Rats! Foiled Again



I consider myself to be a fairly well-educated and intelligent person, and have no particular affinity for rodents or Kia vehicles. And I'm definitely not the kind of person that loves television commercials; more often than not I start flipping the channels as soon as the commercials come on. So can anyone explain to me why, whenever this commercial comes on, I absolutely CANNOT look away?

Jay-Z - Empire State Of Mind Ft. Alicia Keys (Official Music Video)



It's really frustrating when my pet peeves get in the way of my enjoyment of something. I heard this song many times and really liked it. But then today I noticed that at several points throughout the song, Alicia Keys sings "concrete jungle where dreams are made of." Now that's the only thing I can focus on.

You just can't do that to the English language. Not even if you're Alicia Keys.
