Cool City

[Otaraxia]

I’m only asking this because it has to do with an assignment for my english class. Is the Boingo song “cool city” about Los Angeles? And, if its not then could some one please give me the name of another Song that has to do with L.A.? Maybe another song that is in some way in relation to The Wonderful Mr. Elfman. Thank you oh so very much for your help!

I’m not a Boingo expert, but what about “I Love L.A.” by the lovable Randy Newman?

There’s the “Pico and Sepulveda” cover the Mystic Knights did.
That’s a great LA song!
It’s on the Forbidden Zone dvd

…or you can hunt down the 1940’s original by Felix Figueroa & His Orchestra.

Oops, wait…

That song wasn’t done by the mystic knights, it was performed Boulevard Stompers, I believe.
But it was in the Forbidden Zone, so it is somewhat related to Elfman
and it is, still, a great song!

MacArthur Park is in Los Angeles!

“Hollywood Nights” is another.

I think there’s also a song called Silverlake somewhere out there.

“Cool City” Is technically by Danny Elfman, it was on So-Lo, but it might as well be a Boingo Song.
