As this summer winds to a close, I’m put in mind of my summer anthem from 2008. Whether it was by coincidence, or on purpose, this song just happened to be playing during, or around all the highlights of one of my favourite summers.

#songoftheday: The Raconteurs – Carolina Drama
I’ve been told that one of the big appeals of country music is the storytelling. Here The Raconteurs tap into a bit of that to in this closing track to their second album, Consolers of the Lonely.
#songoftheday: Panic! At The Disco – Northern Downpour
The final single released by Panic! At The Disco before Ryan Ross and Jon Walker split off to form The Young Veins.
#songoftheday: Weezer – The Angel and the One
Weezer have a habit of closing their albums with some pretty great songs, and this closing track from their Red Album is one of my favourites.
#songoftheday: Guns N’ Roses – If The World
For all the flack that Chinese Democracy got, I still say that it’s the most solid album from any of the GNR guys since Appetite for Destruction.
#songoftheday: Panic! At The Disco – Behind The Sea
This album’s just kept growing on me over the years. I can’t get over the fact that it was recorded by four guys that were just turning 20 at the time.
#songoftheday: The Raconteurs – Top Yourself
The rock scene could do with a bit more banjo and slide guitar playing.
#songoftheday: Weezer – Heart Songs
This song from Weezer’s third self-titled album could very well be the perfect theme for this blog. It’s message is pretty much spot on with my motivation to work on this site.
#songoftheday: Tyrone Wells – Use Somebody (Kings of Leon Cover)
A really well done acoustic cover never fails to increase my admiration for a song that I already enjoyed. The stripped back nature gives you that luxury of admiring the little things, and lets all the emotion behind the song shine through that much brighter.
