Lay Back In The Sun

Well that was a long winter I have to say, but it looks like the season has finally changed. Spring is here, and to confirm and make it official last night the clocks changed to British summertime. Yeah I'm not happy about losing an hours sleep last night but I'm sure the long evenings will make up for it. I just hope that the British summer gives us more than the usual few weeks of warmth this year.
So here’s a couple of songs to celebrate the coming of the summer. First of all Spiritualized. Okay so you might not think that Spiritualized are the obvious summertime band, but occasionally Jason Pierce writes a good time feel song, such as Lay Back In The Sun from the album Pure Phase.
‘Hey take it right down,
Lay back in the sun.
Gonna have me some good times, good, good dope and good fun.’

Lambchop are hardly the most summer good time band either. But their song Up With People is one of the most uplifting songs that I know of. Right from the opening clean guitar chords, to the hand claps, then the choir like backing vocals and then the horns come in near the end to soar it up to a whole new level of bliss.
