Then again, I live in Northern Virginia, which is like a different state from the rest of it. I doubt if any songs about my state apply to my area. In that case I'll have to find some for DC. Maybe I'll take a look at songs by Duke Ellington and Fugazi - not together, of course, though that would have been an interesting collaboration. I completely agree with you.. Northern Virginia is kinda its own place.. I was trying to think of a song for Northern Virginia or Virginia for that matter and I cant... _________________________ -D Modifying and Tweaking is a journey, not a destination................................

TigerJimmy old hand Registered: 15/02/2002 Posts: 1049	Well, there's "North to Alaska" and "When its Springtime in Alaska, its 40 Below", both by Johnny Horton. I was in this fantastic bar in Talkeetna Alaska, and when someone played "North to Alaska" the whole bunch of (armed) drunken Alaskans sang along. It was outrageous. 3AM drunken party and sunshine outside.
