<div><p>Music gives us a chance to wander the world without hopping on a plane. There are certain songs that you always associate with a place. Sometimes these tunes make us feel nostalgic about places we've visited as well as places that are just a figment of our imagination. </p><p>Take Edith Piaf's <em>La Vie en Rose</em> as an example. The song makes you feel like you're on a stroll along the Seine in Paris even if you've never stepped foot in the City of Lights. </p><p>There are plenty of other songs that evoke the same feeling in different people including Frank Sinatra's <em>New York, New York</em>, Lynyrd Skynyrd's <em>Sweet Home Alabama</em> and Bruce Springsteen's <em>Born in the U.S.A.</em> </p><p>Dorothy, a UK-based studio has created a brilliant world map made up entirely of such song titles! </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_650px.jpg 650w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_750px.jpg 750w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_850px.jpg 850w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_950px.jpg 950w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1050px.jpg 1050w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1150px.jpg 1150w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1250px.jpg 1250w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1350px.jpg 1350w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1450px.jpg 1450w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1550px.jpg 1550w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/world-song-map-large_GH_content_1630px.jpg 1630w" sizes="89vw" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>wearedorothy.com</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><p>The map's design took eight months to create and was inspired by vintage 1950s world wall charts.
