"Empire State Of Mind" Has The Staying Power Of Sinatra's "New York"...

Start spreading the news...these streets will make you feel brand new, these lights will inspire you.

Jay-z and Alicia Keys crank out a classic, "Empire State of Mind." Not only do I blast the tune on my iPod and get a little beat in my step, I do this in very crowded areas. And yes, it is my ringtone.

The quality of the lyrics and the bigger-than-life style make "Empire State of Mind" the new "New York." This newest soundtrack to a New Yorker's life will undoubtedly stand the test of time; a classic in the making.

Have a listen. Because I know you want to.
