June 16, 200817 yr We're never going to get all 50 states represented here, but which state is featured most in song titles? I reckon it must be Georgia. Georgia On My Mind Georgia (Elton) Midnight Train To Georgia The Devil Went Down To Georgia Sweet Georgia Brown And I'm sure there are about half a dozen others. Norma
June 16, 200817 yr I bet it's New York actually. Or California. I'm off to google! :lol: :lol: Norma And as if by magic! Sweet Georgia Brown-The Harlem Globetrotters wouldn't be the same without it. The Devil Went Down to Georgia-Charley Daniels' third charted hit, it went to number three in the fall of 1979. The Night The Lights went out in Georgia-Vicki Lawrence's only charted hit, it was Number 1 for two weeks in March, 1973. Midnight Train to Georgia-As amazing as this sounds, the only number one hit for Gladys Knight and the Pipps. It hit the top of the charts in September, 1973, and stayed there for 2 weeks. Originally titled "Midnight Plane to Houston". Rainy night in Georgia-The last of Brook Benton's hits, it reached Number 4 during the spring of 1970. Georgia(on my mind)-Our State Song-The official version is the one Ray Charles did in 1960. It was his 5th Top 40 release and first Number 1 single. It hit the top of the charts on October 10, 1960 and stayed there for 1 week. And that's not all! - Here's a list of additional songs with the word Georgia in the title, courtesy of Georgia Brown.
