Title: All Your Summer Songs
Post by: Susannah on April 12, 2008, 07:40:21 PM
It was over 80 degrees in LA today, and I spent it at the beach.  Don't worry--summer is well on its way for the rest of the country, too.  What are your favorite summertime songs?  To listen to while grilling, or on the porch, or in the car...?

West Coast Poplock by Ronnie Hudson is a big one for me.

A few years ago it was Chewing Gum by Annie. Evan "Funk" Davies played it the other night; I was psyched.

Steal My Sunshine and Chewing Gum are two of the greatest.


Two from Scritti Politti

Love that LEN song still - wonder if they knew all along they only had one in 'em?

I think that song is far away the leader in the "Song sung entirely in my native language and fairly clearly to boot but still has the most words I cannot for the life of me understand" category.

Sticky pons?  Maker's jars?

What is the new soundtrack for summer?  I'm feeling old and hateful and haven't the energy to search for it myself.  Help, please?  I want something blaring from my speakers to shame/impress the high school kids as I drive to work.

Janet Jackson's "Rhythym Nation" 1989.  Oh, and also, the video for "what have you done for me lately" is amazing.  Here you go:

I don't know about you Susannah, but whether I'm driving around in my convertible in my seersucker shorts, plaid sneakers and oversized sunglasses, grilling big juicy beef burgers on the barbeque in my sarong and flipflops, or dancing through the sprinkler in my daisy bikini, you know I'll be listening to these hot babes.  Take it away, Nick, Kevin and Joe:

Cruel, cruel Jane.

What's wrong with big sunglasses?  Don't tell me you're one of those McCarren Park mutants.

Haha.  What, no love for the Jonas brothers?  I'm gonna tell Tom on you, and then you'll be in big trouble.

Yeah, I'm not really one for the big sunglasses and when I do hangout in MCCarren park I'm usually lying around on the grass, without a blanket, right on the muddy ground, like an animule.
