I grew up in a small village and dreamed of the big city, I finally made it to the city of Manchester UK It was normal to everyone else but to me it was inspiring big lights everywhere. As years went on, it's now become the norm but I'll never forget the times when I dreamed of this ❤
My mum grew up in a communist country and she told me this song reminds her how she felt when she moved to London, she always said people born in the west have no idea how lucky they are
This song was high in the charts when I first started going out with my high school boyfriend. In Ireland, our cities are small but that time of my life felt so exciting and new. We are both now in our late 20s and married to different people but still friends. Every time I hear this song I go straight back to that time, living life and feeling grown up with my first love ❤️
Que história linda! No caminho que percorremos, sempre deixamos boas histórias de amor, amizade e lembranças que aquecem o coração! Bençãos de Deus para você e sua família! 😊🌷
I love this song I play it over and over I'm disabled I always wanted to travel but can't cuz of health reasons but when I listen to this song it makes me feel great inside and feel like I had a trip to new York thank you so much for the trip Alicia
This reminds me of my spring break trip to New York City when I was twelve. I went to visit my uncle and he showed me all sorts of amazing places in that city. I have to say, there's few things that can top Times Square at night, or standing at the top of the Empire State Building and gazing down at the streets from high above. I haven't been back there since, and I'm not sure I'd want to live there, but I would _love_ to visit New York again. There's so much I still haven't seen!
I’m a New York Giants fan and 4-5 years ago I went to a game, and we won. At the end, they played this song. I play this song occasionally to remind me about the great time I had. Go Big Blue!!
Who else is listening this masterpiece in 2022 ? it's still amaziiing !! :') i think about my bff rn bc he went to nyc ^^ i love him :D One day imma take him to new york and kiss him in front of the liberty statue telling him " i love you, and i loved u all my life "
This was my late friends ending funeral song. First time I’ve listened to it since their funeral and all the memories are back yet I’ve never felt so spiritualy connected. I’d like to think they popped to New York before they went to heaven 💙
I went to New York back in 2019 for comic con and it was my first time actually being there. Tbh, I never thought that I would've made it that far. I was hanging around Times Square, done some sightseeing, took some pictures, had some pizza and churros, even rode a ferry, I never rode in the subway trains they had. I even managed to meet Paul Rudd when I was attending the convention. Even though, it was only a once in a lifetime trip, I often thought about going back to New York, never say never. 🗽
Love this original version of the song without Jay Z, it’s just beautiful and inspiring. Though if you do listen to a duo of this song it’s gotta be with Jake singing Making Bacon Pancakes ;)
I always wanted to go to New York, see all the snow tall building pjs and amazing shops, it reminds me of New York in the 90s, I feel like there is grey buildings, subways drawings or writing on the walls, green grass with little dogges
Lots of folks are magnetized by NYC for good reason. It's the center of human culture today. A hodgepodge. To make it there from a humble farflung beginning, what a feat that's going to be. What a dream, indeed.
Wonderful song. Even though more than 10 years have passed, listening to it excites me as if it were the first time. Alicia Keys is amazing, an amazing singer. I'm lucky to have had the chance to hear her live. July 24, 2023 Austin,TX.
The first time I went to New York my dad played this song in the car as we drove into the city I was 8 at the time or that’s the earliest I can remember I remember looking up and seeing all the glowing lights I miss the simpler times of life
Who else remembers this song?
love it!!
Alicia fan! Great voice!💕
Love it
@@YaarTeraUkWala thanks you and happy March 8 Women's day😊
