(Republished from the New York Nobody Sings) "Empire State Building oh! Rockfeller Center oh! Internationnal Building oh! Waldorf Astoria oh! Pan American Building oh! Bank of Manhattan oh!" Basically a list of New York landmarks (I saw New York! It's high!), circa 1964, who better to capture the sexy, sleek, international flavor of mid-60's New York than Serge Gainsbourg with his "New York USA"? Hat tip to Mr. Lee for the inspiration.
