This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

songs w/month in title

Post by ice nine »

As I was listening to my iPod on the 'shuttle songs' setting, Tom Waits' November began to play. I starrted to wander about other songs about months of the year. Here's what I have:

February - Dar Williams
July, July - Decemberists
April After All - Ron Sexsmith
September - EW&F
November - Tom Waits
A Long December - Counting Crows

You should add "April Come She Will" by Simon and Garfunkel and "June is Busting Out all Over" Rodgers and Hamerstien for starters. You might also add "November Spawned a Monster"- Morrissey Also October Song Amy Winehouse and October by Broken Bells.

Nice Job Jeremy-allow me to suggest "January Wedding" by the Avett Brothers, "August" by that great old band Love and "Memphis in June" by Julie London a favorite singer of my wife to complete your calendar.

Would also suggest "One Morning in May"- James Taylor for your May Month as "May This Be Love" is really using 'may' [expressing possibility] as an auxiliary verb and not as a noun for the month.

Hey Jeremy,

Luv ya and all, but two of your titles are questionable at best.

The 14th of February by Billy Bragg
October by U2
September Girls by Big Star
Oh What a Night Late December 1963 by Frankie Valli
Winter in July by Bomb the Bass
February Stars by Foo Fighters
the most recent Decemberists album has June Hymn and January Hymn on it, they've also got a month in their bandname.
Talking of which does anyone else remember early 90s Jesus Jones-alikes The 25th of May?
a couple of really awful November songs as well, Gone till November by that Fugees bloke and November Rain by Guns n Roses.
