Strangely appropriate songs

These songs showed up on my iPod, sometimes at completely appropriate moments.

Big Sur - The Thrills
Heaven or Las Vegas - Cocteau Twins
Ventura Highway - America (while I was driving on it)
Spirit of St Louis - British Sea Power
Girl from NYC (Named Julia) - Of Montreal
Lovecraft in Brooklyn - The Mountain Goats
Black Sheep Boy #4 - Okkervil River (has line about Baltimore)
Summer in the City - Regina Spektor
Ode to LA - The Raveonettes

These songs, thankfully, did not play on my iPod at appropriate moments.

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Anything by Boston
Anything by Kansas
Anything by Chicago
Hotel California - The Eagles

  1. 'Lovecraft in Brooklyn' is by Mountain Goats, Sparky

    Too bad you didn't have Magnetic Fields' 'Luckiest Guy on the Lower East Side'

    Or 'Ohio' by Modest Mouse. Next time I'll make you a mix of site-specific songs.
