is there a baker street in L.A?

Hi I just checked multimap and there is, but according to rumour, Gerry actually used to busk in Baker Street and got fed up of living in London.

[RichardChuckie]

Yeah. I assumed that it referred to the Baker Street in London also.

There's another lyrical difference...

Gerry: "This city desert makes you feel so cold"

Foos: "This city's dance makes you feel so cold"

I think Gerry Rafferty was ripping on LA (so many people but it's got no soul), and Dave Grohl misunderstood the lyrics.

BTW, nice cover version!

[zombieoverdrive]

Thanx for that danh! Well I always thought it was about London, but yea London has got soul and it rains most of the time so its not a desert. LA suits a lot better!!

I always thought Gerry's version said "This city's dance"....

No matter, it's still a great song, and really cool cover!

"He's got this dream about buying some land. He's gonna give up the..."

Foos: "crack"

Gerry: "booze"

"...and the one-night stands."

[zombieoverdrive]
