Charlotte Hatherley - Summer

Summer is coming
And I hope I feel better by the time it does
Then I could leave my room my cocoon
Find the door and walk out to the sun

Feel like I've moved on
Lessons learnt my mind is feeling calm and so reassured
Yeah things are on the up
I'm on top of the situation I've endured

Took my time to come around
From the day that I was shot down
Oh now I know that

I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do

A Silhouette in the shadows
I drank too much and darkness settled in and drew in me
And oh my bleeding heart did start to repair
And I could clearly see

Open the windows
Serotonin and the vitamins C D and E
Oh let it all sink in to your skin close your eyes
And you can feel the release

Took my time to come around
From the day that I was shot down
Oh now I know that

I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do

Summer is coming
And I hope I feel better by the time it does
Then I could leave my room
and walk out to the sun

I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do

Tried so many ways to come through for you
Tried to get it right and really improve
And yeah I really wanted to
Took my time to come around
Breathing in and breathing out
Won't you see what I can do
When I leave my room

obsessed much?

i challenge that song with The Sundays - Summertime

Do some people wind up
With the one that they adore
In a heart-shaped hotel room?
It's what a heart is for
The bubble floats so madly
Will it stay sky-high?
Hello, partner
Kiss your name bye-bye
Oh, sometimes...

Romantic Piscean
Seeks angel in disguise
Chinese speaking girlfriend
Big brown eyes
Liverpudlian lady
Sophisticated male
Hello, partner
Tell me love can't fail

And it's you and me in the summertime
We'll be hand in hand down in the park
With a squeeze and a sigh
And that twinkle in your eye
And all the sunshine banishes the dark

Do some people wind up
With the one that they abhor
In a distant hell-hole room
The third world war?
But all I see is films
Where colorless despair
Meant angry young men
With immaculate hair
Oh, sometimes...

Get up, a voice inside says
There's no time for looking down
Only a pound, a word
And you're talking to the town
But how do you coin the phrase, though
That will set your soul apart?
Just to touch a lonely heart

And it's you and me in the summertime
And we'll be hand in hand down in the park.
With a squeeze and a sigh
And that twinkle in your eye
And all the sunshine banishes the dark

And it's you I need in the summertime
As I turn my white skin red
Two peas from the same pod, yes we are!
Or have I read too much fiction?
Is this how it happens?
How does it happen?
Is this how it happens?
Now, right now...

YES! the sundays win this one hands down. excellent choice wood.

mmm ,i don't know , probably Third eye blind , Everclear and Nelly Furtado debut album.

poweless is such a summery song.

Your brain Left Yesterday, as if you've actually heard the Charlotte Hatherley album. Fuckin' idiot.

i don't care if i've heard the damn thing or not, summertime still would win. hell, summertime beats out a lot of top songs for a top spot as one of the best summer songs. it's not about the song you chose being bad or anything. it's about summertime being an all around superior song to many, many songs out there. whether it be summer songs or not. it's one of my top ten songs. you've made many comments about artists that you don't know a whole lot about, but hey i don't sweat it. it's your personal preference and that's more than cool. chill.

you're so harsh, baud. lol
high five for the sundays, WLY!!!
haha

alanis' whole "so-called chaos" album reminds me of summer

and paris hilton's "stars are blind" lol

i'll kill you, JV...
lol

Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music.

Mmmbop by Hanson
All Star by Smash Mouth (haha, my friend used to think the line "All that glitters is gold" was "All God's livers is gold." The first time I heard her sing that, I could not stop laughing!)

These songs aren't really summery, but they remind me of summer (they were a big part of my summers years ago)

Mmmbop !!!!!!! ouch the memory had finally gone CC!

hanson's a great example. they're very summer. especially their last one since it came out in the summer. hanson is a good group. another good summer album is flaming red by patty griffin. as well as strangest places.

fuck hanson
they suck
the vocalist is kinda cute though and by cute, i mean girly.

My "respect" for WLY has just completely and utter been obliterated. What has Western pop-culture done to this man's brain????????

Anna Waronka's solo stuff is pretty summery?

waronker!!!
lol

another summery band:

Keaton Simons "Currently" is my summer favorite right now. So soothing, and his vocals are amazing.

second generation jews that think there first generation jews like amy winehouse and matusyahu.$ $

Utopia Parkway - Fountains of Wayne

i'm listening to nico and suddenly, winter came over me and i want to die. after listening to desertshore, i'm gonna listen to Tegan and Sara. their chipmunky voices make me perk up. their catchy melodies make me soar.

So Jealous is a total summer album. it's brilliant.
