    This choice might seem odd but the steel drums at the end always make me picture a tropical setting.....

    "Kokomo" by The Beach Boys.

    This song transported me so much that I went to Kokomo to see what it was really like.

    [​IMG]

    It's a nice town but not a tropical paradise. Maybe it was the wrong Kokomo.
