Alicia Keys is an amazing singer, she amazes me in her song “Teenage Love Affair”. I try to sing to this song, but I can’t even reach such high notes. I sound like a squawking scare crow with rhythm. It amazes me how she does it!

But her voice is not the only thing that sounds great in the song. The music is also cool. Of course her voice over powers it because the music is very subtle. You almost don’t need the music because her voice is so strong. You have to pay great attention to notice how many instruments are going on in the background.

I am sure teenagers love this song because the lyrics match exactly what they do when they are having a “Teenage Love Affair”. I bet this song makes them laugh about how silly they are when they like someone. I love how Alicia says “It is a matter of extreme importance”, Like it is the most important thing on Earth. Because to some teenagers, their boyfriend/ girlfriend is the most important thing in their life right at that moment. But just like in the song title, it is just an affair.

The music video is just another music video. Not good but not bad. Alicia Keys plays a teenager in love and of course they are acting like teenagers. Passing notes, talking on the phone about nothing, and meeting in the same place everyday. It is cute, in a way, but it is tired.

Over all, this is a pretty good song, luckily, you don‘t have to watch the music video to listen to the song. I enjoy listening to it and every time I do, Alicia Keys still amazes me with her dominant vocals. Good song, I definitely recommend it to add to your play list, if you haven’t all ready.

 

Can't wait to get home
Baby dial your number
Can u pick up the phone
Cause I wanna holla
Daydreaming about you all day
In school can't concentrate
Want have your voice in my ear
'Till mama comes and says it's too late
Cause the lights are on outside
Wish there was somewhere to hide
Cause I just don't want to say goodbye
Cause you are my baby baby

Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gunna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

I love our secret meetings
On the 5th floor stair case
I'm gonna give you this letter
Of all the things I can't say
Want you to be my first my last my ending and beginning (yeah)
I wrote your name in my book
Your last name my first
I'm your Mrs.

Cause the lights are on outside
Wish there somewhere to hide
I just don't want to say goodbye
Cause you are my baby baby

Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gunna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

Hey boy
You know I really like being with u
Just hanging out with you is fun

So maybe we can go to first base
Because I feel you
Second base
Want you to feel me too boy
Third base
Better pump the breaks
Oh baby slow down
I gotta go home now

Cause the lights are on outside
Wish there was somewhere to hide
Cause I just don't want to say goodbye
Cause you are my baby baby

Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gunna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

My baby baby
Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gunna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair
