It never rains in southern California 演唱者:Albert Hammond

1972年,Albert Hammond发行单曲《It never rains in southern California》,
该曲一发行就进入美国音乐榜前五。
2005年作为韩剧《人鱼小姐》的插曲在中国又火了一把。
不过喜欢这首歌与什么小姐无关,听着这听似欢快的旋律,我想到那些在外地淘金的人们。
他们风尘仆仆,远离他乡,来到这曾经如何渴望来到的城市,梦想与成就,今得否?
同样,也让我想起另一首同样以地名为名字的老歌"San Francisco"。
Do you know what kind of people are you gonna meet there?
