London is worlds most important city the capital of the world where everyone rich celebrity lives in the most visited city in the world why not New York. America not Britain is most famous country in the world .

However the most famous city is London.What Makes this city so desirable to others even on Bollywood they had a song set in the London bride tower bridge as they dancing their I guess cause we colnized India so they more about the Uk but in somewhere like China or Philippines ,South Korea , Japan America is more well known .

London is not even the biggest city in Europe Istanbul is I know it is not fully in Europe home of Byzantine and ithe and Ottoman empire . it is one most visted cities in the world however it is tourist place not a financial city . The biggest city in the world as well having biggest economy of any city is Tokyo which is holding this year's olympics why London why not Tokyo there loads others I could name Dubai , Shanghai ,Bejing , Los Angeles Berlin , Moscow Paris, Hong Kong , Las Vegas , Sydney , Seoul ,Rome Barcelona. But they will never come close to London never why can't New York compete with London

I guess cause as I said London is the more important city America has a million other important cities we only have one London.

On songs hear about London you will hear Chicago , San Francisco and Washington Dc as well New York but a British artist will only sing about London

However sometimes it can feel like the Uk is not relevant apart from London the rest of the country has no attractions like if I'm bored in the school holidays going on trip to the country is the boring not same as America where it is far more dangerous and exciting where you explore so much and plus their landscapes are way better.

I know I'm going on but still I want to know what you think about London as whole and about being capital the world.

Dont be daft, London is not the 'capital of the world' and the US is not 'the most famous country in the world' either! How can any country be 'more famous' than any other and where exactly did you read that London is the worlds capital?

I think you need to read up on some history. What on earth are they teaching you in your school?

You need to listen to a wider variety of music, there are plenty of songs set in other parts of the UK. Ferry cross the Mersey....Scarborough Fair etc.
AFAIK, the world doesn't have a capital. so pick your own

Why is London the capital of the world and not somewhere else? Because it just is. That's all there is to it.

And America is NOT the most famous country in the world. It just thinks it is.

London is the hub of England and England is the center of the universe.
