While i don't disagree that they are, in fact, Pop musicians, this is R&B baby! Rhythm and freaking Blues, and they absolutely smashed it! Pop would be more "produced", more danceable, and more of a product ( which isn't a bad thing ), but there's a distinction to be made and i think it's very important to not confuse the two.

Alicia and John are among a few artists in the early 2000s era that have elevated themselves to all-time greats with all time-classic songs.

She has none on and at first I was like Damn. But after I saw her her Soul and Voice she went to prove to Young Girl's out there you do t git to be a Whore bag Slut like No talent Katie Perry who can't Sing live. And that Man Beast Beyonce who even lip sync The National Anthem, LOL like WTF does that but that fake bitch. There all Studio fake Bitches. Just like 2PAC said about the Studio Gangsta. She's even more beautiful with No make-up and what a voice and you can tell she loves and believes in God which she has Said. Which is why her Career has not exploded any Bigger. Cuz she would t sell her Soul. A lot of you don't know the sick Shit and rules and things you got to do and pay to be a Huge Star.

Just love this so much.. how lucky those people to see this union of musical genius live it's unique and timeless ❤

[@Yoga-Gal108]

This is one of the best live performances I've ever seen, and there is so much to love about it, most of which has already been stated in other comments. One of my favorite parts is at around 3:30, That smile on the young guy's face standing on a stage in NYC between these two musical giants singing to each other is simply priceless! What an experience! Then fast-forward to about 5:48 when Alicia starts singing Gravity...John turns and looks at the other musicians like friends, it's just so great. I think the one striking thing about this performance is the energy, humility, mutual respect, and friendship vibe on the stage. It's truly awesome!

[@mattc6147]

This is a damn masterpiece. I come back to this every few months to watch and still am so impressed. Alicia's voice is like bottled diamonds, she contains one of the most beautiful voices on earth and I'm glad her passion is shared with us all.

I'm an old man. Doing a lot of thinking about how fast life passes by and how temporary our lives are. Every now and then the right people come together at the right time and create a few moments that are so perfect. I am so lucky to be alive during the time of KZbin. Any time that I'm feeling down, I can click on a special video like this and be instantly transported to a few perfect moments, where all my cares and worries just float away.

[@tjk21504]

True, but you can't deny how shallow the music scene as a whole has become. I don't wanna single anyone out, but we live in a world where Cardi B won a Grammy. There's hundreds of rappers out there with more depth and message behind their lyrics. To me, if someone can't appreciate the magic that happened on this stage between John and Alicia, then you've either never played live music a day in your life, or you don't have an ear for all the subtle nuances in the music before you. The band went seamlessly from her song, to his, back to hers. And the lyrics for the two, sounds like he wrote Gravity in response to her song. It's a full circle mindfuck lol

@Kilo Mintoni sucking corporate ass gets you money, but theres no question he is talented at playing music though. Seems like you're focusing on the wrong aspects of music when theres 3 people who actually play their instruments on stage performing live. It was free form. not a basic syncopated corporate song and dance performance you normally see.
