One of the reasons I love this song so much
is that the collaboration of Alicia Keys & John Mayer
They both are a very talented and impressive artists
and I love both of their works so much
This song is a perfect which has both of their amazing characters
The drums and bass line is very "John Mayer" style
and with Alicia Keys voice, this song is filled with life and soul
Her performance gave the gloominess to this song
The accents in chorus is the cherry on the top
which goes closely with the melody
and the whole beat of the song is very lay back and loose
that enhanced the whole emotion of the song perfectly
I think that's a really good sample of collaboration
to bring both characters together and lift the song!!
