A Lots Of Songs
And even though Martin didn't produce the entire lot of songs here, his sophisticated and mostly subtle way with strings, keyboards, and multi-track guitars is in evidence throughout. Adding to the fun are additional highlights like the updated surf cut 'Sister Golden Hair' and ingenious McCartney -esque pop like 'Only in Your Heart' and 'Daisy.

Eleven songs that name check at least 11 — and sometimes several dozen — cities.
I’m a list guy. After (coming up on) nine years of doing a website that’s almost entirely lists, I think I’ve earned that distinction. So I present songs that are list-based not to bury them but to praise them. List songs are cool. It’s a beautiful and rare paradox of creativity and laziness.
I put together this list of 11 songs that spend most (or at least a good part) of their lyrics just rattling off cities. Some also mention neighborhoods, states, countries, and topographical features, but I just wanted to focus on the cities. I’m not sure why. Sometimes I just set these weird arbitrary rules for myself to make things more challenging, I guess.
Anyway, on to the songs…
11 Country Grammar by Nelly (11 cities)
I included Nelly on the list instead of Bob Dylan’s Wanted Man, which also name checks 11 cities. Know your audience, I suppose.
10 Heart of Rock and Roll by Huey Lewis and the News (12 cities)
I’m not sure I can count “Liberty Town” and “Sunset Strip” as cities. But I’ll give him Hollywood, under the assumption he meant the sovereign city West Hollywood and not the Los Angeles neighborhood of regular Hollywood. Huey Lewis will always get the benefit of the doubt from me.
9 All Around the World by Boyz II Men (14 cities)
Random song off the II B-side alert! The song is also the only one on this list that includes a list of women’s names, with 12: Keisha, Kelly, Tonya, Stacy, Mica and LaShaun, Kathy, Trina, Carla, Lisa, Cheri, and Diane. And I suppose that China, Holland, Carolina, Cali and Georgia are all also viable women’s names, although they’re all featured in the geography portion of the lyrics.
8 Kissin’ Time by Kiss (15 cities)
I assumed Kissin’ Time would be one of those Kiss songs I didn’t recognize by title but that I’d recognize when I heard it. That’s not exactly what happened. I’m not certain I’ve ever heard the song before, but I DID recognize the Kiss-iness of the sound. There’s an unmistakable chord they play about eight seconds in.
7 Lighters Up by Lil’ Kim (16 cities)
It’s an odd song, in that the verses almost exclusively focus on praising Brooklyn (or, of course, Lil’ Kim’s sexuality) — but then the choruses name drop a bunch of other cities. Jam ’em in where you can, I guess.
6 L.A. Love by Fergie (22 cities)
Fergie’s travel route in this song takes her from California to New York to London to Brazil to Quebec to Paris to Russia to Venice to L.A. to Brooklyn to the L.A. suburb Hacienda Heights to Vegas to Rio to Tokyo to Australia to Miami to Jamaica — and that’s just in the first 85 seconds. Who knew Fergie was secretly into mileage runs? She’s definitely executive platinum. I bet she’s a pro with the ITA Matrix.
5 April 29, 1992 by Sublime (20 cities)
Virtually all of the cities mentioned are at the end of the song (except their home, Anaheim). I’m not sure how many of the cities mentioned actually rioted after the Rodney King verdict, which is what the song is about — like, Santa Barbara? Big Bear? Salt Lake City? — but they did in Sublime’s world.
4 Jump On It by Sir Mix-a-Lot (27 cities)
There’s precious little discussion about Sir Mix-a-Lot’s underrated songs — most people would no doubt say his contribution to musical history starts and ends with Baby Got Back — but Jump On It is a lot of fun. Also, it was off an album called Return of the Bumpasaurus, which is one of the great album names of all-time.
3 Show Me What You’ve Got by Limp Bizkit (43 cities)
I can only imagine what Googling this song is going to do to the way I’m targeted with ads for the indefinite future. I wasn’t planning to buy JNCO jeans and chain wallets, but Google is sure going to think I want to.
2 Wakko’s America by The Animaniacs (51 cities)
In researching this list and seeing other people’s mentions of songs that list cities, I never saw anyone include Wakko’s America. That’s just madness. Just because it’s from a cartoon doesn’t make it any less of a contender.
1 I’ve Been Everywhere by Hank Snow (and more famously, Johnny Cash) (68 cities)
Alphabetical List Of Music Styles
At least I think it’s 68 cities. I didn’t count Crater Lake because that’s not a city, although Grand Lake and Devil’s Lake are. I assumed Salvador wasn’t short for the country but rather referenced the city; and Washington meant D.C. and not the state. None of that nuance is interesting. It’s a song that mentions a lot of cities. And it was based off a song that referenced even more Australian towns. I wasn’t about to start researching those.

2. California Girls by The Beach Boys
It is said the iconic Beach Boys song California Girls was conceived when Brian Wilson first tried LSD. The song’s lyrics ponder the different qualities of girls around the world from a California teenager’s perspective. The 1965 recording helped define the California Sound
Key lyrics:
Well East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I’m down there
The Mid-West farmer’s daughters really make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

This famous “list song” is Paul Simon’s only number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 as a solo artist. Simon recorded the cheeky tune after divorcing his first wife.
Key lyrics:
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan

Hop on the bus, Gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

5. Subterranean Homesick Blues by Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan created an innovative “music video”—before there was such a thing—for Subterranean Homesick Blues in D. A. Pennebaker’s documentary film Don’t Look Back. While the song plays, Dylan holds up cards that match the quick pace of the lyrics. Some of the cards show intentional spelling errors and puns, as Dylan presents them with a deadpan expression. The breakthrough video is an inspiration for many future MTV musicians.
Key lyrics:
Oh, get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Hang bail, hard to tell
If anything is goin’ to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You’re gonna get hit
But losers, cheaters
Six-time users
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin’ for a new fool
Don’t follow leaders, watch the parkin’ meters

Key lyrics:
The other night I drifted nice continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce, and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jellybean, boom
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam but neck, right, right

7. The Twelve Days of Christmas
The traditional English Christmas carol lists the gifts received by “my true love” on each of the twelve days of Christmas. The song is believed to have origins in France, while the first published account of the song dates to 1780.
Key lyrics:
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me,
A partridge in a pear tree.
On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me,

On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to me, five golden rings
Four calling birds, three french hens,
Two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree

Key lyrics:
It’s an invitation across the nation,
A chance for folks to meet.
There’ll be laughing, singing, and music swinging,
Dancing in the street.
Philadelphia, P.A.
Baltimore and D.C. now.
Can’t forget the Motor City.

10. We Didn’t Start the Fire by Billy Joel
Billy Joel lists over 100 headline events and names in the lyrics of his 1989 hit song, We Didn’t Start the Fire. The avowed “history nut” lists the important world events—ranging from the date of his birth in 1949 to the time of the song’s writing—in rapid-fire fashion.

Key lyrics:
I’ve a pretty Señorita waiting for me
Down in old Mexico
If you’re ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
Oh, my sweet Fraulein down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki
And I held you, oh so tight
12. My Favorite Things by Julie Andrews
The classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music features Julie Andrews singing the show tune My Favorite Things. Playing the role of Maria, she sings about the things she loves and thinks about when times are bad.
Key lyrics:
Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
13. (Get Your Kicks on) Route 66 by Chuck Berry
The lyrics to (Get Your Kicks on) Route 66 list many of the major stops along the famous highway. In Chuck Berry’s version of the song, he famously mispronounces “Barstow” but musically holds true to the song’s R&B roots.
Key lyrics:
Well it goes from St Louis, down to Missouri
Oklahoma City looks oh so pretty
You’ll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona don’t forget Winona
Kingsman, Barstow, San Bernadino
Would you get hip to this kindly trip
And take that California trip
Get your kick on Route 66

The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin’ out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it’s at
An’ oh that blowfish blow
