What songs means summer to you when you listen to them? What are the songs that remind you of sunny summer days?
What is the summer hit of 2011?

And if you post videos or links, we can all give it a listen. :P

Ah summer...the return of the thunderstorms, the freshest produce at the market, green farm fields, ridin around with the windows down, fishing! oh the fishing! i love summer!

I can't think of any particular songs at the moment. But in general?

Listening to a country radio station driving down a dirt road with the window down. That means summer to me.

:P

I'll try and be more specific in the future, when my brain decides to work. :lol:

Ummm let's see....

"L'Alizé" - Alizée


"Gourmandises" - Alizée


"Let Go" - Frou Frou


To be honest, I don't listen to a lot of summer songs or summer-themed songs.

@Aerlinn: Oh...Jonsi. Amusingly enough it was that album that caused me to lose interest in not only Jonsi himself but Sigur Ros as well. I don't know why.

Here's a few more I just thought of.

And one of my favorite summer songs ever, makes me think of the lake, and it looks just like my second home!
Craig Morgan-Redneck Yacht Club

Since it's winter here, can't say I know what 2011 summer hits would be. Going by it being 'Summer' last January, I was listening to Lords of Wong ~ Re-entry (Its the third song on their player).

Summers past have their hits as well... some I remember offhand...

Well, I feel rather...jumpy this summer. :goofy: While I was browsing some videos on YouTube I accidentally bumped into these guys - Italobrothers. Their songs are quite catchy and since I'm in a jumpy mood I liked them. I'm not usually into that kind of music, but oh well, I'll make an exception this time. :P








Also I'm still in hold of Epica's concert, which took place in Sofia in March. Really good concert, I was charmed by the band's attitude to it's fans. Anyway, here are some of my favourite songs from their last album.









And at the end - one of my favourite old bands, Omega and their epic song "Girl With The Pearl's Hair"
Original version:
