We were experimenting with a lot of keyboards and sounds and styles of recording, and we were all about breaking boundaries and writing things in new ways.”įans who sign up for Keys’ “The Vault” will get unlimited access to a variety of items, including photos, videos, diaries, and other special offerings.
Production was handled primarily by Keys, Kerry Brothers Jr., Jack Splash, and Linda Perry, with a guest contribution. Recording sessions for the album took place at various recording studios from 2005 until 2007. But this one really started to create the sound that ‘As I Am’ has. As I Am is the third studio album by American singer and songwriter Alicia Keys. “Maybe it was the second song, the first one had a whole Egyptian vibe, I’ll play that for you one day too. “This is one of the very first songs I came back from Egypt and wrote,” she proclaims. “When you were gone, did you think of me? / Now you’re back putting on this act / That I was always in your heart.” Keys’ combination of elegant songcraft and raw attitude would give hits like Fallin’ (2001) and No One (2007) ample. To commemorate the release of ‘As I Am,’ Keys unwraps the never-heard-before song, “When You Were Gone.” On the funky, at times mellow track, the singer, songwriter, and musician passionately shares her bleeding love for a distant Beau. The artist born Alicia Augello Cook in 1981 was classically trained but a product of the streets, raised by a single mother in a rough Hell’s Kitchen neighbourhood from which piano-playing offered sanctuary.
