Hey, help me with something!

[Twitchy]

Trying to make the ultimate summer CD.

 

Yerp.

 

Not songs about summer, just songs that... Sound like summer?

 

Yeah.

 

 

Basically, songs similar to these.

 

1. Someday -- The Strokes

2. All For You -- Sister Hazel

3. Last Night -- The Strokes

4. Float On -- Modest Mouse

5. Run-Around -- Blues Traveler

6. Barely Legal -- The Strokes

7. But Anyway -- Blues Traveler

 

 

 

No more Strokes or Blues Traveler please... :D Is This It? is just such an upbeat summery album though. And same with Blues Traveler...

 

But yes.

Suggestions for more?

ALL THE SONGS FROM GREASE

 

<.<

 

 

Summer lovin' had me a blast

Summer lovin', happened so fast

I met a girl crazy for me

I met a boy, cute as can be

 

Summer days driftin' away,

To uh-oh those summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more,

Did you get very far?

Tell me more, tell me more,

Like, does he have a car?

 

She swam by me, she got a cramp

He went by me, got my suit damp

I saved her life, she nearly drowned

He showed off, splashing around

Summer sun, something's begun,

But uh-oh those summer nights

 

Tell me more, tell me more,

Was it love at first sight?

Tell me more, tell me more,

Did she put up a fight?

Took her bowlin' in the Arcade

We went strollin', drank lemonade

We made out under the dock

we stayed up until ten o'clock

 

Summer fling don't mean a thing,

But uh-oh those summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more,

But you don't gotta brag

Tell me more, tell me more,

Cause he sounds like a drag

 

He got friendly, holdin' my hand

Well she got friendly, down in the sand

He was sweet, just turned eighteen

Well she was good, you know what I mean

 

Summer heat, boy and girl meet,

But uh-oh those summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more,

How much dough did he spend?

Tell me more, tell me more,

Could she get me a friend?

 

It turned colder, that's where it ends

So I told her we'd still be friends

Then we made our true love vow

Wonder what she's doin' now

 

Summer dreams ripped at the seams,

But oh, those summer nights
