i am making a summer cd
and i want happy summery songs
or songs that sound great to blast in the car

here's what I have so far:
i need to put them in order!! this is the hard part!

belle and sebastian -a summer wasting
rilo kiley- with arms outstretched
cursive - art is hard
ash - walking barefoot
phantom planet - anthem
ultimate fakebook - perfect hair
phantom planet - california
koufax - it had to do with love
ultimate fakebook - glitter and glue
the good life - your birthday present
rilo kiley - the frug
bright eyes - first day of my life

i need some more suggestions

Ugly Day by Five Iron Frenzy

whoaa... since when do you "blast" music in the car?

ha. ha. ha. ha.

since when do you drive in a car and kimmy is right i had my music on 30 out of 90 and you said it was too loud.

rob says too add...

deftones- minerva
incubus- stellar, pardon me
cursive- art is hard, gentleman caller
good life- happy birthday

i have hypersensitive ears!!!
not my fault!

and i have that good life song on there

it's called "your birthday present"

You definitely have to put The Thrills on there, their upcoming album So Much For City is the best summer album ever, with really uplifting songs like Santa Cruz, Big Sur and Your Love Is Like Las Vegas.

If you're looking for happy summer type songs, Ihave always thought Island In the Sun by Weezer fits that profile great

ya there's a lot of Weezer songs that fit well... personally I'd go for Keep Fishin (or is it gone fishin? no I think it's keep)

Yep, it's Keep Fishin

Flaming Lips, "It's Summertime"
XTC, "Summer's Cauldron" (which would be a good starter for any CD)
Eels, "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues"
Rusted Root, "Send Me On My Way"
G. Love and Special Sauce, "Cold Beverage"
Great Big Sea, "Ordinary Day"
Led Zeppelin, "Ramble On"
OK Go, "You're So Damn Hot"
Poi Dog Pondering, "Aloha Honolulu"
Savuka, "Dela" (from the George of the Jungle soundtrack - greatest movie ever! )
The Strokes, "The Modern Age"
Three Dog Night, "Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog (Joy to the World)" - this song is good for just about anything
Bryan Adams, "Summer of 69" (heeheehee!)

Dammit, now I wanna make a summer CD too!

dude, i don't know about y'all but this summer i'm fealing nostolgic and whatnot. it's like i'm spending most of my time listening to old gin blossoms. man, this is the good life.

That's a good idea. "Until I Fall Away" used to be my favorite song.

and i'm watching empire records as often as i can.

i'm stuck in the 90's guys....help!

I think "Drive" by Incubus has a good summer vibe to it.....

CALIFORNIA, HERE WE COME!!!!

ay girl....if ya like hip/hop type stuff (but not "yeah yeah what" type) check out the song "Where is the Love" by the Blackeyed Peas f/ Justin Timberlake, its their new single and its actually quite a vibin type of song

Fountains of Wayne - Stacys Mom

feeder - seven days in the sun would be fantastic for a summer mix
