5ive Songs About June and/or Summer

The planet is tilted toward the sun for another few weeks and that means summertime is upon us. The days are getting hotter (unless you're lucky enough to live in southern California like me) and the air conditioners are working overtime (again, not for me). Be sure to wear a jacket to the office.

June Gloom (The Like)
This is what Angelenos call the overcast weather we experience every morning during this time of year. The days start around 6 and the sun comes out around noon. Sure it's depressing, but it always burns off (sometime around July).

Just a Guy (Crash Into June)
I would say it's all about me (most blogs are), but I also play it down with false humility and tell you I'm just a guy who likes to share his music finds with you good people.

Hola Amiga Banana (June's Not Faking)
Not sure what this song is about, but I love the title and the artist has the word June in their name. That's good enough to make this month's playlist.

Over My Head (The Summer Obsession)
Another song I found using the word "Summer" in my search. This one actually has some relevance to my situation, and probably yours, too. Just keep swimming and we'll all make it to shore soon enough.

MacArthur Park (Donna Summer)
After wading through several pages of songs from this artist, I finally gave in and chose this one because I actually live near MacArthur Park. But you'll never catch me down there (unless I need a fake passport for some reason).
