Episode 4 - Cities and Places



Welcome to Episode 4 of the Sounds from the Cornerstone podcast! This week's (slightly more on time) theme is cities and places. These songs are about or imply a certain city or place "on this football we call Earth". And so I played:

"Machu Picchu" – The Strokes (Angles)

"J'aime plus Paris" – Thomas Dutronc (Comme un manouche sans guitare)

"Paris" – MSTRKRFT (The Looks)

"Fake Tales of San Francisco" – Arctic Monkeys (Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not)

"Spencer Park" – Matt Stevens (Echo)

"Lillo" – Ministère des Affaires Populaires (Debout la d'dans!)

"Alone in Kyoto" – AIR (Talkie Walkie)

"Rome" – Phoenix (Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix)

"Putnam County" – Tom Waits (Nighthawks at the Diner)

"New Orleans is Sinking" – The Tragically Hip (Up to Here)

"Brooklyn" – Woodkid (Iron EP)

"Los Angeles, I'm Yours" – The Decemberists (Her Majesty the Decemberists)

I know there are many more cities and places to visit through music but I hope this was a nice diverse taste already! And as always, if you liked some, a lot of, or everything you heard in the podcast, go check out those awesome bands and support them!
