What songs do you enjoy for a summers day? I was thinking of making a 2nd CD to this mix, so any suggestions would be great!

Discuss.

Aretha Franklin - Higher

"Your love, liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forevermore"

Ben E King - Stand By Me.

"When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me, so

Darling darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me"

Reminds me of my childhood and of the summer. What's better than that? CLASSIC

Oh and also Dub Be Good To Me by Beats International.

Everyone knows this song. Starts out with this:

"Take fly boss walk jam nitty gritty
You're listenin to the boy form the big bad city
This is jam hot, this is jaaaam hot"

Then it hits that wonderful reggae bassline. SUMMER!

You should get "One Love" by Bob Marley on the second mixtape.

I always just listen to the same stuff I do all year round...*shrugs*

And am I the only one here that hates summer?

I used to, but now that I live in England the temperature never gets to the unbearable levels it did back home, so now I like it 😊

And yeah Bob Marley, anything by him really.

Damian Marley- Catch a Fire

actually just the entire album

Damian Marley- Halfway Tree

Anything by the beachboys.

Some reggea would be nice to.

delays: wanderlust
willard grant conspiracy: here come the rain birds
norah jones: those sweet words
the thrills: santa cruz
U2: beautiful day
red hot chilli peppers: walkabout

Norah Jones?
😕

Not a fan of these groups but the songs are good for the summer...

Shapeshifters- lolas theme
Destineys child- survivor
Kylie- spinning around
Eric Pryds- Call on me
Tony Christie- the raod to armirillo
Audio bullies- shoot you down.

hmm, the whole album 'primitive' by soulfly

Len - Steal My Sunshine

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication

Beach Boys - Surfin USA

Kasabian - Test Transmission (more personal to me really)
