bretb Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 About a year and a half ago I made a CD as a wedding gift for a friend and his wife who live in California. The songs aren't all about California, but I thought they fit the couple and captured the "California Spirit". 01. LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk is Playing at My House "I bought fifteen cases for my house" 02. Matthew Sweet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

m_thomp Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 The Thrills - So Much for the City is pretty much a California concept album... Santa Cruz (You're Not That Far), Big Sur, Hollywood Kids, etc. If you like a meat and potatoes rock crossed with a Byrds-style jangle, then it may suit. I never said it was any good though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hate New York CityIt's cold and it's dampAnd all the people dressed like monkeysLet's leave Chicago to the EskimosThat town's a little bit too ruggedFor you and me you bad girl Rollin' down the Imperial HighwayWith a big nasty redhead at my sideSanta Ana winds blowin' hot from the northAnd we was born to ride Roll down the window put down the topCrank up the Beach Boys babyDon't let the music stopWe're gonna ride it till we just can't ride it no more From the South Bay to the ValleyFrom the West Side to the East SideEverybody's very happy'Cause the sun is shining all the timeLooks like another perfect day I love L.A. (We love it)I love L.A. (We love it) Look at that mountainLook at those treesLook at that bum over there, manHe's down on his kneesLook at these womenThere ain't nothin' like 'em nowhere Century Boulevard (We love it)Victory Boulevard (We love it)Santa Monica Boulevard (We love it)Sixth Street (We love it, we love it) I love L.A.I love L.A.(We love it) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
