question of the week: summer songs
There are certain songs that are synonymous with summer. You know the ones — whenever you hear them, you can close your eyes and almost smell the salt water and suntan lotion. For me, it's really anything by The Beach Boys or Jimmy Buffett. Eva, my fellow Evite Blog contributor, loves a little Beach Blanket Bingo and the original "Summertime, and the livin' is easy..." from Porgy and Bess.
Your turn! We want to know what songs make you want to hit the beach or sip a drink out of a coconut. Maybe it's one of the classic summer party songs below. Or if you're into more current tunes (hello, Doin' Time by Sublime), tell us your faves in the comments.
