If you Could match a city(International or National acceptable) with a song, what would the song be?
I'm cerious, because of certain song... I always think of certain cities...
Heres some I think, some songs really stand out in my mind.
Here are some I think of:
Los Angeles- Ritmo de la Noche (Mystic)
Paris- City of Blinding Lights (U2) (due to the Devil wears Prada :P)
City of Blinding lights reminds me of various cities like- NYC, Chicago, LA, Seattle, Miami, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Atlanta, and San Francisco.
and Thats all I can think of now...and YES i know City of blinding lights is about New York but still... never specifically said so
Opinions?
nothing is stupid in this thread, you can DISAGREE, but Music is all opinion, so no one has ground for calling some else's Idea stupid.
You can mention as many or as little cities as you please.
Might be obvious. Garth Brooks-Baton Rouge, for what else, Baton Rouge.
Although I love hearing "Louisiana Saturday Night" - Alabama - in LSU's Tiger Stadium before the football games.
Honorable Mentions:
Twilight Zone Theme Song (Kudos to our neighbor of Binghamton for giving us Rod Serling, the show's creator)
Bowling For Soup, "1985"
"The Office" Theme Song
OK this is fun, I got a bunch. Most are pretty obvious some a little less so. I tried to give the artist as well but some have been recorded so many times (e.g. Sweet Home Chicago) I just gave the original composer. NYC and LA were hard cuz there are so many...
