    Empire State of Mind Part II by Alicia Keys.
    Ooohh New York x2
    Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
    Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
    If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
    Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway
    Even if it aint all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
    Baby, I'm from New York
    Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
    There's nothing 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 Yoooork!
    On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
    Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
    Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
    Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge
    I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
    Baby, I'm from New York
    Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
    There's nothing you can't do
    Now you're in New York
    These street will make you feel brand new
    Big lights will inspire you
    Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!
    One hand in the air for the big city,
    Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
    No place in the world that can compare
    Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    In New York
    Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
    There's nothing 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 Yoooork!

    I reminds me of a love story I had in New York with a girl....
    I never saw her anymore....
    We used to listen to this song together in Times Square!
    This song brings tears to my eyes....

    @aldy32 hey there! i'm a music student and i'm teaching saxophone, clarinet and flute and i can say, that the thing you call "talent" is MORE than 10% what makes a musician , that's sure!
    practise and hard work are very important (you won't be a good musician without it), but if you don't have got (any) "talent", practise and hard work won't bring you anywhere -
