Alicia Keys
When I'm on stage, my interaction with the audience is something that really makes me come alive. It's a feeling like no other. The energy of the crowd fuels something new inside. It reminds me to live in the moment.

Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys
But when I first fell in love with the piano, I knew it was me. I was dying to play.
Alicia Keys
I think it's the ego in us that screws us up.
Alicia Keys
I was just talking to Bono the other day, and he was like, Are you doing shows? I've just been off the road for a month-and-a-half, and he was like, You lucky girl.
Alicia Keys
Early on in my career, I was more closed off in every way. I thought I was protecting myself instead, I was robbing myself of all I could learn and experience.
Alicia Keys
We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring. Who wants to stay the damn same all their life?
Alicia Keys
Fear is not a part of my vocabulary, actually, and I think that it's really made me a much smarter, braver for sure, person.
Alicia Keys
The last thing I want is to walk into my house after a long day and see all the Grammys and awards. It would make me feel weird.
Alicia Keys
I'm very happy with my body.
Alicia Keys
Gangsta rap was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. Gangsta rap didnt exist.
