That piece of GOLD movie 'The Naked Gun' first introduced me to this song. But I've been in love with the idea of living in Cali, L.A. specifically since I was a single digits kid in the 70s.

I don't live in LA and nor do I EVER wish to do so. However, I CERTAINLY enjoy the 80's tune AND the Video! ESPECIALY the vehicles, Clothing style and HAIR of that decade!👍😃US!

And to this day one of the best cities in the world to complete your life, your dreams. Regardless of what any dummy has to say 👌

As a New Yorker who has been to L.A. numerous times, this is the best song, it epitomizes L.A., it's wonderful! Also loved hearing this when I went to a few games at Dodger Stadium (even though I'm a Mets fan). I have much love for L.A. and the New Yorkers that talk shit about it most likely have never been there. :)
