A musical reminisence to remind me of all the places I've yet to see. Most of the songs are only hinting at a place because I prefer dreaming of my destinations... Please consider this an imaginary travelogue.

Love the picture you posted, I took one almost identical the last time I was in Chicago
Ye, Chicago is the place I want to be.
What about California?? Of course there are a multitude of tunes that feature the Golden State, but the first one that comes to mind is "California Gurls" by Katy Perry. I know it's obnoxious, but come on... "once you party with us, you'll be falling in love, oh-ah-oh-ah-oh-ah-oh!"

Haha,Katy Perry is getting married to one of the most obnoxious knobs I know. I've been to California...I've yet to visit your place though.
And I have yet to pay my respects to the UK ;)
I thought Mr. Brand was pretty hilarious in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Maybe it's just the accent that gets me though...
