Definitely agree, Saw them when they came to Brooklyn. One of the best concerts I've ever been to in my life.

Not really a pop song (super underground actually) but here's a good one for Austin:


all the ones I could think of for Houston had been posted already. But as for Texas, I've always thought of this as being the most signature song for the entire state.

Anyways, here's some other songs I thought of:

YouTube - Scott McKenzie - If You're Going To San Francisco

I don't even like this song, but for Seattle the only thing I could think of is Hello Seattle, by Owl City. Again, I don't even like this song. This would not make a good advertisement.
