Anyone already mentioned Sultans of Swing, Dire Straits?

I always thought that Bon Jovi's, "Midnight in Chelsea" was about Bill Clinton's daughter.

Re: London Music
 

Yeah- done that.

How about West End Girls- Pet Shop Boys? Tenuous, I know!

Re: London Music
 

At a slight tangent, while looking through my collection for some of the mentioned songs I found the soundtrack to Wipeout2097, the Playstation racing game - tracks by the likes of The Prodigy (Firestarter Instumental), Fluke and Future Sound of London.

Better not let THAT one get on the MP3 player or its "Race On!"

Wipeout! Great games!

I was playing Wipeout 64 the other day- love it, though it's flaws make it a little frustraging. Great soundtracks though.

Re: London Music
 

At one stage there was a band called London :shock:

I remember them supporting The Stranglers when I saw them in Brighton :tiesto:

(We won't go in to how old I was then, but it was in 1977)

Got Wipeout Pure with my PSP - still play it all the time :)

Re: London Music
 

Plenty of Pogues stuff. It tends to be their slower ones rather than the thrashier tunes though.

Misty Morning Albert Bridge
Rainy Night In Soho
The Old Main Drag
White City
London girl - this has quite a lot of place name checks and is probably the fastest of this lot.

Some more I've probably missed.

Re: London Music
 

(sings)...and The Only Living Boy in New Cross :) Midnight on the Murder Mile's probably about London too.

The Wildhearts, Down on London
The Wildhearts, Greetings From ****sville.

And Mile End by Pulp. 3 top London-bashing songs there.
