day 21 - a song that you listen to when you’re happy

Jun 08, 2011 11:35

SURF ROCK. I love it so much. I love to listen to it when I'm in a very specific sort of happy mood, certain circumstances, and yeah... when it's really sunny outside?

Of course I love the original version of this song by the Beach Boys, but you know it's David Lee Roth's raspy-voiced, super-sexualized solo cover of California Girls from the mid-80s that will forever reside in my heart.

Fave lines: well east coast girls are hip / i really dig those styles they wear

And there's just no way I could leave out my favorite; the iconic surf rock artist: Dick Dale's Misirlou -- even though the song has been around in some form or another for over 30 years before Dick Dale (and then the Beach Boys) recorded it.
