"I Left My Heart In San Francisco"

The Lyrics:

The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay.
The glory that was Rome is of another day.

I'm going home to my city by the bay.
I left my heart in San Francisco.

Why:

Refers to Paris, France, Rome, Italy, and Manhattan island in New York City. Then alludes to San Francisco, California as "my city by the bay", and actually names it in the following line.

Songs That Are Banned:

"These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)"

In 1953, when Tony Bennett records this song (and makes a hit out of it) originally written in 1936 by Jack Strachey and Harry Link, the phrase "gardenia perfume linger on a pillow" is alterted to "a seaplane rising from an ocean billow."
