I've been fascinated by GF's "You Belong to the City" song ever since I heard this as a teen way back in '85. Great lyrics/meaning, sound (especially the sax), and vibe/tone.

This song essentially tells a story about a lone man who is walking through a large city at night. He is alone - but not really alone - due to all of the others around him. This song is a great representation of what it means to be on your own in an urban environment.
