It's official
I was just notified that the official rock song of Oklahoma has been selected, and the winner is "Do You Realize" by The Flaming Lips. Impressive, and it makes me wonder what the song for California should be. "California Dreaming" is too obvious. "California Girls" is not PC. Not that song by the Chili Peppers (maybe a TV show theme song? I don't have cable) or the Phantom Planet song from The OC (definitely a TV theme song)... "Party at Ground Zero" by Fishbone might be good. "California Über Alles" by the Dead Kennedys? Something by the Westside Connection?

"Sink With California" by Youth Brigade!
How about either 2Pac ("California Love") or "California Stars" by Wilco/Billy Bragg?
I was touched that OK went w/ "Do You Realize"!
"California Uber Alles" was the unofficial slogan at Cal in the late 80s.
