My Summer Playlist

Here’s my list of songs that I’ll always associate with Summer 2012:

Good Time by Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen

While this song has been played over and over again, I can’t help but enjoy the catchy use of synthesizer which evokes a beachy, breezy feel that lets me relax and let loose. At the same time, I can’t help but want to get up and dance.

Home by Phillip Phillips

Partly because it was played under the promotional clips of the Fierce Five during the London 2012 Olympics and partly because the lyrics have become so meaningful to me. I’m not a huge fan of change and this song keeps encouraging me to stand tall and not let fear control my life.
