In class, we watched a movie about global warming and it's really depressing because they said Manhattan and the world trade center will be underwater if Greenland melts from pollution and this song reminded me of that.
i havent went to usa yet but if i can make it there i'll go to new york first and im gonna play this song on my mp3 when coming out from new york airport :)

So many haters up in here lmao...get over it jayz is the bomb hate him or love him he's still on ya mind AND comments bout him still taken up ya time jealous bytchs
This vesion is rubbish, Jay z has completely ruined the song, Alicia Keys is brilliant singer and doesn't need Jay Z bragging about himself through her whole song. This is just my opinion.
@3riny99 This version? Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind came BEFORE Empire State of Mind Part 2, hence the part 2. There would never be an Empire State of Mind Part 2 without this song, and it wouldn't really make sense to have a song BY JAY-Z and have him not rap. Like seriously? Think before you write.
I prefer the one without Jay-Z. It seems more meaningful and not so jibber-jabberish. Not trying to criticize in a harmful way, just stating my opinion.
Part 2 has more depth and doesn't include Jay Z simply bragging about his rep and possessions throughout the whole song. I prefer Alicia's as it's more an anthem for the city itself and less about her personal fame and glory, like Jay Z's version is =/
Dunno wether it just my computer but it stopped playin @ 2:54 and wouldn't play after that time! It kept playin b4 that but every time it got 2 2:54 it stopped!
first of all he need to check this song cause idk if he was drunk or not cause jeuse should be id lord and savior and that does no give him a right to come talk bad about jesus like that i live iin brooklyn new york i like this song but stiil dont talk about jesus like that i love new york so muck i was born here lets here t for new york!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I LOVE NEW YORK!
I don't think he is dissing the church or Jesus... I think he is commenting on the way that people think... and act when they get "TOO" much of "New York"... If you listen it starts with... Life is blinding... girls need blinders... or they can step out of line quickly... One verse bringing up New York... the other telling the pitfalls of life in New York
sooooooo cool song!!! I like so much
