I'd be hard pressed to believe that anybody from California cares much about anti-CA songs. Some would probably agree with the sentiment while still loving where they live.

If you set up a California "battle of the bands", pro California songs would win by a Reaganesque landslide [watch this thread turn political]. Anti-cal you get one song each from the Chilipeppers and the Eagles (both ironically enough) and this Tool song.

Without trying too hard I can probably think of a dozen or so pro-CA songs - some significant...like California Dreaming and California Girls....others less than significant like Randy Newman's "I Love LA" or Journey's song about SF bay - whatever it is.

You wanna write a song about transportation problems and rain in Seattle. I couldn't disagree with it. But I also probably wouldn't care.

Now about that 1980 election...
