For my musical friends, an exercise.
Aug. 6th, 2002 06:09 pmMost of you know at this point that I went to california. I think you ALL Know that I'm a big old music fan. So. I'm making a mix of songs that remind me of california. So, take a look and see if you can add
X: Los Angeles
Mama's and the Papa's: California Dreaming
Biggie: Going Back to Cali
Tupac: California Love
DK: California Uber Alles
Eagles: Hotel California.
Warren Zevon: Desperadoes Under the Eaves
Same: Carmelita. Because I saw alvarado street, and there is apparently a pioneer chicken stand.
Minutemen: History Lesson Part II
Circle Jerks: Century City
Mama's...: San Francisco
Sublime: Garden Grove. Or any of their songs...they all remind me of long beach. Maybe because THEY KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT....
Sublime: What I got. Because I like it.
These are what I can remember. Please contribute.

Re: *bounce*
Date: 2002-08-06 07:24 pm (UTC)i'd forgotten that one s:)
i know i messed up the title, but that's the only line i seem to remember. very breathy voice, so it came out sounding more like "send me picture postcards from El *breath* Heeeeeeey" at the end of the song. song's about 2, maybe three years old. *frustrates*
am i the only person who remembers this song?
