Talk:List of songs about Portland, Oregon

Some things on this list don't really make the cut

 * Here are the lyrics for Bon Iver’s song “Holocene.” I don’t see much here about Portland, and so I suggest removing it from the list.Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:09, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Here are the lyrics to Rocky Votolato's "Portland is Leaving." Despite the name of the song, I don’t see much here about Portland, and so I suggest removing it from the list.Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:48, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Regarding "11:11" by Rufus Wainright (2003), the song mentions Portland but I can't see that it really says anything about Portland. Maybe I'm missing something.  Anyway, I can't find a reliable source as a footnote.Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:32, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
