Starting off the list is a hit song by Marcy Playground, “The Shadow of Seattle.” Though it’s not the most positive song related to the state, it’s certainly one of the most popular and blunt with its subject matter. Through the song, Marcy Playground paints a picture of Seattle as a haven for liars. There are hints of thievery as the band accuses ...
The Postal Service was one of the biggest bands of the early and mid-2000s, and “This Place Is a Prison” is one of their most prominent songs. As you can likely guess from the name, it’s not a song filled with praises. However, the name doesn’t refer directly to Seattle but to the world itself. In “This Place Is a Prison,” the band discusses nightl...
The hip-hop and rap scenes are both alive and well in Seattle as well. In 2005, the Boom Bap project released a mixtape effectively welcoming all listeners to the state, using the bars as a chance to bring the Seattle culture to bear. With the trademark boom-bap snares of the genre, the Boom Bap Project comes with an aggressive bass track and an ad...
Even if you don’t know where Seattle is, there’s a good chance you’ve heard Owl City’s song about the city. Like The Postal Service, Owl City makes direct reference to the famous Puget Sound through a dreamy and surreal song. Throughout, the narrator takes the form of the moon, an albatross, a lighthouse, and a mountaineer, each greeting the city i...
Next up we have “Seattle” by Perry Como which has plenty of nice things to say about the city. Although his wasn’t the original version, it is undoubtedly the most popular, charting well on the Billboard Hot 100. The lyrics to “Seattle,” primarily highlight the gorgeous nature of the city and the sights that you can find throughout discussing the b...
Around the turn of the 2010s, Macklemore was one of the biggest names in music. Though not as popular as tracks like “Thrift Shop,” “My Oh My” is easily one of Macklemore’s most emotional tracks, especially for baseball fans. The track was written as a tribute to the late Dave Niehaus, a broadcaster for the Seattle Mariners. Macklemore talks about ...
Seattle is known for its beautiful nature, but one of the characteristics you’ll never be able to forget is the constant clouds. Shelton uses these clouds as his version of Hell freezing over in “Sunny in Seattle.” In the song, Blake Shelton writes an adorable love song to the woman that keeps his heart. He insists his love will remain until it’s s...
“Slick Watts” lyrically serves more like a list than anything else. With an addictive electronic instrumental you can’t help but groove to, Blue Scholars list off the geographical and athletic notes you’ll be familiar with in the city. Named after Donald Earl Watts, a popular Seattle SuperSonics player, the track highlights some of the many names y...
Seattle’s history isn’t spotless. In 1999, the Seattle WTO Protests(nicknamed the Battle of Seattle) got national attention. The event would lead to multiple deaths, a major fire, and eventually a declaration of civil emergency. Anti-Flag uses this event as a moment of activism, asking why they needed to riot to be heard. It’s a high-octane punk tr...
We couldn’t make such a list without bringing the legendary Nirvana’s “Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle” track to bear. Written by Dave Grohl, the song focuses on Seattle actress Frances Farmer, who was accused of atheism and communism. The accusations would lead to time in a mental institution and the plummetting of a promising care...
