Summer

In the spirit of Memorial Day weekend, TCH would like to present the following candidates for the Top Five songs that best encapsulate the essence of summer:

1. Frank Sinatra, "Summer Wind"
2. Smashing Pumpkins, "1979"
3. Everything, "Hooch"
4. Sugar Ray, "Every Morning"
5. Snoop, "Gin and Juice" (or The Gourds' cover version)

Honorable Mention: Len, "Steal My Sunshine"; The B-52's, "Summer of Love"

  3. I can listen to all of Yo La Tengo's *I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One* (including, oddly, "Autumn Sweater") all summer long.

  4. The Zombies "Time of the Season." Used in, like, every movie ever soooo maybe the power of subliminal suggestion is responsible here.
