sweet summer songs

Every summer has its song. Happy, simple and sweet. It's the anthem of a lighter, easier time  - a kick back, sip a beer on a patio kinda time. This one's been stuck in my head since I heard it, if not the song of my Summer, then at least a contender (along with Felicia and pumped up kicks).

Alexander (the lead from Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros) is as relaxed as it gets. In his solo work, just like in Edward Sharpe, the lyrics are lovely. A kaleidoscope of colours, effortlessly weaving a  picture for all to see hear.
