Summer Mix Part 1


A Nice summer afternoon with some rain to take the heat off...

Caroline, No - Beach Boys
a song to play by the sunset.. of nostalgia, disappointment and love.

Visions of Tokyo- This is Oxford
just a fun song that has that beach feeling.

Homesick- Kings of Convenience
how i feel these days. you can picture yourself sitting by the windowsill looking out the window. are you sitting inside or locked out?

I lose some sales and my boss won't be happy
But I can't stop listening to the sound
Of two soft voices mended in perfection
From the reels of this record that I found
Everyday there's a boy in the mirror
Asking me what are you doing here
Finding all my previous motives
Growing increasingly unclear

I’ve travelled far and I’ve burned all the bridges
I believed as soon as I hit land
All the other options held before me
Will wither in the light of my plan
So I loose some sales and my boss won't be happy
But there’s only one thing on my mind
Searching boxes underneath the counter
On a chance that on a tape I’d find
A song for
Someone who needs somewhere
To long for

Homesick
Cause I no longer know
What home is

Postales- Federico Aubele
I saw them in concert with Thievery Corp. Awesome.

Cambodia- Kim Wilde
Very 80s feeling song. Was in a movie i just saw.. Dans Paris. in probably the best scene in the movie.

She Loves Everybody- Chester French
New band signed by Pharrell. Again, just fun, great sound.

Paper Planes- M.I.A

Photographs are not memories- Victor Bermon

The Look of Love- Sergio Mendes
Always a classic..

Light My Fire- Astrud Gilberto
A summer evening.. music, good company, candles and wine.

Changes- Seu Jorge
Also in concert with Thievery Corp when i saw them.. perfect for my rainy day. I think i like this version better than the Bowie original. Heartbreaking.

You and I- Dennis Wilson
Another California feeling sound. Recently reissued.

Summerlong- Paper Cuts

A Summer Song- Chad and Jeremy

Your Summer Dress- Dirty on Purpose

Sweet and Low Ponies in the Surf.

Endless Summer..


This is how summer should feel like. the movie "endless summer" call me nostalgic... but when i walk out everyday, i don't feel summer. i feel like urban hell. :) maybe i should move back to california...

"a summer chill" - this is ivy league. that's my first song of summer.

i'm still reading (re reading) sun also rises.
"it is awfully easy to be hard-boiled about everything in the daytime, but at night it is another thing"
so terribly true. in one sentence, life is explained. at night, even if you're with someone, aren't we all just a bit lonely?
