeing my dreams and you aren’t there
’cause it’s over
that just wont be fair
darling,
rather be a poor woman living on the street,
no food to eat,
cause i don’t want no pie if i have to cry.
cause it’s over
when you said goodbye

all at once…
i had it all
but
it doesn’t mean anything
now that you’re gone
from above seems i had it all
but it doesn’t mean anything
since you’re gone

now i see myself through different eyes,
it’s no surprise
being alone will make you realize
when it’s over
all in love is fair I shoulda been there, I shoulda been there, I shoulda shoulda.

all at once…
i had it all
but
it doesn’t mean anything
now that you’re gone
from above seems i had it all
but it doesn’t mean anything
since you’re gone

I know I pushed you away
What can I do that would save our love
Take these material things
They don’t mean nothing
Its you that I want
All at once…
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone

All at once…
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone

Alicia Keys is one of the rare “classic” artists who’s been able to consistently churn out the hits by staying true to her own artistry & content while avoiding the bubble-gum content that dominates the current pop scene.

    Alicia Keys Tha’ Bomb! I wish I had the talent that she has . I think it is so unusual for anyone that can play a piano as divine as she does.
