Occasionally, I see you at Dundas West subway station and I wanted to come up and say you're friend in a box! But you looked like you were rushing... Or at least I think that was you?...

Not related to summer music, but you should check out Broken Social Scene's new music video for "Sweetest Kill." It's my favourite song off of that album and the video is actually pretty crazy!

[TheMainMane]

Glamorous Glowing by Cast Spells.

Pretty much anything with Dave Davison singing. Cast Spells (his solo project) and Maps & Atlases are all I know he's in but the bands signed onto Sargent House seem to play with each other quite often! I recommend the albums "Trees, Swallows, Houses", "You and Me and the Mountain", and "Perch Patchwork" for sure. Not all of the songs but most are very much so summer tunes.

What You Know-Two Door Cinema Club

Summer Skin-Death Cab For Cutie (A CLASSIC)

Congratulations for getting your film screened at Cannes.

[usrnameiwantwastaken]

"Summer Skin", Deathcab for Cutie

[TheSim1derful]

@usrnameiwantwastaken Woa woa we totally picked the same song. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?? Especially since the word 'Summer' is in the title. hahaah

[usrnameiwantwastaken]

@TheSim1derful Ooh another Deathcab fan! Yeah it was kind of a no-brainer :P

I also like a bit of Crystal Castles and Kasabian (though most of their tracks are more on the wintry side).

Any of the tracks off The Vines' album "Highly Evolved" are also really cool summery songs.

:)

[TheSim1derful]

@usrnameiwantwastaken Agree agree agree 100%! I actually saw Death Cab about a week ago. They were fantastic! Like, heavenly. Okay, bragging off.

[usrnameiwantwastaken]

@TheSim1derful Man, I like you! *subscribes*

[TheSim1derful]

@usrnameiwantwastaken Thanks, sista! I have like no videos, though. I'll subscribe to you, too though. Then I can stalk what videos you're favouriting since I'll probably like them!

Flip! (You make me want to use profanity). Congrats on the Cannes screening! As for reccomendations...

I like 'A Community Service Announcement' - Jonathon Boulet (for a chilled vibe). If you want a more upbeat Boulet tune try 'YOU'RE A ANIMAL' (sic), it's got some pretty energetic drumming. Other than that, I still like last years suggestion of 'The Summer' - Josh Pyke.
