Spring playlist
For some bizarre reason, Amy requested that I create for her a playlist of seasonal songs for spring/summer. So I'm obliging today with the bloggedy blog spring collection. I'll tackle the summer one a little later. (The summer playlist will be much easier. There are so many great summertime songs.)

This is actually the first time I've tried to come up with a seasonal playlist, and it's been an interesting exercise, so thanks, Amy, for stretching my mind. What a good teacher you must be. I hope I get an "A."

Any additions, comments, and polite critiques are welcome in the comments form.

A spring playlist for Amy
Track 1. "Beautiful Day," U2 -- or if you're tired of this song, alternatively try "Turn, Turn, Turn," by the Byrds
Track 2. "Good Day Sunshine," The Beatles
Track 3. "Free Falling," Tom Petty -- a great tune for driving down the highway with the convertible top down or the windows rolled down (a la Jerry McGuire)
Track 4. "Beautiful World," Devo
Track 5. "Ants Marching," Dave Matthews Band -- I hear this tune in my head every time those tiny little ants invade my bathroom in the spring
Track 6. "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?" Creedence Clearwater Revival -- good for those rainy spring days
Track 7. "Graceland," Paul Simon
Track 8. "Righteously," Lucinda Williams
Track 9. "Roadrunner," Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers -- another good driving song
Track 10. "Take It Easy," the Eagles
Track 11. "Naive Melody," Talking Heads
Track 12. "Amy," Pure Prairie League -- I threw this one in, just for grins (like you've never heard that song before, eh?)
