I live in the Northeast US. We've been having a lot of crazy and crappy weather lately. It seems like it has rained for almost 2 weeks. We just had a cold spell and snow. To make my self think along the lines of spring/summer I love listening to Feist. Her voice is so soothing and is perfect music for thinking warm. Makes me thing grilling and barbecues. What song or artist makes you think of the warm weather?

The first song that came to my mind was "Hotel California" by The Eagles followed by "Thunder Island" by Jay Ferguson, then accented by "Dreamweaver" by Aerosmith The list is longer than this but these are three I really enjoy.

Very good choices. I'm not familiar with the Thunder Island one but know the other two. They do seem to represent summer thoughts.

I also live in the Northeast and today we had 85 degree weather after having snow for Easter and rain since. The one song that sticks out in my head that always makes me think of summer is "Summertime" by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. :0 As I sit here, diggin around in my brain looking for another song, absolutely nothing else comes to mind. Oh well. :)

Very nice. Yeah it was gorgeous weather here this past weekend. Could not have asked for anything better. It has since cooled off a bit but at least it is not snowing. And the rain hasn't been too bad either.

A lot of Kenny Chesney's music makes me feel like summer is the air and is coming here. It seems I should have another one that reminds me of summer and makes me feel just giddy...but its just not coming to mind.

Very nice. I hate it when you know of something but just cannot think of it. Drives me crazy. I don't listen to much country but there is some I do not mind sometimes. =)

Ah yeah. It's been forever since I have heard "Summertime". Now I really want to listen to it. Very good choices.
