The challenge level for today's Coffee Break is: medium. You may have to think on it for a little bit, but everyone should be able to play. Listener Jean, in Minneapolis, wrote in with today's theme, "A good friend of mine just introduced me to the singer Sara Bareilles. I fell in love with her song "Manhattan," and I thought, Wow, that would make a good coffee break; songs that have a city name as a title!"

Great suggestion Jean. What songs that have a city name as a title should we play for today's Coffee Break.

Get in your entry for January's Coffee Break on the Road. Jill and Steve will be joined by Charlie Parr prior to his show at the Cedar on Feb. 1. And they'll bring him and some coffee and treats from JJ's Coffee and Wine Bistro. Just email: CoffeeBreak@TheCurrent.org
