Was always bang up to date with cool new music. Recently had a reassuring surge of pride upon discovering a great new track on the car radio; excitedly told friends about it. Turns out it was Empire State of Mind by Jay Z & Alicia Keys, which Wikipedia tells me was a hit in 2009.

@davidjarman @fesshole which they ripped off from the original artist, and then had the original track kicked off YouTube. You can still find it sometimes.
