Musical Geography


Heard Sade's "Smooth Operator" over the weekend and it got me thinking about geographical missteps in pop songs. "Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago" is a classic, along with "New York to East California" in Kim Wilde's "Kids in America" and the famed "South Detroit" in Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'."

Please put your favorites in the comments -- I'm pretty sure there's an infamous John Denver blooper, which escapes my mind right now!
