Favorite "Sun or Summer" Songs





*Video*





Ain’t No Sunshine – Bill Withers


Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away.

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away.

And I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know,
Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.

Anne Ducros - Summertime


Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your ma is good lookin'
So hush, little baby, don't you cry

One of these mornin's, you're gonna rise up singin'
you're gonna spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that mornin', there is nothin' can harm you
With Daddy and Mummy, standing by
Don't you, don't you cry

Summer madness was the midnight sign off song that the late Alan Almond used on his Detroit radio show. The show was called Pillow Talk. Three hours of love songs and almond’s syrupy baritone.

Some of the songs were well known while others were more obscure.

just be my Lady by Larry Graham was one of my favorites. Special Lady by Ray, Goodman and Brown was another.

The summer madness close out was great and probably listened to by 40% of people awake at midnight. He would read us closing script between the long high notes and finish with I’m going home and I didn’t say sleep.

The station adjusted formats and he lost his show, never to
Land in radio again. He died last year.

Howdy, PRO!

Was it another good movie? You find some goodies.

I’m trying to decide which of the pix I snapped of this evening’s sunset turned out the best. It was a pretty one and they’re all good.

Agree ;) But it is a great song, even if they had to manipulate Gary Lewis singing to within an inch of his tones (or complete lack of tones).

Howdy, LUV.

I was a bit late, too, and this thread’s flying.

Had a pretty sunset so I went out to snap pix. That got me here a little later than usual.

No, no more shocking surprises today. Just the usual ones ..... a couple of hairballs yakked up. LOL

No telling what happened yesterday but everyone’s fine and dandy so as bad as it looked, it must not have been too serious.

All appendages crossed for y’all to get rain.
None in store for us until MAYBE next week.

“Beautiful Girls” by Van Halen. If sun or summer need to be in the title, then Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love.”

Sunrise, sunset, hey they're all good! :-)

It was a great Polish movie with sub-titles about the Jewish struggles against the Nazis during WWII, a real tear-jerker :-( (but a happy ending)

We barely hit 75 today and a bit of rain is falling now.

Did you ever find the origin of yesterday's mystery?
