How about songs with states/cities in the title?
Off the top of my head...
Led Zeppelin - Going To California Ozzy - Old L.A. Tonight Beach Boys? - California Dreamin' (or was that The Mama's & The Papas?

P.S. - "California Dreamin'" was indeed The Mamas & The Papas.
P.P.S. - "Kansas City" was written by Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller & recorded by Wilbert Harrison, Peggy Lee, and plenty of other people. hehe

I saw Ian Hunter perform that song when he played in Ringo Starrs All Star Band a few years ago. The song is "Cleveland Rocks" and was originally from Ian Hunter's solo stuff after leaving Mott the Hoople.

I didn't think anybody else knew anything about Ian Hunter's solo work. It's some of my favorite music.
"All Of The Good Ones Are Taken" was a song I really loved and I REALLY loved "Captain Void And The Video Jets". I'm always amazed at how much everybody in here knows about music.

LOL, I thought about that exact same song the other day when we began doing these, but I didn't write it since we were only dealing with cities & states at the time. The band was called The Vapors though, for what it's worth.

Now I got classic 80's tunes in my head thanks to Calico Jack and 21toesucker... "The rains down in Africa..." I think I'm going to play Vice City now!

I had that song stuck in my head for weeks after the Night Panda skit in Jackass the Movie.
