This is one of my favorite duets of all time. The kind that makes you stop and think. As vocals go, these two artists play off eachother very well and the lyrics are the type you wish you came up with for that special someone. If you haven't heard it before, try tracking it down. For extra fun, sing it outloud in front of a mirror when no one is looking.
~Ai no Shinobi
If I Ain't Got You (remix)
Alicia Keys featuring Usher
(Alicia)
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yea
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things define what's within
And I've been there before, but that life's a bore
So full of the superficial
(Alicia-Chorus)
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing if I ain't got you, yea
(Usher)
Now Some people search for a fountain
The Promise is forever young
Some people need (both) three dozen roses
And that's the only way you prove you love them
(listen baby-Alicia)
(both)
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me
(Usher)
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, babe
If I ain't got you, baby
(both)
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing if I ain't got you you you
(Both)
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing if I ain't got you, yea
I ain't got you with me, baby
Said nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me, baby
