So, Christmas is over, the weather is cold and wet, what do we have to look forward to now?
Oh yes! Of course, we can look forward to the return of the Sun and hot days and long balmy Summer evenings.
Anyway, to banish those Winter blues, here is some Sun-themed music to cheer everyone up.
01 Yes – Heart of the sunrise
02 Its A Beautiful Day – Hot summer day
03 David Gilmour – Fat old sun
04 Primal Scream – Higher than the sun
05 Bob Weir – Walk in the sunshine
06 The Flaming Lips – It’s summertime
07 Cocteau Twins – Frou-frou foxes in midsummer fires
08 Bjork – Sun in my mouth
09 Love – Bummer in the summer
10 Kate Bush – Sunset
11 Dead Can Dance – Black sun
12 Jimi Hendrix – Long hot summer night

Nice! We just got our first nasty big blizzard (that at least had the good manners to wait until the day after Christmas). I have enough wine, coffee, cigarettes, and work to do to keep me housebound for the next couple of days, so i’m looking forward to the playlist. And all of the others i have to catch up on too, it’s kind of overwhelming.
How about ‘Here comes the Sun’, won’t be long now.
Ooh – good idea, Carole. I have a load of “sunshine” songs, maybe I’ll make a list too. If enough of us do, maybe spring will come early!
I loved this playlist, thank you! Been a long time since i listened to Heart of the Sunrise, still sounds so good i’m going to have to give it another listen. Other standouts for me – David Gilmour, Primal Scream, Love (new to me, loved it), and of course, Hendrix.
I meant to post this brilliant tribute to my favourite sun song, seeing as the cd arrived today..
(awesome effort by Tincanman on the drums on this one, btw)
Hey Yu Liang, you have some really AMAZING weinddg shots!!! This pre-weinddg series blows me away. I agree with you 100% nothing can go wrong with a beautiful day and a talented photographer like you. Keep up the good work!
