Throwback Thursday Part 50


In 1816 Gioacchino Rossini's opera "Barber of Seville" premieres in Rome. Therefore today's Throwback Thursday is to songs that have a city in their title.


But first, the excerpt from the opera that started this thread:

Largo et Factotum by baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky:



Scott McKenzie - San Francisco



Tori Amos - Juarez




 Arlo Guthrie - City of new Orleans




The Fray - Munich




Boney M. - Belfast Stereo




The Clash - London Calling




They Might Be Giants - Istanbul (not Constantinople)




Murray Head - One Night in Bangkok

 

Abba - Waterloo





Elvis Presley - Viva Las Vegas




Fats Domino - Detroit City Blues




And of course, the one, the only, the crazy - SuJu KRY!
