One day if I do go to heaven...I'll look around and say, 'It ain't bad, but it ain't San Francisco.
California, here I come, right back where I started from.
We're crazy about this city. Los Angeles? That's just a big parking lot where you buy a hamburger for the trip to San Francisco.
The hardest one, the thing that made the greatest demand on me, was The Mamas & the Papas.
I know when 'California Dreamin' was first released, we heard it on KFWB or KHJ or something, and it was so exciting to hear the record come on the radio.
If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair, if you're going to San Francisco, you're gonna meet some gentle people there.
The best New York in the world is driving down the [Pacific Coast Highway] listening to the Velvet Underground. That's the best time I've ever been to New York.
You haven't lived until you've died in California
The idea of a Chicago band that wanted to sing songs about California is really funny. Having never been to California.
I forget how beautiful and calm California is. It's not so much about the place, but also the age that I came to the place and, well, other things. New York is hard.
