i need some kick ass summertime songs for my class, because we are putting together a magazine and i got the music part. so just write any good summertime music you can think of please! thankz!
Sly & The Family Stone-Hot Fun In The Summer Time The Who/Blue Cheer(I forgot who orginally wrote the song)-Summertime Blues
The original song was by Eddie Cochran. Janis Joplin & Big Brother and The Holding Company - Summertime The Youngbloods - Sunlight (from their live album 'Ride The Wind') Feel Flows - The Beach Boys And It Stoned Me - Van Morrison White Bird - It's A Beautiful Day Crimson & Clover - Tommy James & The Shondells Summer In The City - The Lovin' Spoonful Paper Sun - Traffic Time Has Come Today - The Chambers Brothers Come In The Morning, Omaha, and Someday - Moby Grape (all from their first album) And Your Bird Can Sing - The Beatles (from Revolver) Mellow Yellow - Donovan
California Dreamin always seemed like a summer song to me, even if it has lines that go "All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray"
The three musicians/bands I think of when I think of summer music are Bob Marley, James Taylor and Sublime.
Belle and Sebastian - A Summer Wasting....yey. The Black Seeds - On The Sun and anythign by Katchafire, especially Giddy Up, Rainbow and Hey Girl.
Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime The Archies - Sugar Sugar Dick Dale - Miserlou The Monkeys - Pleasant Valley Sunday The Ventures - Walk, Don't Run Elvis Presley - Mystery Train Chuck Berry - No Particular Place to Go The Rolling Stones - Sympathy for the Devil Jackson 5 - I Want You Back Dusty Springfield - Son of a Preacher Man N.W.A. - Express Yourself (or the original version by Charles Wright) King Floyd - Groove Me Isaac Hayes - Walk On By Santo & Johnny - Sleepwalk The Rivieras - California Sun (or the remake by the Ramones) EDIT: You could also add some G-funk, depending on how diverse you want your list to be. If so, maybe Dr. Dre's Nuthin' But a "G" Thang or Warren G's Regulate.
