I agree with Seth Rudetsky that Sondheim's "Another Hundred People" is the apt but unacknowledged anthem of New York City.
On a side note, was listening to Company the other night (obvious reasons) then on a hunch pulled out Hissing of Summer Lawns... and found the combination quite devastating.

ReplyDeleteSo pile on the New York City devastation with
"Harry's House/Centerpiece"
(also from _Hissing_)

and
"Nathan La Franeer"
(from Mitchell's very first album,
1968's _Song to a Seagull_)
