Tom Petty's, "Free Fallin'"

The Lyrics:

It's a long day living in Reseda. (also) All the vampires walkin' through the Valley Move west down Ventura Boulevard. (also) I wanna glide down over Mulholland.

Why:

Reseda is a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, and Ventura Boulevard is a large street in the Valley. Mulholland Drive runs along the ridgeline of the Santa Monica Mountains and Hollywood Hills and offers views of both the L.A. basin and the San Fernando Valley.

Tom Petty's, "Honey Bee"

The Lyrics:

She gave me her monkey hand
And a Rambler sedan
I'm the king of Milwaukee
Her juju beads are so nice
She kissed my third cousin twice
I'm the king of Pomona
And I've got something to say

Why:

Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Pomona, CA
