~lovetulip.

[Alomiakoda]

Jefferson Airplane...oooh and the Hair soundtrack


Reminds me of being a weird 13 year old listening to music with my friends in the park

[xZx]

black crowes, blind melon and toploader!

[zopilote]

almost everything that everyone else has said, but at the moment the shins and the new pornographers have provided me with my first summer soundtrack records of this year

[Spyder]

blind melon

Definately!

[Sionnach]

"Summer holiday!" It says "Summer" to me many times in that song.....:P

[butterfly]

hippy music :)

'all right now' by free

[Alomiakoda]

WHile we're on this topic...Muse remind me of Christmas :p

[HappyHaHaGirl]

I listen to a lot of Bob Marley and Stevie Ray Vaughan in the summer.... Marcy Playground, too. :) Yaaaay!

[borut16]

reggae, ska! And that's it. But i listen to everything in the summer, these are just the favourites. :)

[xZx]

lol any music that goes good with Sangria hehe oohooh Santana 'smooth' love that song:D

[Merlin]

For me it's The Beatles, some Syd barrett music, definitely Jefferson Airplane, definitely Donovan, definitely Incredible String Band. Also, most Celtic/new age music is good for the summer (and autumn).



I think The Summer Day Reflection Song By Donovan is just ideal though.

[JOsie]

a lot of the tracks from "...and out come the wolves" by rancid...
at the river - groove armada
old weezer stuff...the sweater song, holiday, my name is jonas, say it ain't so...
really bad trance...like
come with me - special D
Children of the night - Nakatomi
Be cool - Paffendorf
Free - Starsplash
True love never dies - Flip and Fill

ahhh...i love my terrible dance music...

[Peace-Phoenix]

There's nothing quite so summery as that jingle jangle morning you find yourself waking up to the the Byrds singing "Hey Mr Tambourine Man!"

[flowerchild17]

Donovan, Coldplay, Zeppelin, Floyd, Sublime... Donovan's "Riki Tivi Tavi" and Zeps "Over the Hills and Far Away" are the bset summer songs EVER.... And maybe Sublimes "Scarlet Begonias" :d

[Ellie-Rose]

The doors baby!! yeah!!

[flowerchild17]

Also quite true!!





There's nothing quite so summery as that jingle jangle morning you find yourself waking up to the the Byrds singing "Hey Mr Tambourine Man!"

[Jim]

I've always thought of Nick Drake's music as having a somewhat Autumn/Winter feel to it myself... Different strokes for different folks I guess.. :D

[Man_In_A_Shed]

There's nothing quite so summery as that jingle jangle morning you find yourself waking up to the the Byrds singing "Hey Mr Tambourine Man!"




noooooooooooooo i *hate* the byrds with a passion

[Xiola]

I would have to go with the good old Jane's Addiction! Particually 'Summertime Rolls', 'Idiots Rule' and 'To Match The Sun'

[bokonon]

I think one album I'm going be playing a lot over the summer is the new one from The Streets, "A Grand Don't Come For Free". I was impressed with 'Original Pirate Material' but this, for me anyway, blows that one away!

It's a concept album of sorts, having Mike bumming about wondering where his £1000 has disappeared to. But obviously there's much more to hear about his journey. Anyway, I was looking around online to try and find some samples and on The Streets site itself you can listen to the entire album!

http://www.the-streets.co.uk

Check it, it rocks :D

[Smudge]

Summer Breeze- The Iseley Brothers.

Summer The First Time- Bobby Goldsboro

School's Out - Alice Cooper

Touch Me In The Morning - Diana Ross

Sunshine On My Shoulders - John Denver

Lovin' You - Minnie Ripperton

Walking In Rhythm - The Blackbyrds

The Hustle - Van McCoy

Moonlight Feels Right - Starbuck

The Boys Are Back In Town - Thin Lizzy

Loads more- but I'm sure that's enough :D

[zopilote]

was listening this morning, and the la's is definately one of my favourite albums for summer

[Man_In_A_Shed]

what did you think of the new zero 7 album????


i thought it was pretty good, but not as amazing as the first...

[Man_In_A_Shed]

Yeah, 'tis very good to sit and chill to. Have you heard any of Nitin Sawnhey's album Prophesy? its amazing, similar to zero 7, but with more of an Indian sound.

[Rover-Lass]

My boyf got me into Bob Marley this weekend after I bought him the new DVD he's been wanting and now I'm hooked. Perfect summer music!

[butterfly]

[zopilote]

[EarthWhirler]

I think nearly all my favourite music reminds me of summer, so here's a very long list....

Gong
Ozric Tentacles
Led Zeppelin
James - for getting me thru' the comedown after my first Glastonbury festival
The Doors
Abbey Road (Beatles)
The Waterboys - for filling me with the desire to be somewhere else
Green (Steve Hillage) - bought on vinyl in a very weird shop one hot day in Camden
Fields of the Nephilim - for those warm, gothic nights spent in the woods
Praying For The Rain - the only band I ever wanted to be in!! And also very attractive :)
Free......Ravi Shankar......copious amounts of dub & reggae......Smashing Pumpkins......ahhh and loads loads more!!!!

Summer music


Levellers - levelling the land, seems to represent outdoors and the summer.
Don McClean- American Pie - just those reflective summer nights.
The Beatles - Magical mystery tour/Sgt Peppers
Jefferson Airplane
Grateful Dead

[Peace-Phoenix]

Levellers: "Haven't Made It Yet" is exceptionally summery, as are "Far From Home" and "The Boatman" Not forgetting, of course, "What a Beautiful Day, hey hey...."
