Love these. Tom Petty is totally my mood today...summer and chill...
I LOVE that version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow! His voice is like velvet.
Great songs!
You are SO right. I am unfamiliar with a couple of them, but the rest are big sing along favorites.
I love #10, and I love Mazzy Star!
ok, I love your #10...I've been in love with hawaiian music ever since my parents moved there...
Nice! I love that DMB song!
Did I tell you I won tickets to a DMB concert that is 5days before my due date! :) I'm not sure yet if I can go but it would sure be a hoot to see my big-'ol pregnant self rockin' it out to Dave and the aroma of a certain herb all around... Humorous don't you think? :)
I played along as well in my own summer favorites.
Huge fan of Tori Amos. Powerful music it is!
Great list! Hope you had an excellent weekend!
Somewhere over the Rainbow is such a great song. I think I'm going to look it up on iTunes right now.
The Boxer is one of my favorite songs, but I'd forgotten about it!
Most definitely Free Falling.....Love Tom Petty!
The Joker is the ultimate summer song!
EAK is it bad I dont know 1/2 of these - or at least not by name! LOL
Yay for DMB and Tori Amos....you and I have similar music tastes! :-)
Free Fallin' is such a summer song! It reminds me of cruisin' the beach strip in my purple Cabrio convertable or my hubby's Jeep back in college!
Those are some good tunes. I love Free Fallin' too. Tom Petty puts on a good live show, have you ever seen him?
Oh. What. A. Terrific. List. !!!
Music is my any-season getaway.
Also, have you heard Paul Simon's Graceland album? (Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes, Under African Skies, etc) For me, that is just summer all over. I can't even listen to it in the winter--it's too weird! Jordan hates it because it IS a little quirky, but I love it.
love your list!! two step is one of my very favortie DMB songs :)
This is such a classic list. I've liked so many of these songs, but all at different life stages. This is the music-version of my photo album.
The Boxer is seriously one of the best songs EV-ER! What a great list (I <3 Dave Matthews too...)
I'm totally snagging you list on iTunes!
Funny, Tear in Your Hand totally reminds me of the summer after my freshman year of high school and living outside of Boston. Great memories and makes me totally want to bust out some Tori tunes!
(met you today at the conference, Katy from REgarding Peanut!)
