Product Description
The long-awaited songbook of poems and lyrics, penned by one of the most acclaimed music artists of her time, Alicia Keys, is finally here for her throngs of fans. When she burst onto the scene, Alicia's years of intensive classical piano study and musical schooling paid off with over 12 million copies of her two albums sold, a huge international fan base, and an arena tour with female musical contemporaries, Beyoncé and Missy Elliot. Her talent has been rewarded with nine Grammy Awards (including Best New Artist), four American Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, a Billboard Award, and two Soul Train Awards.
Though Alicia has been very vocal through her career, there were always "delicate thoughts" that she never before imagined she'd share with anyone else-until now. Alicia Keys opens the journals and notebooks that she has kept throughout her life, documenting her growth as a person, a woman, and an artist, and reveals her heart to her fans in return for all the love they have shown to her and her music.

 The Soul of Alicia Keys... November 7, 2004

I have been looking forward to the release of this book, and I have to say that I was one of the first people in the bookstore when this book came out. It was WELL worth the wait. You can really relate to and feel all the emotion that Alicia put into her poems and lyrics. With the explainations of what she was going through at the time and the way she put her words together, you almost feel as if you are there with her. This book is worth every penny I paid for it. This book grabs you in right at the introduction. In this book, she lets you into her most personal and private thoughts & feelings. You think you know, but you have no idea... This is the real Diary of Alicia Keys.
As soon as you finish reading this review, add this book to your cart, and click "buy".

Alicia Keys is the best female artist out there today. She is pure talent. She's not like most female artists that shake their butts with little to nothing on to sell records. She doesn't try to be something she's not and she does so much to help those in need. She's so deep and everything in this book and writes about in general I think everyone can relate to. And for the record, Beyonce can't hold a match to Alicia. Alicia blows Beyonce out the water.

ALICIA LETS YOU INTO HER INNERMOST THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS. SHE IS SO GENUINE. TEARS FOR WATER IS ALICIA HERSELF IN BOOKFORM.
I ENJOYED THE BOOK FOR MANY REASONS. I COULD DEFINITELY RELATE TO ALOT OF THE POEMS. I LOVE HOW SHE LETS YOU KNOW WHERE SHE WAS IN LIFE WHEN SHE WROTE SOME OF THE POEMS, THUS GIVING YOU A BETTER UNDERSTANDING. THIS IS A BOOK I WILL KEEP AND READ THROUGHOUT THE MANY STAGES OF MY LIFE FOR GUIDANCE.
Nice job Alicia! November 7, 2004

This book is wonderful. It brings you inside the mind of Alicia and connects you with her thoughts. Her words are words that we all can relate to whether young or old and she expresses her feelings so clearly. I recommend this book to everyone. I know that you will enjoy it.
