Let me know if there are any other good songs that I should add. All of these lists are works in progress. I have made a few lists of songs grouped by places and topics which you can see at the links below. Most songs are also available on Spotify and other streaming services. I have censored the seven deadly words and other offensive words (not to protect you, but to protect this site from being censored.) YouTube links to the song are included if I could find them.

The lyrics and comments are as accurate as I can determine but there are probably some mistakes for which I apologize. Check out Wickipedia's List of Songs About California for a more complete list. I've received lots of great recommendations so let me know if there are any good songs missing. I'll add new songs to the list as I discover them. There's room for everything here, but some songs that may have a personal or cultural connection to the state for you may not be included on the list because since they don't specifically mention something about the state in the lyrics or title, I'm not aware of them. Some musicians have even written songs about California songs. Recording a California song seems to be almost a requirement for musicians, even if it's only to show that they hate the California stereotypes or the Hollywood entertainment industry that dominates their field. That didn't work out for them, either.) Other songs describe the disappointment found after getting to California and discovering that life there is no better than where the singer came from.
