The image of California as all palm trees, sunshine, and beaches applies only to a fraction of coastal southern California, but nevertheless it's what the world thinks of when the state is mentioned, and therefore it's common in California songs. All of these lists are works in progress.Ī lot of songs have been written about California. If more than one song by an artist is included on the list, the brief description of tbelow. I have made a few lists of songs grouped by places and topics which you can see at the links available on Spotify and other streaming services. Most songs are also he artist will be put only on the first song on the list. I have censored potentially offensive words (not to protect you, but to protect this site from being censored.) YouTube links to the song are included if I could find them, but they remove songs often there so you might have to search for the song yourself if I haven't fixed a bad link. The lyrics and comments are as accurate as I can determine but there are no doubt some mistakes for which I apologize. This is not meant to be a list of favorites, just some interesting songs. A few of them are Califonria songs by the title or the context instead of the lyrics. It has been split into two pages but it's better to go the Title List or the Artist List, find the song there, then click on the 'Artist' link which will take you to back here for comments and lyrics.Ĭalifornia is the main subject of some of these songs, but others simply mention something about the state such as a place, a street or highway, the weather, a person, or an attitude or lifestyle the state evokes for the singer. This list is much too long to browse easily. Songs That Mention California (With Comments and Lyrics) Songs That Mention California (with lyrics)
