Wow. An AI video with production values. That doesn’t happen very often when your name isn’t Carrie or Kelly. I guess that Chris sad “No Way” to being in a video made with the standard $50 budget.
I like how they had Jordin “playing” the piano at the beginning of the video. You have to admire a well organized PR plan. See! She tinkles on the piano. She’s JUST like Alicia. Re-inforce it by having Chris actually play the piano at the end and you are golden.
Nicely done and plotted video. It’s sure to be a hit.
Jordin and Chris look like they could be brother and sister. Don’t really care for this song. Really just from the middle on because it just seems to be about who can out sing who.
With that I’m sure this video is going to be a huge hit, as will this song. It should help Jordin get closer to that 1 mil mark. With two hits off an album they might be able to release one more. I guess it will be a wait and see with her sales. I have a feeling though she will pull it out in the end.
Nice video Jordan if she does hit the 1 million mark she better send a big thank you to Chris Brown. Jordan does have a pleasent voice just which direction is she going to take a Beyonce mini-me or her own sound to identify her?
I would not be surprised if the cd did hit 1 million and Jordan becomes a nice star . The only complaint the media had was ” the lowest opening numbers” nomatter how well the cd does. I am not really into her voice just another teen singer for me right now.
I am not a Jordin fan but I like this song and video. TPTB are making sure she makes it and seem to be shelling out the cash. Funny how when your songs are played on radio - you sell downloads. The manipulations continues…. but good for Jordin. I am happy for her.
Anyone else notice the product placement of Mark Cosmetics?
That’s true. I also suspect that the car was a product placement as well. Suddenly, in the middle of the video, we began focusing on it. And why was she driving? Didn’t he come over to her place? I’m not prepared to watch it again to figure it out.
I disagree with some of you guys here. I LOVE THE VIDEO! Plus the song. I’m not much of a Jordin fan when it comes to her records, especially tattoo, but this song I really like.
i really really liked the video and i love the song. i was wondering what way they were going to go with the song: serious or light hearted. this video is serious. light hearted what have had them in costumes like a mermaid or astronaut. (get it - no air) anyways, i thought it was funny that jordin didn’t stand up staight when chris was near her. she would have towered him. so the director made sure she leaned against the doorway. and i thought she looked beautiful!
The song is OK, I’m a babyboomer so it didn’t do anything for me. But it would appeal to the teen crowd.
Jordin is good eye candy, very pretty, I’m not sold on her as a top-notch singer…she has a long way to go.
About product placement: The companys many times will “pay” to have their products in a video. To offset cost.
This song has nearly gotten to the top twenty of the Hot 100 with nearly no promotion, and Tattoo still substantially popular. Now with teh video and Tattoo dying down this song is sure to be huge. Like I’ve already said, I’m making the prediction this will reach #2 and tie Since U Been Gone’s peak as the highest peaking non first AI single they release.
By the way the video is MILES better than Tattoo. I figured with Chris Brown in it the production values would be much higher, and the definitely were. i have to say I really like the end where they’re facing each other and belting the song out. I alsdo think this may be the best Jordin’s ever looked, she looks like a star in this video.
the video has been taken down it seems . other links have been as well for copyrighted reasons . it will be on Yahoo again Monday for it’s official premiere.

Anyone else notice the product placement of Mark Cosmetics?
Yes, I did notice. I love Mark.!! I also happen to be a Representative. I don’t know if I can plug myself here, but, here goes…www.youravon.com/ddimaio.
As for the vid, I liked it. I’m not a huge Jordin fan, and the song is ok; however, I do think she’ll do great with it.
Love me some Jordin. I’m afraid I may be adding another Idol to the short list of Idols whose work I’d actually pay for.
Paring Idols in recording projects with established stars is defiitely good marketing. Kelly and Reba, Jordin with Chris Brown, Fantasia/Aretha, and others opening in concert for established stars seems to make for good business all around.

Oh my…I really think they need to separate Jordin from the pros. Chris Brown sounds great and Jordin sounds tinny in comparison.
I heard this on the radio yesterday — they played it after Daughtry, so I expect the one-two whammy on the radio for the nxt month or two.

Nice recoverery by her label and 19.
it’s not horrible

She should have kissed him!

Hmmm…good point about the car. I did wonder where she was driving to and what was the point of that scene.
ETA: I noticed Blackberry was featured too.
Jordin is adorable, SHe can sing. She had loads of personality on idol. So why is she so boring now? Sigh.

I worried about her driving in the emotional state she was in, clutching her hair and all. Didn’t look safe to me. ;)
This video is light years better than the one they put out for Tattoo.
I love the song but the video is just OK.
Not bad, not bad at all. They look nice together. I can see that song becoming very popular.

here is another link to watch it now that MJ could use to replace the previous one.

I just put up the new one.
So I guess the Jordin Sparks-Alicia Keys double bill will probably work.

No Air is currently the # 1 song in the most popular Philippine radio station.
The song is very “easy” listening — SAFE as Paula would say.
Love me some Jordin. I’m afraid I may be adding another Idol to the short list of Idols whose work I’d actually pay for.
