What are some of your favorite songs about Louisiana by singers or bands that are not from the state?

Here’s some of my favorites:

John Oates - Lose It In Louisiana

Parachute - New Orleans

Dierks Bentley - Mardi Gras

The last one does have Trombone Shorty, but he’s not the lead singer of the song so ..... count it for threeeee.

I think this was the closest an outsider came to capturing the classic New Orleans sound/vibe

Gary U.S. Bonds - "New Orleans"

Does anybody remember the classic Man Show record commercial parody, offering 2 LPs or cassettes of classic hard rock tunes from the '70s ("Because life is too short not to live in the past!")

A few of the tracks:

"Ramblin'

"Cajun Queen"

"Ramblin' Cajun Queen"

"Ramblin' Cajun Queen from New Orleans"
