Question Of The Day, Saturday 1st Of June.

[Norachan]

It's June!

Summer is officially here. I'm so happy! I didn't used to be much of a summer person, until I moved to a place where I get snowed in every winter. Then I learnt how to appreciate those long, hot summer days.



If you had to choose just five songs to listen to all summer, what would they be?

Mine would be;

Three Little Birds by Bob Marley and The Wailers.
Happy by Pharrell Williams.
Opium Tea by Nick Cave.
In Hell I'll Be In Good Company by Dead South and
Hey Ya by Outkast.

I think they all have a good summer feel to them.

What would your mix be?

 

[verna davies]

I'm with you on Happy by Pharrell Williams.
I Feel Good by James Brown
Gonna Buy A Hat by Chris Rea
Miss Otis Regrets by Bette Midler
Stumped on a 5th one, but those four will do me nicely thank you.

I misread your question, Norachan

If you had to choose just five songs to listen to all summer, what would they be?

I'm sorry...

 

[MonaLyssa33]

I've Got You Under My Skin by Frank Sinatra
Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News (one of my go-to running songs)
Footloose by Kenny Loggins (my other go-to running song)
Ain't Nobody (Gonna Turn Me Around) by Aretha Franklin
Nobody But Me by Michael Buble

 

[Graceful-Lily]

People here probably never heard of these songs but they're still jammin' to me.

Theif In The Night - Justus West

The Distance - Mariah Carey (still on repeat from last year - think I spelt her name wrong)

Hey Up There - Buddy (ft. ???)

Golden - Jill Scott (Kaytranada Remix)

Together We're Screwed - Robotoki (ft. ???)

This is all off the top of my head...

 

[kashmir64]

There is no way I'd be happy with only 5 songs. However..

Being Evil Has a Price - Heavy Young Heathens
Badlands - Bruce Springsteen
Madness - Muse
Where the Streets Have No Name - U2
Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath

These would be my winter songs also.

 

[aliceneko]

I mostly listen to Korean music nowadays:

Mikrokosmos - BTS
Spring Day - BTS
Love4eva - LOONA
Paper Plane - NCT 127
I Loved You - Day6

 

[Norachan]

I'm sorry...

That's OK, I'll let you have a few extra songs.
