SOUL sounds different!

The Element of Freedom (Audio CD)

Customer Review

The last album, I noticed that Alicia a slightly different, actually more in a pop mainstream direction goes ..
This album lacks melodies, heat, soul..die former warm, soulful voice is now verschandelt..bei with echoes and computer "effects" as good as any song pulls Alicia constantly sounds long, but not as before, that it relaxing sounds soulful, but pressed cramped ..
quite apart from the fact that almost no song has a significantly herauszuhörende uniform melody, in part, a beautiful melody on the piano played, but the sung sounds simple after "something" (actually!) or find it constantly rythmus- and speed change instead, the little that "feeling" what has built up, destroy ...
to the texts: the lyrics by Alicia are always limited, of the 16 songs go in 14 songs about that the woman's husband to the court Moor (more plump ..) and how terrible the world is not without "him" would ..etc. etc ... So the lyrics really turn her only more in a circle ..
normally I might think to myself in a song, etc. that it sounds familiar to me because of the melody in this song I thought every time, I know it already, because of the song texts ^^ sad that are so unimaginative ..

Real shame that Alicia Keys has taken such a path, as it has produced real time new soul, a ausergewöhnlichen agree .. :-(
but you siehts indeed it as their changed appearance wurde..früher rasta with hat now smoothed hair (?!?!) with 12cm highheels..aber good ..

such a music I'd rather me of Beyonce, Rihanna, Christina Aguillera and co. expected!
So for ordinary pop, it is certainly not bad, but of Alicia Keys, I would have definitely expected more!
