spring a sprung sprang

in florida, there is no spring. so i have to remind myself that everywhere across the nation people are in a fucking splendid mood. and as friday draws near, i am as well. matt told me it's finally beautiful in baltimore, so here you go.

tender forever- feelings of love
this song has been on repeat for awhile for a number of reasons-- like a more respectable postal service. granted, it's incredibly cheesy ("remember that feeling of love, when we were oh so close..."). but doesn't spring remind you of other springs when you were incredibly happy and running through green fields? no? well... sorry. just wait til the drum beat and hand claps kick it.

the concretes- chosen one
i'll always love the voice of the concretes, there's no denying a scandinavian accent. another spring love song asking if you've seen this cute little girl's chosen one, sad and sweet. when it comes to fallin in love, it runs me over.


the essex green- don't know why (you stay)
i bought an essex green record when i was sixteen and gave it away. something tells me they got better. although the opening is a little "done" sounding, it quickly becomes one of my favorite driving songs, mostly for its sing along value. tambourines and some ladies make this song irrestibly lovable.
