It never rains in southern California 演唱者：Albert Hammond
1972年，Albert Hammond发行单曲《It never rains in southern California》，
该曲一发行就进入美国音乐榜前五。
2005年作为韩剧《人鱼小姐》的插曲在中国又火了一把。
不过喜欢这首歌与什么小姐无关，听着这听似欢快的旋律，我想到那些在外地淘金的人们。
他们风尘仆仆，远离他乡，来到这曾经如何渴望来到的城市，梦想与成就，今得否？
同样，也让我想起另一首同样以地名为名字的老歌"San Francisco"。
Do you know what kind of people are you gonna meet there?
