Echo Beach - Martha and the Muffins
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
ETA: I'll get "Your Fucking Sunny Day" based on the title alone.
Great song. Uncharacteristically upbeat for them.
Based on the "Vacation" recommendation:
Camper Van Beethoven - "Payed Vacation: Greece"
The Circle Jerks - "Paid Vacation"
The Embarrassment - "Two Week Vacation" (that one's for Tina!)
Vic Chesnutt - "Little Vacation"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"Starless Summer Sky" - Marshall Crenshaw (gorgeous pop song)
"Summer Sun" - Chris Stamey (points for beginning the song with a sodapop "pop")
"I Live For the Sun" - Sun Rays (one of the best non-Beach Boys beach summer songs)
"Like a Summer Thursday" - Townes Van Zandt
"The Summer I Read Colette" - Rosanne Cash
"Here Comes the Summer" - Undertones
"Summer Lies" - Magnetic Fields
"Staying Out for the Summer" - Dodgy (excellent Brit pop power pop song. muy catchy)
Without summer in the title?
"Night Moves" - Bob Seger
"Dancing in the Streets" - Martha and the Vandellas
"Sunny South Kensington" - Donovan (very mod song, actually)
"Sunlight Bathed The Golden Glow" - Felt
"Light and Sun / Reach for the Day" - Polyphonic Spree
"California Sun" - Ramones (and others)
"On Some Faraway Beach" - Brian Eno (clearly a Beach Boys tribute, abstracting them into Eno-land)

It's kind of tacky to mention, I guess, but my band has a pretty summery song about the arts of the Boardwalk--sand sculpture, airbrushing, etc.

I'd say it's pretty relevant, given that I'm across the bay from you, aren't you in Baltimore?

You know, I was going to go to bed early tonight, but now I have about 50 songs to go through on itunes.

Wow. Thanks. I feel like it's Christmas morning. I guess I should start reading this thread regularly, huh?
Speaking of which, I noticed Sean was asking about Bach's Toccata and Fugue. Sean, if you're interested, I've emailed the version I have, played on one of the most beautiful organs I have ever seen (in Lezajsk, Poland).
