Elizabeth Banks
Kenny Loggins' "Keep The Fire"

REASON: She's in BRIGHT BURN



Howie Mandel
National Lampoon's "Old Maid (Southern California Brings Me Down)"
https://youtu.be/Cadc3i9o8cU?t=153
REASON: Mandel once said that he felt it is a bit of a shame that he had to travel out of Canada to be a success and while he is proud to go where his success has taken him, he cannot and will not deny his Canadian pride. As someone who college comedy records, I immediately went to this record, as it partly makes fun of Neil Young but focuses on where he and Mandel comes from, which is Ontario, thus:

"Oh, I need some place to go
Oh, North Ontario
It's safer than Alabama-O
It's safer than Ohio"

Of course, the "Ohio" reference is for Neil Young so you may want to stop at the Alabama-O part. Anyway, he's from the Willowdale part of Toronto. As long as I suggest songs, someone will get a song in honor of where they're from, as I'm forever homesick.
