LA Songs

Let me know your thoughts. Which ones should I be congratulated for including; what omissions should have me run out of town. You guys know more about music than I ever will, so give me some feedback. Should we rank at least the top five? Do we need to include Randy Newman?

There's a song by Bad Religion called "Los Angeles is Burning". And there's that Tupac song I mentioned. "Californication" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers is pretty much about LA as well. "Paradise City" by Guns N' Roses. I'm sure there's plenty more.

Yes, there are hundreds of them - I'm trying to do ten and couldn't do it. I didn't think californication was more deserving, than the songs listed, or solely representative of a musical style, but if it's voted in by some of you over another song, that's fine (Unless you were trying to bounce Kool & the Gang)Paradise City didn't get considered because I already had welcome tot he jungle. I don't know LA is burning, but under the circumstances (LA has been burning)I probably would have left that one out for now.
