Every year that summer rolls around, I always say that I'll at least mention my favorite summery songs. A few years ago I made a summer mix and since then, I keep meaning to post it in or around Memorial Day (unofficial start of summer here in the US), but... I always forget.
But know what? It's still July; there's still plenty of summer to go around (unfortunately, that means more 90+ degree days here. AUGH THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I DISLIKE TEXAS). Therefore, you need summer jams. Some of these just remind me of June-August, and some are just gimmes.
Summer in the City, The Loving Spoonful
Over and Over, Nelly and Tim McGraw
Summer Wind, Frank Sinatra
Summer Breeze (Phillip Stier Remix), Seals and Croft
Boys of Summer, Don Henley
Always Be My Baby, Mariah Carey
If I Never See Your Face Again, Maroon 5 (note: the album version, not the hot mess that features Rihanna. I like Rihanna and all, but NO.)
Smooth, Santana featuring Rob Thomas
And two things:
I've been watching the show Cupid (the one with Jeremy Piven), and it's pretty cool. I heard they're remaking it. Interesting.
Also, I'M GOING TO GO TO THE OPENING SHOW FOR THE DARK KNIGHT!!! It'll be me plus a friend from work, and maybe a few more people (including a guy who looks like a younger Neil Patrick Harris).
