Listener Comments:

Bought this album for “stop and stare” but actually liked the rest of the album more… once I got into it, I really started to dig their musical presence and creativity.

One of the very FEW albums I will EVER give 5-Stars to. I hope they’ll bring another superb album out soon.

This is by far the best CD I’ve ever listened to. I’ve been listening to it for months and can’t stop. Can’t wait for their next album!

First, let’s learn a little more about Alicia Keys. Wikiepdia describes her like this:

Alicia Augello Cook (born January 25, 1981), better known by her stage name Alicia Keys, is an American recording artist, musician and actress. She was raised in the Hell’s Kitchen area of Manhattan in New York by her single mother, where Keys made a television appearance on The Cosby Show at the age of four. She attended Professional Performing Arts School and graduated at 16. She later attended Columbia University before dropping out to pursue her music career. Keys released her debut album with J Records, having had previous record deals first with Columbia and then Arista Records.

Now let’s begin to discuss her new album As I Am

Alicia Keys – As I Am

Tracklist:

1. As I Am (Intro)
2. Go Ahead
3. Superwoman
4. No One
5. Like You’ll Never See Me Again
6. Lesson Learned
7. Wreckless Love
8. Thing About Love
9. Teenage Love Affair
10. I Need You
11. Where Do We Go from Here
12. Prelude to a Kiss
13. Tell You Something (Nana’s Reprise)
14. Sure Looks Good to Me

These songs are very beautiful, I love them very much.

By the time this long-awaited album saw its release date, most fans had probably read at least a couple of interviews with Alicia Keys in which she explained that first single, “No One”–a firestorm of a song clearly born of a sore heart and steeped in serious soul-searching, was about her decision to retreat from the obligations of stardom when she found out a loved one was in need of her care. The anecdote sticks not just because it explained the song so well–you can actually hear the pain, commitment, and determination in her sultry voice–but because it gets at what makes the woman behind the music so appealing. There’s only one way R&B artists grow to become legends, and it’s by drenching the words they sing with feeling (think Gladys Knight, Roberta Flack). The skeptical listener might have had her doubts before As I Am, but there’s no mistaking it now: Alicia Keys is well on her way to sharing a category with them. This record radiates not just old-soul maturity, the kind Alicia fans say makes her modern rarity, but real soul. (via: Amazon)

She achieved mainstream success in 2007 with the hit single “Love Song“, which brought her into the number one spot on the Billboard Pop 100 chart. Bareilles’ vocal range registers from contralto to mezzo-soprano.

You see? Sara Bareilles is a very popular singer. Now let’s talk about her most popular album, Little Voice. The album title is very interesting, and it really means something, just like the songs in it.

Tracklist:

Sara Bareilles – Little Voice (2007)

1. Love Song
2. Vegas
3. Bottle It Up
4. One Sweet Love
5. Come Round Soon
6. Morningside
7. Between the Lines
8. Love on the Rocks
9. City
10. Many the Miles
11. Fairytale
12. Gravity

That’s it, there are only 12 songs, but in my opinion, all of them are very wonderful, just like beautiful sound from the heaven. I love them like crazy.

For many listeners, Little Voice will be their first exposure to this soulful singer/songwriter, but it’s actually Sara Bareilles’ second record. Her first, the self-released Careful Confessions, led to a deal with Epic. Since then, Bareilles has opened for Marc Broussard and Maroon 5. She’s also become a bonafide soundtrack queen with tracks featured in female-centric films Girl Play, Loving Annabelle, and Monster-in-Law. As with her out-of-print debut, the UCLA grad wrote every song on her first major label recording (Little Voice features re-worked versions of several demo numbers). [Via: Amazon]

Now let’s take a look at what other fans said about this album:

From the first time I heard “Love Song”, I knew Sara Bareilles was just the kind of singer for whom I’d been searching.

Sara’s voice is strong, catchy and soulful at the same time. I frantically tried to learn the lyrics to the songs. My favorite – “Between the Lines”.

Little Voice by Sara Bareilles amazes me. The songs are fantastic. She has worlds of talent and I love every minute of this CD.

Flobots are an American hip hop group from Denver, Colorado, formed in 2000 by Jamie Laurie, who has been the only constant member. To date, they have released three albums (counting Onomatopoeia) and one EP. Flobots found mainstream success with its major label debut Fight with Tools (2007), featuring the single “Handlebars”, which became a popular hit on Modern Rock radio in April 2008.

Though the official name of the band is Flobots, they are often referred to as The Flobots, sometimes even by the band members themselves.

Now head to their hottest album Fight With Tools.

11. We Are Winning

Fight with Tools is the second full album (counting the 2001 independently released Onomatopoeia) by Flobots released in October 2007 and re-released on May 20, 2008. It features the single “Handlebars”, which became a popular hit on Modern Rock radio the following April. In the week of June 7, 2008 the album jumped on the Billboard 200 chart 168 places and peaked at #15.

What the artist said about their album? Let’s take a look:

2007 was a good year for the Flobots. We played Red Rocks, sold out our CD release show, charted on CMJ, and even had our album listed in Rolling Stone Magazine. Four days before the year ended, we were voted first place in the KTCL Hometown for the Holidays contest. As 2007 closed, we wondered if there was any way 2008 could top it. “In only two months, the answer seems to be pretty clear. On January 26th, Denver’s KTCL put “Handlebars” in regular rotation. In the weeks following, Fight With Tools began outselling major national acts at local record stores. Word of mouth spread to California and attracted the attention of The Agency Group, who quickly added us to their roster of national hip-hop groups and punk bands. Durin
