I've finally listened to R. Kelly's Gotham City song from the B&R soundtrack. And now I've found these two music videos for two versions of the song.

The lyrics for the original song seem like Gotham can move on without needing Batman.
I like how Kelly "took this remix and rearranged it" for the second video, with shots of Batman and the Batmobile. :D
But I don't quite see how the ghetto life has anything to do with the Batman mythos. :-\
The soundtrack actually went platinum so much of the film's spin off merchandise did quite well.

So what you're saying is that it's a good anthem for The Dark Knight Rises?

It might've been if it never hinted Blake was going to become Batman.

True, so we'll just say it's an anthem for the 8 years Bruce took off.

Considering that eight year gap was based on false pretenses which eventually backfired, the song doesn't deserve to be associated with such ignominy.
