Reply #6: "An Open Letter To NYC" by the Beastie Boys was sort of a tribute [View All]

[flvegan]

After 9/11. It's off their "To the 5 Boroughs" CD.

Lyric sample:

I see you're still strong after all that's gone on

Life long we dedicate this song

Just a little something to show some respect

To the city that blends and mends and tests

Since 911 we're still livin'

And lovin' life we've been given

Ain't nothing gonna take that away from us

Were lookin' pretty and gritty 'cause in the city we trust

Dear New York I know a lot has changed

2 towers down but you're still in the game

Home to many rejecting know one

Accepting peoples of all places, wherever they're from
