No Picture Speed Demon Professional	#1 by Speed Demon at Dec 17, 1972 at 3:42 PM EST
	Catchy tune. I was so addicted to this. Kinda still am. I think it's about being HOMESICK.

No Picture sean Wanna Be	#2 by sean bradly at Jun 14, 1979 at 3:55 AM EST
	There is one thing that everyone is missing about this song. If you don't notice, there is a very depressed under tone to the entire thing. This song is talking about how horrible Hollywood is, considering that everyone that thinks of California thinks of Stardum. This song is about the fact that even though they don't like California, they still can't break free. "Right back where we started From."

No Picture Lenny Judd (Pap Wanna Be	#3 by Lenny Judd (Papa Smurf) at Mar 7, 1991 at 4:43 AM EST
	my theme song, i've got to get out of pennsylvania and out to california.

No Picture David Average	#4 by David Turner at Jan 20, 2005 at 11:36 PM EST
	I hate name-droppers. If you have to do it, at least get his position RIGHT, for christ's sake. Anyway. This abnd has been around for awhile you should check out their older songs especially.

No Picture Francesco Lead Player	#5 by Francesco DeVito at May 1, 2005 at 9:45 PM EST
	I love this song, but I've always hated California. It's just so depressing there. Not saying Utah's better, just...

No Picture BeN-bEn Lead Player	#6 by BeN-bEn Lesniewski at Aug 22, 2007 at 5:41 AM EST
	i like this song a lot. i take it as you gotta get to somewhere that you feel you belong. you are searching to find that place, theirs happens to be California. but that is just how i see it! :)
