Some help please.

I need to compile a playlist with any (decent) songs with either running, America, Las Vegas, San francisco in the track title eg

Razorlight - America
Moby - Run on
Elvis - Viva Las Vegas
Mamas And The Papas - If You Are Going To San Francisco
Tupac - California Love

You get the idea!
 
Funeral for a friend - art of american football (does that work?)

Santana - America (feat POD)

Team America - America **** yeah

Jimmy Eat world - bleed american

The Dillinger Escape Plan - The running board

Muse - Time is running out

Van Halen - Runnin' with the devil


California isn't in your spec, but is in your list, so..

Red Hot chillis - dani california

Marlena Shaw - California soul

led zep - going to california.



EDIT:
Didn't notice the songs had to be decent :p

James Brown - Living In America

I'll have a think/search and see if I can come up with some more.

You could have the band America (Neil Young's old band) or American Head Charge but I don't know if they count for your list.

Estelle - American Boy
Kim Wilde - Kids In America (Lagwagon covered this in a great punk-lite version)
Supertramp - Breakfast In America
The Proclaimers - Letter From America (perhaps not good but well known)
Grand Funk Railroad - We're An American Band
Simon & Garfunkel - America
Greenday - American Idiot (the version by Richard Cheese is better)

Think that'll do for the American theme, onto Running

Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill
Spencer Davis Group - Keep On Running
Bodyjar - Running Out Of Time
Lionel Richie - Running With The Night

Las Vegas is a lot harder and you've got all the San Francisco tracks I know of offhand.
Sheryl Crow - Leaving Las Vegas
The Thrills - Your Love Is Like Las Vegas
