Summertime Songs ---> Let's post our favs
With Summertime rapidly approaching I am eagerly awaiting my favorite summertime songs to start airing.
Why not get a head start on that groove by posting your favs here too? Here is one by Chuck Prophet ~ Summertime Thing It got some airplay about seven summers ago and then it faded away. I have always held on to it since then so I can trot it out this time of year.

Okay, it was way overplayed in the year it was released, but I still enjoy Steal My Sunshine by Len.

Last year's summer song for Portugal was undoubtedly this:
All the clubs pumping it out.

"Chattahoochee" by Alan Jackson
and MY FAVE "Summertime Blues" by Alan Jackson The video is awe inspiring. http://youtube.com/watch?v=Qy7eWTaAjfA /me loves me big trucks. The muddier the better. My hubby is a fanatic about bathing the damn things, keeping them sparkling clean. I say a quick run through the creek is clean enough, and a hell of alot more fun! Especially if you can take a dip yourself with an overalls-clad man wearing a cowboy hat. Yum! A dirty truck is a well loved truck. Still looking for a t-shirt that has a picture of a big big truck that reads "Size Matters!"

Can't go wrong with a little Gershwin, reinterpreted.
Always makes me think of summers here. Hot and muggy, but things are good. This always makes me think of summer as well. It's so languorous and sultry.

Ok, this one probably isn't considered a summertime song by anyone but me, but I always love to drive with the top down and crank it up, something that can only be done here in Michigan during the summer. |

This second one isn't about summer, but I can't think of any other season when I hear it. http://youtube.com/watch?v=YKtchX_27P8

Not too sure why the following list reminds me of summer, but it just does. Nothing like opening a window on a summer night with a cool breeze going through and putting on one of the following
 .Don't Fear the Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd Anything by Alexisonfire Anything by Blink-182 Anything by Rush PS. How could I forget some Boards of Canada, my absolute favourite group of all time!
