I'm not a devotee of either Mr. Carter or Ms. Keys, but boy did I dig this song when it first came out. It's a spine-tingler for me when Keys breaks in with her voice and I still marvel at the cadence and composition of the lyrics.
This post feels very timely to me considering my latest post! Hope you don't mind me dropping it here! : D
I absolutely love this track so much, or at least I did til I visited NYC in April where you hear this song several times a day, often from multiple sources, overlapping each other at the same time!
I feel very sorry for the folks who work in the Times Square/Central Park area who are subjected to it day in day out. It's almost like a Groundhog Day scenario - Empire State of Mind instead of I Got You Babe!
