Memorial Day and the Kickoff to Summer 2011
Since Monday is Memorial Day and thus the unofficial but unspoken kickoff to the summer and given how appropriately balmy and humid it’s been outside lately, I wanted this week’s list to feature 10 quintessential summer tunes.
The Beach Boys – “All Summer Long”
Elvis Costello – “The Other Side of Summer”
Best Coast – “Summer Mood”
Shudder to Think – “Summertime Train”
Hüsker Dü – “Celebrated Summer”
Pavement – “Summer Babe”
The Chills – “Double Summer”
The Undertones – “Here Comes the Summer”
The Fresh and Onlys – “Summer of Love”
Wild Nothing – “Summer Holiday”
