Alicia’s Musical Commentary

The video for the new Alicia Keys single, “Un-thinkable (I’m Ready),” is not what I was expecting.

But I likey, anyway.

And I’m happy Keys has released something – I know she’s been touring, but c’mon...girlfriend was keeping us waiting.

The video is a doozy: It jumps around freely from the 1950s to the present day and everything in between, and features Keys’ character falling for Chad Michael Murray’s (pictured here with the singer), only to face the scorn of relatives and neighbors.

This reportedly was a way to “capture…the torment and turmoil of a forbidden love that crosses racial and family ties” and “question…whether or not true love really conquers all.”

Again – I likey.
