Every so often summer comes with a song. For whatever reason, sometimes I’ll hear a song that will seem to capture the essence of the season. Last summer it was Micheal Franti’s “Sound of Sunshine.” Since it is already mid August and nothing had really hit me yet, I was beginning to think that it was going to be one of those songless summers.
This evening I heard “Short Skirt / Long Jacket” on The Spectrum and immediately knew I had my summer song. I was surprised when I learned that it came out in 2001.
Here’s what some others think.
And here’s the song.
Anybody else have a summer song?
