Here's a little game to play, find a song where they mention a place, post the song and a coin from that country (no national anthems, that's too easy)

Just a fun fact

Unfortunately no Finnish version. Can't work that in the correct number of syllables: Amsterdamin satamassa.
Anyway, a coin:

"Barcelona" by Freddie Mercury
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8Eg-mWdDLc
Interestingly, although it was the theme song for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, it wasn't actually written for them. Mercury became friends with opera singer Montserrat Caballé and she asked him to write a song about her home city, it was just adopted by the Olympics. Unfortunately Mercury was supposed to perform at the Olympics but died just before they started.
And now to a coin...how about this Spanish beauty

Alright, here's one for you Americans
Bye Bye Miss American Pie - By Don McLean
And one of my favourite American coins to go with it
With the US State quarters and plenty of songs, we could probably even do a whole thread on US states alone
I'm thinking Sweet Home Alabama, New York New York, California dreaming, Blue moon of Kentucky, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, etc.

While my brother was going to Discos, I was doing the Punk Rock thing.

To this day, I think Idi Amin is the poster boy for Dictator.

There is some mystery about the lyrics. Apparently the original lyrics sheet went on sale recently and they had notes on the side that gave clues to what it was about. But only the one that paid thousands to get it would find out.
