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

I always thought Gerry's version said "This city's dance"....
No matter, it's still a great song, and really cool cover!

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.

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!

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!!

"He's got this dream about buying some land. He's gonna give up the..."
Foos: "crack"
Gerry: "booze"
"...and the one-night stands."
