One song titled for this city describes "ladies, pleasant and demure / Sallow-cheeked and sure / I can see your undies" and describes it as a "ditch of iniquity and tears". In another song shitting on this city, the singer declares, "If I was smart I'd run fast / Out of this town / Sometimes I want to shout and scream / Fuck [this city]". That song, "The City with Two Faces", appeared on the self-titled album by (*) Goldfinger. The opening notes from the "Star-Spangled Banner" start a song about a woman from here. Neil Young described how in this city "The mountains erupt / And the valley is sucked / Into cracks in the earth". In this city "is where I drew some blood" by the singer of "Under the Bridge" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
