Song of the Day: March 25
"Groovy Little Summer Song" by James Otto
#song of the day
#it's not at all summer yet but it is spring!!
#it's chilly when the wind blows and the dew-damp sticks around until noon but the sun is out and the sky is maybe not clear but close!
#spring!!!!
#I put my first early plantings in the garden today
#I had planned for a bunch of marigolds but I got a different batch of flowers instead
#so now what's down is rootings for a bunch of perennial flowers
#sea holly and red-hot pokers and butterfly weed and hollyhocks
#and then my little pea plants
#I told Kelly I'd share pictures but for today it only looks like a square of dirt--I'll definitely share pics when my sprouts come in!!
#beautiful beautiful garden times
#summer of 2010 when this song came out was the first time in three-ish years I'd spent much continuous time with my family
#my littlest siblings were old enough to be away from Mom for a while and still young enough to be lulled to sleep by the car
#and Mom was very eager to be left home alone to sleep (and play this weird chicken bowling game she was briefly addicted to)
#and so we went on a lot of long leisurely pointless car rides and we listed to a lot of
#(I will never not hear this in my head) 96.9 The Kat! country music radio
#and this got added to the short list of songs I sang to myself
#it's so catchy!! cute fun moderately-bouncy little earworm and my voice cruises up and down it so easy
#'when the days start gettin warmer / the sun starts sinkin slower / weekends go by faster / and beer starts tastin colder
#wanna tune into a station / takes me on a soul vacation / hey there mister dj / come on won't you please play'
#and crucially Dad did not mind this song--which could not be said for 'There Is No Arizona' by Jamie O'Neal
#or (after I sang it approximately ninety million times) 'Just What I Do' by Trick Pony
#we also had--this was very fun for me--we had exactly one CD we could play in the car (because it was stuck in the disk player)
#and that was Joe Diffie's 'Third Rock From The Sun'
#so many songs of absolute joy on that album. lucky as hell that Dad agreed because it meant we'd crank it up so loud
#close my eyes and let the sun shine all red through my eyelids
#sing some real dumbass enjoyable-as-all-getout songs at the top of my absolute voice
#Dad laughing and singing along and the littles sleeping through the all of it like the precious babies they were
#these are the songs of sunshine and pointless happiness! it's not summer but it will be! my garden doesn't have plants yet but it will!
#sing a song!!
