Leaving on a jet plane…

August 21st, 2008 — 04:10 am

All my bags are packed I’m ready to go…next time I’ll be blogging to you from San Francisco!

So until then, the Ramones say it pretty good…

“Well I’m going out west where I belong
Where the days are short and the nights are long 

When I walk and They walk I Twist and They Twist
I Shimmy and They Shimmy I fly and They fly
We’re out there having fun in the warm California sun”

I move in 5 days, and a great way to prepare for a trip or move or anything is to have a playlist about it so you can listen and get totally excited! Here are my top 10 songs from my California playlist. It gets me so excited for my move…well not about packing for said move, but thats another post!

“Oh, California in the Summer/Ah, and my hair is growin’ long”

2. Over My Head by The Fray

“As you lose the argument in a cable car.”

3. California Girls by The Beach Boys

“I wish they all could be california girls/The west coast has the sunshine”

4. Piazza New York Catcher by Belle & Sebastion

“San Francisco’s calling us/the Giants and Mets will play”

5.  California Dreamin’ by The Mamas & The Papas

“California Dreamin’ on such a winter’s day”

6. California by Phantom Planet

“Driving down the 101/California here we come”

7. San Francisco by Scott McKenzie

“If you’re going to San Francisco/Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you’re going to San Francisco/You’re gonna meet some gentle people there”

8. Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers

“And tidal waves couldn’t save the world from Californication”

9. Sleepy California by Her Space Holiday

“But I just hope they know/It’s just Sleepy California/How much I really care”

10. California One Youth and Beauty Brigade by The Decemberists

And the road a-winding goes/from golden gate to roaring cliff-side 
and the light is softly low as our hearts become sweetly untied/beneath the sun of California one”
