Tokio Hotel came to our office today, and even though they spell Tokyo incorrectly (well, the German way), it got us thinking about songs with cities in their titles. Therefore this week’s Rock List is an ode to tracks that serve as homages to big metropolises, small towns and other places you can find on a map. Let us know your favorites, and on Monday we’ll count up the picks. Before you break out your atlases, here’s a few to get you started:
Nirvana – “Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle”
Tom Waits – “I Wish I Was in New Orleans (In the Ninth Ward)”
Madonna – “I Love New York”
KISS – “Detroit Rock City”
The Clash – “The Guns of Brixton”
