The video for Alicia Keys' new single 'Teenage Love Affair' made its debut today. Inspired by Spike Lee's movie 'School Daze', the video serves as one of Alicia's best clips to date. The engaging concept captured the essence of the song's lyrical content fantastically. Seeing the stunningly beautiful Alicia get her little choreography on, a rarity, was also nice touch. Great song, even better video.

What do you think of the video?

I can definitely see the School Daze influence! Pretty creative though. I liked consistent theme. Much better than her previous videos from this album.

It's just one of those videos that make you smile. A good vibe that really seems to be missing from videos and entertainment in general these days. Go Alicia!!

Haven't seen school Daze, but I'm curious now.

Loved it. One of the best Alicia videos I think. It's perfect for Spring too. I hope it burns up the charts.
I saw more of a 'Dreamgirls' theme in the talent show sequence. I thought it was neat!

It's very cute, but it could have went with the lyrics a little more. But no complaints. I like it

Great! This video is enjoyable to watch front to ending. I always loved the song! If you don't have "As I Am" it's still in stores great album.

A lil extra: could anyone imagine Alicia being in Dreamgirls instead of Bey? Just a thought....

I love this video I like seeing Alicia let her hair down a bit and have fun with it. Mad cameos in the video to0! Everyone can relate to this song either you remember that feeling or you are going through it! As I Am is going to garner miss keys another gang load of awards and hits!

I love the video. At first I wasn't crazy about the song but it has grown on me. Alicia looks amazing! She is my favorite R&B singer right now.. Love the concept of the video..

I also think she would've done well in Dreamgirls..lol

I agree in that she would have done well in Dreamgirls, but I'm glad she wasn't in it...if anyone gets that lol Beyonce was great in the movie anyway.

Huuuge Alicia Keys fan, loved the video, much better than her previous videos for 'No One' and 'Like You'll Never See Me Again'. And she looks beautiful, as usual.

And I agree with tia, Lesson Learned is an amazing song, best on the album in my opinion (I think releasing Teenage Love Affair over it was a smart move though..)although I'm slightly biased because I'm a huge John Mayer fan lol the two collaborating is just magic!
