**COMPLETED!** **New York City** ******List 32******* The city so nice they named it twice has been the subject of contemporary songs again and again. If they ever induct a city to the R&RHoF as a muse, the Big Apple would be among a select few and probably #1 for contemporary American music. In my eyes, the city is a Rock Star.
