Lights - Journey (1978)* Video - "When the lights go down in the city and the sun shines on LA." Steve Perry penned these words shortly before joining Journey, who was from San Francisco. He didn't quite like the lyrics, so he changed "LA" to "the Bay" and it became about San Francisco. Anyone who has spent a lot of time in either city would likely find the LA version puzzling as it's anything but beautiful. The Bay makes a whole lot more sense. Although Perry has moved on and been replaced by Filipino Arnel Pineda, "Lights" remains a concert favorite as I can attest.
