Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum |
I'm looking at sorting an 'America' playlist and would like some tunes that refer to American places. List your favourite songs that have American place names in their titles. I'll start:
Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
(PS no group names, so Boston and America will be disqualified  ) |

Its a chilled one but Kentucky by the everly brothers. ORRRRR for a slightly moderner (is that even a word?) twist Billie Joe Armstrong from Green day and Norah Jones covered it... A whole. Album infact, called foreverly. So punny.  |

That Shawn Colvin song... "Wichita skyline" https://youtu.be/YXXYivFr7hU
Bit depressing but Shawn has a great evocative nuanced intonation to her voice.
