Summah~*

[darkschneider]

So in honor of my final voyage to the beach for the summer this weekend, I wanted to put together a definitive compendium of summer songs. You get the idea.

No emo-fag whiny nu-metal shall be here. Only feel-good songs in which one can delight with the windows down on the highway, or driving through a resort town.

Here's a few I came up with

How the fuck do you forget Will Smith's "Summertime"?

[darkschneider]

I said off the top of my head, you wanker! Thanks for the suggestion.

I dunno, dude... that's the FIRST patently summer-themed song I think of, so I still feel like you dropped the ball on it. = P

*buzzer* Nice try. When I make a compendium of great one-hit-wonders, I'll put Europe's The Final Countdown there ;)

No summer mix is complete without Mungo Jerrie's "In the Summertime"!

And here is Elvis Costello's "The Other Side of Summer".

Despite not having the word "summer" in it

You're just upset because I have my name completely written on your kitten.

Word to your mother.

Oh yeah, and if you can find it, Blue Cheer's cover of "Summertime Blues" kicks much ass!

Actually, Guitar Wolf's cover of Summertime Blues kicks even more ass!

Bad Engrish, speed punk, and surfer rock collide!
