DAY THREE: Song that Reminds Me of Summer
The Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff – Summertime
A bit on-the-nose I’m sure many would say, but when I think
of summer, this is the first song that comes to mind. My first summer job was
in 2009 and it was at a small former popular clothing store, Body Central. Perhaps
the budget for the store’s playlist could’ve been a bit more generous because
this was one of the only songs I remember being played multiple times during
each of my 5-hour shifts. It became the backbone of every cookout playlist
since its release. And, above all, Will Smith rhymed “monotony” with “gotten to
be,” thus proving he is one of the superior lyricists of our time.
Most people don’t even know what monotony means…
