It's not in the title, but:

Abhainn an t-sluaigh (The crowded river) - Runrig

[video=youtube;g4E3CgQhTbM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4E3CgQhTbM[/video]

It starts with:
Chaneil an t-adhar os cionn Lunnainn a nochd soileir no dorch.
Fada bho abhainn an t-sluaigh.

Loosely translated:

The skies above London are neither bright nor dark
Far from the crowded river
(Most translations say "The need for be far from the crowded river")

The title is Alabama Frame of mind, but it is about Bayou La Batre, Alabama and Coden, Alabama. Fleet Blessing is tomorrow and is referenced in the song.

I belong to Glasgow
Maybe its because I'm a Londoner
I love Paris
Tulips from Amsterdam
