...to Empire State Of Mind a.k.a New York.
Yes, it's been on repeat since Friday. Yes, I'm still on it. And yes, Duh Roads is ready to kill me for having it on loop all day today. Ha. Ha. Ha. Am. Not. Stopping. Full steam ahead, boys and girls! Full steam ahead. *grin*

"New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothin' you can't do, now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all lookin' pretty
No place in the world that could compare
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say "Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah."

Watch it.

(Time Stamps: 3:44s/4:08s/4:17s) Talented or not, Jay-Z sure is one lucky man.
