Critical reception[]
In his review of Keys' concert at the Orpheum Theatre, James Sullivan from SFGate commented that Keys "has a self-confidence that's absolute" and "there's no doubt that Keys wants the spotlight".[4] He further commented that "her voice is undeniably a beautiful thing" and found that during a performance of Fallin', Keys "found a powerful middle ground between her solo ruminations and her frenzied, scale-shredding vocal athleticism".[4]
