The big bad weather man, who has been such a total dick to us this year, has threatened the day and the weekend with summer storms. That’s ok – I’ll take a summer storm over a winter storm any day of the year. We are due to visit Missy and Joe and their sons Cameron and Julian this weekend, and nothing can dampen our spirits. We had such a lovely time last year, we’ve been looking forward to this for a while.
In honor of that, and the start of this summer season, another summer song to set the scene and theme. This is ‘Summer Sun’ by Koop.
HEY, SUMMER SUN
YOU ALWAYS SMILE
CLOUDS IN THE SKY
YOU NEVER MIND
HAPPY OR SAD
YOU ALWAYS SHINE
NEVER BEFORE
I’VE MET YOUR KIND
LOVE HAD NEVER GOT A HOLD ON ME
UNTIL YOU STEPPED OUT OF A DREAM
MY LIFE ONCE A MISERY
NOW YOUR LOVE HAS SET ME FREE
This is a great song for lounging by the pool, or waking to a sun-drenched morning. Ideal for a summer brunch or an afternoon cocktail. Slightly fizzy, a little effervescent, and bubbly beyond belief. Summer haze, summer daze. The sun makes a lot of us just a wee bit giddy. Giddy is good. Giddy-up.
