.:NO MATTER WHAT:.

LET ME JUST SAY THAT I LOVE THIS NO MATTER WHAT. I AM NOT NUTS ABOUT THE VIDEO AND I EVEN BE SOMEWHAT CONFUSED. THE SONG IS REALLY MOODY AND VULNERABLE AND I AM SOMEWHAT DISAPPOINTED THAT THE VIDEO DID NOT PORTRAY THAT. I IMAGINED THE VIDEO TO BE BLACK AND WHITE. THE FIRST SCENE WOULD BE HER AT A BAR DRINKING AND IN THE MIRROR ABOVE THE BAR SHE SEES HER LOST LOVER EMBRACING SOMEONE ELSE. THE LOVER THEN LEAVES THE CLUB AND JUMPS INTO A CAR. ALICIA THEN FOLLOWS THEM IN A CAB. THE SECOND VERSE YOU SEE HER IN THE LOVER'S APARTMENT WATCHING HIM AND HIS NEW LOVE SLEEPING. SHE WALKS THROUGH THE APARTMENT TOUCH PLACES ON THE WALL WHERE PICTURES OF HER USED TO BE. THE NEXT SCENE, YOU SEE HER IN THE LOVER'S CAR. YA KNOW, SINGIN' AND LYING SO EVER SEXY. SHE THEN PUTS ON THE HEAD LIGHTS, PLUGS IN A SPEAKER AND MIC AND BEGINS TO SING THE LAST HOOK. THE LOVER PEEKS OUT OF HIS BEDROOM WINDOW TO SEE MISS KEYS SINGIN' HER HEART OUT. THE VIDEO WILL THEN END WITH HER RETURNING HOME AND GOING TO BED. NOW TELL ME THAT MY IMAGINARY VIDEO ISN'T BETTER?
