...did i mention there won't be a song to touch this, this year? there seriously isn't gonna be a better song. i don't need no psychic nor a phony like miss cleo to tell me this! alicia's album is pure F I R E and out of 14 tracks there's one that i don't listen to. classic.

this song already is changing lives and making people think! I hear on youtube a lot and in real life sometimes that, "this song makes you think about your life..." and "it makes me want to change and never take anything for granted."

now that's soul. when it touches you deep, deep down and won't let go.

for all those living under a rock, this song is about loving someone like it's the last time you'll see them. a great thing to say, but how many of us will actually and actively do this? follow through?

not enough. and that's ok! it's the human condition to take for granted things in your life, daily; friends, lovers, family, mothers, dogs and cats; hell, even ex's!

but this song is about looking at what things mean to you and what's most important. it's like a lullaby w/ a back beat! just listen to the production. i can listen to it all day and i really don't get tired of it much. alicia has helped produce a bunch of bangers; girlfriend, how come you don't call me, mr. man (2001), you don't know my name, diary, slow down, if i ain't got you, samsonite man, nobody not really, the interlude (on the album) (2003), unbreakable, every little bit hurts (2005) and finally, no one, superwoman, sure looks good to me, the thing about love, lessons learned and finally, this masterpiece. it's definitely her best track yet and i don't see her getting much better than now. but has any of her main albums ever disappointed? hardly, for the fans!

6.25 stars.

When it comes down to it, Alicia Keys really does know how to conjure some beautiful songs. After the souful success of No One from As I Am, her fourth album, she shows absolutely no signs of ending her reign in R&B. Her latest single, Like You'll Never See Me Again, the second single from that album shows a softer side from her voice that remains strong from the soul, and still shows a pitch in her voice that has grown with her style in writing. I really think this one follows the way No One helped make As I Am shine. This track works better than anything from wannabe artists like Fantasia or Jordan Sparks. I definitely know Alicia really will make her next single just as good as this one.

Song: B+
