Just wondering what your favorite songs about NYC are?

I would have to say:

"NYC" from Annie
"Only in New York" from Thoroughly Modern Millie
"New York, New York" (so it's not from a musical, but it's one of my all time favorite songs)

New York, New York.

I've never traveled to the city without listening to it before I leave. I love that song

Another Hundred People is one of my favourite songs as well.

Just heard a nice one for the first time tonight:

Nothing new here but I love them just the same.

NY, NY- sung by-Liza, Barbara S, or Frank S

I'm in a NY state of mind- Billy Joel of course. After visiting NY, now it has more meaning.

'Manhattan' by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, from Garrick Gaieties, 1925. It will always be a classic.

'Just Arrived' -from Barry Manilows London production of 'Cocacbana' Not the greatest number but a great bit of camp about young Broadway hopefuls arriving in NY.
