New York's own Alicia Keys will be on top of the world as her songs "Girl On Fire" and "Empire State Of Mind" are played during the Empire State light show. Alicia Keys is "a proud New Yorker," as she makes her mark in the New York skyline.

Keys expressed her excitement about making her mark in history, saying, "The Empire State Building has always been a symbol of what's possible in New York." Keys continues, "and all the dreams that can come true in this city that never sleeps. I'm so excited to unveil the new tower lights that are going to illuminate the city below like never before-shining bright with inspiration. As a proud New Yorker, I'm so honored and humbled to be a little part of its history."

According to the press release, the Philips Color Kinetic lighting system, will allow "customized light capabilities from a palette of over 16 million colors in limitless combinations along with effects previously not possible such as ripples, cross-fades, sparkles, chasers, sweeps, strobes and bursts. In addition to greater control and management of the lighting, the new computerized system will deliver superior light and vibrancy levels in real-time, unlike the previous floodlights."

Sounds like fun!!!
