I'm a city boy. I grew up singing "San Francisco (Open Your Golden Gate)" and "I Left My Heart (in San Francisco)" with the San Francisco Boys Chorus. These, however, are the ones I prefer now.

No "Lights" (Journey)?

Whups. I forgot Journey. Maybe it's because I'm still pissed at them for calling the cops on us? 8^)

"come back from san francisco" the magnetic fields

not a well known one, but with the killer and memorable opening line: "come back from san francisco, it can't be all that pretty"
