Jay-Z - Empire State of Mind (feat Alicia Keys)
 

One word, Amazing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm61weFrK4c
One of the best songs of 2009

I keep calling this New York:joker:

It's an anthem alright, favourite song of 09 so far.....no actually wait that's warriors dance...

Amazing song, unfortunately its just about new york so it restricts itself somewhat

I really cannot see what is good about Jay Z. All his songs sound the same to me. Droopy the Dog has more pazzaz to his voice than Jay Z.

its better than Run This Town :thumbs:

I don't like it.

Hate it

The best of Jay-Z defo!

It'd be nothing without Alicia Keys really. :\
but I do like it. I think it's a grower.

Honestly, i didn't like Jay-Z even hated him but he has prove me wrong that was a excellent song!

It would be nothing without Jay-Z i presume you mean? i love her but he ripped it!

Jay z makes that song


legend.

I love this song. The VMAs performance was brilliant.
I do agree though that Alicia Keys makes the song.

YAY!
Love it!
:hello:
And I disagree about the Alicia Keys comment, because Jay-Z preformed this on Jonathan Ross without Keys but with another woman singing her part and it was equally as good, if not better.
:thumbs:

goes straight in at 15 on the UK charts

should get higher and higher

Yeah the replacement woman was good - but I guess I meant that her part of the song 'makes it', if that makes sense.

I missed that, must have a look on YT. Is she famous or is it like a backing singer filling in?

Didn't recognise her at all.
I think she's probbly just one of his backing singers or something.
She was very good tho.
