How about continents:
America: Simon and Garfunkel
Only in America: from West Side Story, also by Jay and the Americans
Africa: Toto
The Heat of the Moment: Asia
Down Under: Men at Work
Radio Free Europe: R.E.M.
Antarctica: Al Stewart
Yes, I know the first two songs are really about the United States, but, eh, the titles say America, so I'll let them stand for both North and South America.
