I’m here again after Freddie Freeman’s Walk Off Grand Slam Home Run of Game 1 of the World Series against NY Yankees, 36 years to the day of Gibson’s Walk Off Home Run!
I was born in Los Angeles in 1959. I graduated from Canoga Park High School in 1977. I've lived in Denver since 1997. But no matter where I am, I'm a 60s, 70s, and 80s, Southern Californian.
Wasn't born in CA, but upstate NY in 1960. Have ti agree we had 4 amazing decades. 60's as a kid. 70's as a teen. 80's as a young adult. 90's prime adulthood.
I'm from New York and want you to know a lot of people with Brooklyn roots are rooting for Dem Bums. I personally prefer the NYY between the two NY teams but my blood is BLUE. LAD 2024 World Series Champs!!!
It's a song that is unabashedly snarky and tongue in cheek, but it's grown to become Randy's signature song and the unofficial song of the City of Los Angeles. Every time an L.A. sports team wins a game or championship, this is the victory song. Yeah, L.A. is in reality far from paradise, but I'm still proud to call it my hometown.
@@OGMagg I mean MAYBE you mean cuz you live here since you also said “here” so I’m assuming you do. Anyways, so because you live here then ig I can understand in the sorta sense like you’re used to it unlike tourists who love the attractions n culture. So yea everybody wouldn’t consider their hometown a paradise (especially lesser known states n cities).
Funny, I had a Buick like this (and a redhead girlfriend!) but the town was Tempe AZ. You never hear songs about other places... that make you wonder why you don't live there already.
Agreed. Hey bro, I’m born and raised in LA, and will live here until I die. Sure, there are challenges, but I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. #ToLiveAndDieInLA
I lived in Las Vegas for awhile and met a lot of transplants from L A and it's not all bad believe me. They just love life with no judgmental attitudes. I loved Las Vegas too!
World Series CHAMPIONS!!!!! We LOVE L.A. let's go Dodgers!!!!! 2024 was always going to be our year!! And Randy, thank you for this iconic epic song we hear every time we WIN!! 🎉
I love Randy Newman, always did right from the start of his career, I love this song, I love LA and I'm from Philly and a Phillies fan. Every time this song comes on after a Dodger Victory it just overwhelms me. Funny it came out in 83 and the Phillies creamed LA in the NLCS that year and I don't think the Dodgers were playing it back then. Song just gets to me like the Finish Hymn, "This is my song"(Finlandia). it's lyrics: "But other hearts in other lands are beating With hopes and dreams as true and high as mine. My country's skies are bluer than the ocean, And sunlight beams on clover- leaf and pine. But other lands have sunlight too and clover, And skies are everywhere as blue as mine. Oh, hear my song, O God of all the nations, A song of peace for their land and for mine.". Let's not be separated by Red states and blue states, let's all be red,white and blue states again. Super Victory tonight thanks to the Classy Freddie Freeman.
That is Steve Lukather on guitar, David Paich on keys, and the late great Jeff Porcaro on drums - on video and in your ears. Known collectively as Toto.
I just realized this too from something I saw on Instagram about Toto!!!! I remember hearing this song as a kid, but don’t remember seeing the video. I would have remembered Luke, Paich & Jeff b/c even as a little kid I already loved Toto. After seeing the Instagram post I HAD to come look for the video. Really glad it’s here b/c some things from back then are hit or miss to find here. This is great! A fun song to begin with, but realizing not just one of your favorite bands, but your favorite musician -Luke- is playing on it really kicks it up a notch!!! ❤️✨🎸🥁🎹✨❤️ Including them in the video, that’s just gold🤩
Love L.A. my hometown and this song emphasizes the feeling of Angelinos. Plays after every Dodgers win at the stadium which puts a nice ribbon on top. Good vibes and energy! We love L.A. ❤
It was pretty awesome to see my comment from the previous chip! (The Lakers won the chip a few months prior to the Blue Crew. That's why I said again. )
His tone and control of his lyrics is amazing. I’m a musician, and blown away by the subtle nuisances and way he sings and plays. Cannot replicate him.
Yeah this tune is paradoxically highly celebrated yet under appreciated. It’s deceptively complex, beautifully structured, packed to the gills with tons of disparate musical ideas, all of which fit together so neatly. I Love L.A. is an elegant masterpiece of a song.
This song came out at the perfect time for Los Angeles. The Lakers Showtime Dynasty era, The LA Summer Olympics, Dodgers 81 & 88 World Series Champs, Raiders Super Bowl XVIII Champs, Wayne Gretzky trade to Kings, etc.
There is no other state like California. I was born in LA County, Whittier. Lived in Orange County, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. Had moved out of state twice to Tennessee. Just recently moved back to my home state of California. I live in So Cal, missed it, love it. Beaches, beautiful Coast line, weather. Iconic song. California is like 3 states in 1. Southern, Central, Northern. All so different and unique. So much to do here in Cali. Glad to be a Californian. I love LA!
I was born in Burbank, lived in the Los Angeles area the first 48 years of my life. Unfortunately I’ve spent the last two years stuck in Louisiana. Can’t wait to get back to California. 🥰
Randy Newman has the kind of creative musical craziness that I've loved for years and years. People can't understand why I love Randy and his music so much, and frankly, I don't give a damn.
I grew up in So Cal 1960-70's. This video captures the feel of So Cal and LA of that era. We did not know how nice we had it. One house-less person on the beach/!?!?!?!? Sad it's gone.
congrats to the LA Dodgers, 2024 world champions. baseball is soooo hard. but it's the hardness that makes it great. If it were easy then everyone would do it. Hats off LA, outstanding....awesome.
What a great song. I've been in this world for some time now, and I'm visiting L.A. for this first time this June. I'll definitely be cranking this in the rental car!
If you're expecting what he sings about here you'll be disappointed. Except for the homeless people on their knees, there's going to be thousands of those LA is a shithole now
During the NFC Championship game, I had the chorus all ready to go, just waiting for the opportunity to play it for my wife who's a big Niner fan. Thank you Jimmy G.!!!!!!
How could this not be a hit? Even has a few members from Toto as the backing band and Lindsey and Christine from Fleetwood Mac doing background vocals. Great solo by Luke.
Nathan East on bass who was Eric Clapton's longtime bassist. He even toured with Toto after Mike Porcaro got ALS. Paich, Lukather, and East also contribute to the "we love it!" part
One of the reasons I fell in love with the magic of LA. Moved here from Europe 10 years later and am still happy 28 years in. Also… that baseline is just killer!
@@VrooooAM Good for you, man. People love to shit on L.A., but every time I've been there, I've never wanted to leave. I love it there. If I thought I could afford to live there and find a decent job, I move there tomorrow
Ironically it was written to be the theme for the '84 Olympics, but the IOC saw the irony in the song and thought "that's not really the kind of image we want for this..."
When did the LA Dodgers start playing this song every time they win a home game? It happened again tonight, October, 6 after LA Dodger Chris Taylor hit a walk-off 2 run HR in the bottom of the 9th. I'm not a Dodger fan, but that was damn exciting, and hearing "I Love LA" was the icing on top of the cake.
@@muttleydastardly3610 every home victory by ever sports team except thr kings I think plays this song. The kings play it after they score iirc. Been a thing for at least 30 years, cuz this song is etched into my memory from every win in my lifetime.
Who's here after Freddie Freeman's walk-off grand slam to win Game 1 of the World Series in extra innings against the Yankees?

Great comeback : "I love LA". ⚾
Randy used to love LA until he jumped onto the 405 at 4pm.
He and the big nasty redhead could use the diamond lane.
Been there, done that. Lol
405 South (from the Hills to past LAX) usually isn't that bad, only Afternoon rush hour, North is F-ed up pretty much nonstop until early evening
elon musk's boring tunnels underground should help solve some of the traffic.
Traffic on the 405 is enough to make anyone not love LA.
World Series baby!!! WE LOVE IT!!!

I grew up as a teen in a boring Ohio town in the 80's --- this video confirms that I was missing out on a LOT
I’m a D-Backs fan who despises the Dodgers and I went nuts when Freeman walked it off. Instantly iconic moment in baseball history!

Haters not from L.A. could not stand the song. It was only sold at retailers on the west coast.
Nathan East on bass who was Eric Clapton's longtime bassist. He even toured with Toto after Mike Porcaro got ALS. Paich, Lukather, and East also contribute to the "we love it!" part
One of the reasons I fell in love with the magic of LA. Moved here from Europe 10 years later and am still happy 28 years in. Also… that baseline is just killer!
Most Joe Biden loving gun banning clowns love L.A.
Me too. 21 years here from the Midwest....wouldn't live anywhere else. Love it!
You should check out the “German in Venice” UA-camr if you haven’t already.
I just moved here from the East Coast. I’ve been dreaming of it all my life :)
@@VrooooAM Good for you, man. People love to shit on L.A., but every time I've been there, I've never wanted to leave. I love it there. If I thought I could afford to live there and find a decent job, I move there tomorrow
What a well written song
Indeed it is bud
I'm here after the parade! Can't get enough!
The Rams win the Super Bowl. That's what brought me back here.
I played this song the night they won it!!!
Go rams
Eazy-e brought me here
What's up with that?
Gay
Please let this be played in the leadup to the 2028 Olympics
Ironically it was written to be the theme for the '84 Olympics, but the IOC saw the irony in the song and thought "that's not really the kind of image we want for this..."
@@mcj88 Then don't play the first four lyrics.
I attended the 84 Olympic Games out there and heard this song on the radio several times driving around..Memories
When did the LA Dodgers start playing this song every time they win a home game? It happened again tonight, October, 6 after LA Dodger Chris Taylor hit a walk-off 2 run HR in the bottom of the 9th. I'm not a Dodger fan, but that was damn exciting, and hearing "I Love LA" was the icing on top of the cake.
@@muttleydastardly3610 every home victory by ever sports team except thr kings I think plays this song. The kings play it after they score iirc.
Been a thing for at least 30 years, cuz this song is etched into my memory from every win in my lifetime.
Thank you Freddie Freeman…we love it!!!
