Being the SITS gals FB, I mean!!!
Because I need your help.
My ipod selections are D*U*L*L!
I need to 'summer' it up a little bit!
Music is a huge part of life. Most of our major life changing moments have a song.
A song you played over and over again to ease your heart break.
Or a song you danced and laughed to.
A song you graduated to.
Played while giving birth.
Be-bopped to in your cars.
Buried your loved ones to music.
Got married to music.
And, most importantly, drove around with the windows down BLARING good old '80s tapes, like Def Leppard or Motley Crue. Right, Heather, my '80s lovin' friend?
Now, my very welcome visitors, I need you to help me by telling me your favorite summer songs.
Now, my very welcome visitors, I need you to help me by telling me your favorite summer songs.
I'm hoping to be out of this cast soon and on my way to walking and taking off this butt weight I put on and I need to work on my ipod.
Give it to me people.
Just a couple.
Each.
Please?
I promise to have them ALL on my ipod when I come out to SITScation in October!
Because, people, H*E*L*L*O, it's VEGAS!!
And October in Vegas still requires summer tunes!
Thanks so much for coming by today!!
And thanks to our awesome SITS gals for all their hard work in the blog community!
And don't forget:
and just because you haven't quite finished your coffee yet and your boss doesn't mind paying you to read my blog, go here.
Enjoy!! I hope you'll come back again sometime soon!

Simon and Gar songs -too many!
Happy SITS Day!
Sadly, I have misplaced my iPod... It's not lost... I just can't find it. But, I love any Bon Jovi songs. And I am still in love with Jon Bon Jovi... I think he is still so hot even though he's in his 40s now... :)
Hope you have a great day!
Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynrd is always a good one...
All Summer Long by Kid Rock is a good one...
and my boys are loving for me to crank up "So What!" by Pink and for us all to scream..I mean sing it while going down the road!

Sixpence None the Richer "Kiss me"
The Ataris "Boys of Summer"
Metro Station "Shake it"
Nickelback "If Today Was Your Last Day"
Rascal Flatts "Life is A Highway"

congrats on being the sits fb - i'm pretty sure i've been to your blog before! i'm always hassling my teenage girls to update my ipod, but they can't ever be bothered! miss 17 just plugged mine in and itunes won't even recognise it - i feel so left out!
we just had 'kids of 88' playing - take you back my house
I love The Coasters. Old but fun ;)
Happy SITS day! :) I'm loving Regina Spektor this summer...
I usually listen to audiobooks on my mp3 player (yah, I'm boring *L*) but two songs that always make me wanna dance and move are This is How a Heart Breaks by Rob Thomas and Canned Heat by Jamiroquai. Happy SITS day =)
Congrats on being the FB today! How about Love Shack? That's always been one to get me up and moving!
Happy SITS day!
I agree, music is the driving force behind just about everything. Every memory is tied to a song, even the bad ones.
The shins make great summer music and Acrade Fire,Funeral(I know it doesn't sound like summer, but the feeling is there), hope you like.
=)
Good morning SITS FB Superstar!

Hiya ! Congrats on being the FB. I'm not sure if this is a summer song, but I just rediscovered it, and can't stop playing it:
Where is the love by Black Eyed Peas
Hi! I must admit that I am hooked on Yanni's new Voices album. It's on my iPod, and it's very romantic new-Age stuff.
Congratulations on your SITs feature! I hope you enjoy your day in the sun:-)
As for a song, I got married to "I Could Not Ask for More" by Edwin McCain.
Congratulations on being the featured blogger -- woo hoo! I'm coming over from SITS and my all time favorite summer song is Otis Redding's "Dock of the Bay" ...
Have a great week!
Beth
Happy SITS day!
Can't wait to explore your blog!
Wendy
Bumblebees and Bugladies
I am not sure why, but when I read your post on music that makes you "remember"..I immediatley thought of Huey Lewis and The News! (yup, I'm an 80's gal). Lately I feel like "Hip To Be Square" is my theme song and hubs and I always joked "Happy To Be Stuck with You" was OUR theme song. Congrats on your SITs Day!

Forgot to leave song recommendations.
Hmm....I think my fave song so far this summer is Best Days of Your Life by Kellie Pickler and anything by Taylor Swift.
Sorry, I'm a country girl.
Happy SITS day!
I highly recommend Daylight by Matt & Kim. You cannot be still or unhappy when that song comes on.
Congrats on the FB!
Lucky you, going to Vegas with the Sistas!!!
Have a great time.
I can't think of any songs at the moment if I think of any I'll be back
Enjoy your day!
Cindy
Congrats on your SITS Day!! Enjoy!!
Old school pick would HAVE to be "Summer Time" by Wil Smith or DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince whatever he was calling himself then. LOVE IT STILL!
Newer would be "put a ring on it" by Beyonce because it just cracks me up and just picturing those girls dancing their booties off in the video would make me want to walk.
Neither of these are new songs but I rarely listen to the radio so it's slim pickin' in my brain right now!
I enjoyed your blog today! Thanks!
Congrats on your big day. And, did you say you'er going to SITScation?! Cool! I'm going too. Can you say excited?! And, for music. You probably don't want my real faves b/c I have the musical taste of a 15 year old. But, one of my all time old school favorites of summer is Will Smith/DJ Jazzy Jeff's Summertime. Always puts me in the summer mood:)
Happy SITS FB Day!!
Songs that trigger memories for me... "Fooled Around and Fell In Love" (Elvin Bishop), "I'll Still Be Lovin' You" (Restless Heart), "Leave It All Behind" Amy Grant....just off the top of my head. There are so many more....
What I need to get is an IPod! LOL!
Happy "You" day!
I love Madaonna, Rolling Stones, Beetles, Billy Joel, Moby...
but my family song is by Paul Simon
My Momma loves me! :)
Have a great day...my friend.
Happy FB day and ANYTHING Queen! Especially Bohemian Rhapsody. Can't hear it enough! Even got my kids singing it in the car with me! Here from SITS!
happy SITS day!!!!!!
I think jimmy Buffet is soooo "summer"!!!!!
happy SITS day! I am listening to Coldplay alot this summer but Jack Johnson too!
I am a music girl, too, it's my life and marks any event or milestone. I feel like we're kindred spirits! AND I was JUST planning this exact post for my blog so I'm all set.
My all time favorite summer song is What a Wonderful World/Somewhere Over the Rainbow the Israel Kamakawiwo'ole version. Click here to watch the video and I promise his voice will give you goosebumps:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ltAGuuru7Q
So nice for sits to lead me to you, what a fun FB post :)
Congrats on being FB! While I can't drink coffee (pregnant) I can certainly peruse your blog, and the others you recommended :) Your posts are funnneeee!
Congrats on being Saucy today! I'm sorry that I have no tune suggestions. I think I might be boring that way ;-)
You are hilarious. I loved your "a little about me" blurb. I am going to read some more on your site. So nice to get a featured blogger entertaining enough to want to bookmark. I will be back to follow your posts.
Honestly, there's no way I could narrow it down to one or a few songs. I have hundreds of songs on my ipod and they range from Emenim to Kenny Chesney to Blue Tree.
I'd have to say the band I've been listening to the most lately is Little Big Town and I like "Wild at Heart" by Gloriana but you really can't go wrong with some of the other suggestions from before me.
Congrats on being the FB!
WooHoo....congratulations on your day in the SITS sun!
Wow...it's hard to pick music for others. There is so much out there and it all depends on the time of day and the mood we are in at the moment. :-)
But When I think of Vegas, I think the Dandy Warhols......with songs like "Smoke It"...."Shakin". Or maybe LCD Soundsystem....with "Give It Up". Or how about Stereophonics....their songs "Pedalpusher", "Superman" and "Mama Told Me Not to Come"
Good morning and Happy SITS Day....just from reading today's post I see why they chose you. Your comments about how music marks so many events in our lives are so 'on the mark.' Here an couple oldie-but-goodie from me:
Brown Eyed Girl---Van Morrison
My kids watched "Back to the Future" for the first time this weekend. How about some Huey Lewis?
Happy SITS Day.
Happy SITS Day! Congrats on your feature!
Hi Good morning and congrats on your SITS day. I'm off to check you out:)
Great post!
Congrats on being featured!
Oh and I'm lovin' Rascall Flatts and Lady Gaga right now!
Hey There stopping by from SITS. Love your blog.
I would have to say the best song ever is Bring Me To Life by Evanessace.
If you want some help with your "butt" weight (lol that was cute the way you put that) go have a look at my blog at http://sherisstory.blogspot.com/
Make sure to scroll down and see the pics I have posted there.
Have a GREAT day!!
Congrats on your SITS day! I totally agree! Music is a major part of my life (the reason I have music notes tatooed behind my ears) and the boss is definitely paying me to read and write my comments, sad, but true)
I love so many types of music: here's a few summer treats:
Home Sweet Home-motley Crue for the summer away from my first boyfriend (age 11)
Miami- Will Smith- for the summer living in ME with my little ones
Bob Dylan's greatest hits- now playing
Well, I have to give you a couple.
This one is my favorite song, EVER! It makes me stop, slow down, and just listen every time I hear it.
Delta Rain by The Blessing
As far as fun songs for summer...I have to go with these:
Welcome to Miami by Will Smith
Just Dance by Lady Gaga
And as far as just great music...
Anything by the Pet Shop boys or Moby. I love it!
Congrats on your feature today!!! Enjoy your SITS spotlight!
Congrats on being featured today, SITSta! Hope you enjoy your day...
Happy SITS day. Your iPod dilemma is very timely. I just download or is it uploaded 150 news songs to mine. We I say "I" I really mean my 12 year old did. But she found some great flashback songs... how's about...
Rick Springfield Jessie's Girl!
totally classic!
I'll check back for the complete recommendation list and maybe find some more keepers. Have a great day!

Happy SITS Day to you!
On my iPod right now? Well, nothing makes my day like a little Hootie and the Blowfish, Earth Wind and Fire (September is my fav), INXS, Matt Nathenson, etc.
Hope your iPod is filled to the max!
Congrats on your SITS day!
Summer Music:

Just a few that I can't help singing along too....the last one is one a bloggy friend reminded me of a couple days ago...fun to dance to.
My favorite summer song would have to be "Summertime" by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince.
...stopping by from SITS...
Happy SITS Day!!! Love "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles and "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. I don't have an ipod (i know - how sad! lol) but those songs would definitely be on my list. :)
I've recently become obsessed with Broadway, so I'm all about the Original Cast Albums - my current favorite? Hair.
Way to go FB
I like these songs to...

Oh, Rhonda...I'm so EXCITED for you! Enjoy your SITS day in the sun!!!
RHONDA!!!!!
CONGRATS. CONGRATS. HOW Exciting!!!!
Yeah! Another Canadian! So, of course I have to suggest an iPod song that would meet the CRTC's CanCon requirements. How about "Life is a highway", by Tom Cochrane - a good roadtrip song. For Vegas, I think anything by Michael Buble would be appropriate. Have fun!
Congratulations!!!! Happy SITS Day!! You so deserve it hun!
Songs:
I love Donna Summer anything!! You can't sit still! DISCO BABY!!!!!!
Rhonda, So glad to have found your blog. How about these two songs. 80's- Our lips are sealed and Earth wind and fire's- September. Can't wait to see your list.Looking forward to reading more of your blog!
Well I was in High School during the eighties and hair bands were the thing. I have to say I still love Tesla, KISS, Motley Crue...and many others Happy SITS Day!
Happy SITS Day to you! And you have gotta love the Beach Boys for the ultimate summer music.
I actually just added Lady Gaga to my ipod, it's great to workout to.

Congrats on being SITS featured blog! Hmmm, songs... see, I like too many songs to call it a favorite. I asked my hubby what his favorite song was at the moment and he responded with "Candle Box." I have no idea what that is though and he has strange taste in music. Lol.
Happy SITS Day!
My MP3 (too cheap for an iPod) has mostly Bon Jovi - Wanted, Bad Name, It's My Life, Lost Highway, Keep the Faith, Bounce, Everyday... you can't go wrong with anything Bon Jovi!
And summertime music? The Beach Boys, of course! Just download their entire Best Of album. I can't go to the beach without them blasting. They are quintessential summer music.
Hey Sits Girl!! Congrats...and enjoy your day! My favorite song of all time is "land slide" by Fleetwood Mac! This song is so beautiful and powerful too...you've gotta check it out! Oh, you also need to check out my new blog when you get the chance. It's all about decorating and DIY stuff...oh, and Mom stuff too!
Happy SITS day! My favorite song right now is "I've got a feeling" by Black Eyed Peas...gets you moving!
Great blog. Happy SITS day..
How about I went out Last night?
By: Kenny Chesney...
Happy Sits day to you! Great writing style! I don't enjoy the crappy drivers either! They frustrate me so much! Sometimes I would just rather stay inside than have to deal with them!
Congrats on being the FB today!! I really loved the post on puddle jumping. It reminded me of playing wiffle ball in the rain when my boys were little (they are 18 & 21 and out of the house now). Your photos are gorgeous, as are your girls.
As for music, I'm right there with Heather - can't beat an 80's hair band - EVER!!! One of my favorite songs to rock out to is MeatLoaf's "Life is a Lemon".
Enjoy your day in the sun!!

Love to you,

Happy Feature Day!!! My songs are more 60s & 70s - America, Horse with No Name is a definite summer song to me. Gilbert O'Sullivan, Alone Again. Bill Withers, Ain't No Sunshine.

Betcha never heard of most of these LOL! Have a great SITS Day!!
I like Unwritten by Natasha Beddingsomething. I try to keep that song in mind when I'm super stressed about stuff. It's great in the car because I can practically FEEL all of my worries being carried away on the wind.
I am not such a great music buff - but I enjoy Kelley Clarkson, Plumb, and almost all of country music.
OH and happy SITS DAY!!! :)
Big SITS shout-out! How about Alannah Myles' "Black Velvet" for a warmup song?

Happy SITS day!! :)

OMG - your blog is so funny... glad to have found it thru SITS (I'll be following) and congrats on being the FB, of course!
Okay, two of my new faves right now are 1) Sometime Around Midnight (by The Airborne Toxic Event) and 2) Ain't No Rest for the Wicked (by Cage the Elephant). Both good songs to work out to, I think.
One request: if you get some other ridiculously good songs, you have to pass them on to your readers... deal?? :)

d
Congrats on the Sits girls page. Be sure to say hello at Sitscation, I'll be there Friday night and I'll be looking for you.
I am so not the person who even has an ipod.
Keep bloggin, stopped by from SITS.
Happy SITS Day Sitstah! Consider yourself "followed!"
For awesome ideas on the type of music you like, I highly suggest going to visit Pandora.com. You create your own radio station with ONLY music you like based on your like/dislike votes for each song. That website saves me during those long, boring work days. You could use it to find more stuff you like.
Have a great week!

Happy SITS day! I've enjoyed my visit - love your style! I'll definitely be back.
I'm giving away a book! http://lemonologie.blogspot.com/2009/07/dying-for-mercy-giveaway.html
Congrats on your SITS FP feature! Made me smile!
Hi Rhonda,
It' so nice to meet you! Congrats on your special SITS Day! Your blog is wonderful and fun.
Katy Perry's "Waking Up In Vegas".
A must have for sure!
Have a blessed day.
~Warmly, Melissa :)
Happy SITS day. I have always loved They Might Be Giants "Birdhouse In Your Soul." You can't help but be happy when you listen to that song.
Happy SITS day!
I have mostly stuff from the 80's on my iPod, but I also like the new Keith Urban cd and Rascal Flatts! :D
I so love 80s music! However, Def Leppard isn't quite as much fun when you're teenager is sitting there singing, "Pour some Sugar on Me."
I love Rod Stewart's "Forever Young," Earl Thomas Conley with Keith Whitley, "Brotherly Love," "Boys of Summer" is a must have, and, of course, "Saturday in the Park" by Chicago.
Enjoy your day in the sun! Keep that Ipod Charged
The 80's were a like totally awesome decade! Dude!
Some of my summer favs are Rio by Duran Duran, and what summer playlist doesn't have Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffet.
Wishing you a scent-sational day in the limelight of the SITStahood!
Patty
Happy SITS day Rhonda.
You are going to SITScation? Me too. Yay. It'll be fabulous. Can't wait to meet you in person.
Rich Girl (Gwen f/Eve)
Walking on Sunshine by Katrina & The Waves
And just cuz the littlest diva got it stuck in my head now it can get stuck in yours too Mmmbop by Hanson
happy sits day..
My countryside is emerging! Fishin in the Dark by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and On the Road Again by Willy Nelson.
HAPPY SITS DAY!!!!!!! I have lots of remix songs on my Ipod to help me run on the treadmill. Just search for remixes and you will be bopping to revved up versions of your favorites.
Have a wonderful day
151 Comments so far! Well I'm sure these songs have already been noted (b/c I'm not the only one with good taste, surely):
"Spinning Wheel" by Blood, Sweat & Tears
"Summer in the City" by Lovin' Spoonful
(Do these songs make me look old?)
Have fun!

Happy SITS day!
One of my faves to sing loudly in the car is Something to Talk About by Bonnie Rait, it was often a part of the college road trips with me and my bff.

Hope this was an awesome day! Congrats on being the Featured Blogger at SITS!
Looking forward to meeting up with you in Vegas!
2 albums that always said summer when I was in college (yes I am that old) were Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms and Talking Heads - Little Creatures. I'm getting nostalgic just thinking of them.
Ya know what song makes me smile? "Making memories of us"- Keith urban
Congrats on being SITSa of the day!
Dropping by from SITS. Congrats on your SITS day. I loved reading your blog...especially liked reading about you. I will be back.
The new Black Eyed Peas song: Tonight
I triple dog dare you to sit still while you listen to it! :-)
Happy FB SITS DAY!! Love your blog! I'll be back!
Songs? well-I am terrible at remembering names of songs- but here are a few... These boots were made for walking-always get's me pumped when excercising! Lots of james taylor, dave matthews, eric clapton. I am dating myself now aren't I? I also love fun dance music, but never know the names of songs.
Congrats on being featured!
I agree with Lisa...Tenth Avenue North.
Have a great day!
I love oldies in the summer.
Anything by the Beach Boys screams summer time.
Happy SITS day! Favorite summer songs--anything Jack Johnson--he just puts me in that happy summer mood!
Congrats on being the FB. This summer my kids and I are liking The Black Eyed Peas & Lady Gaga.
Happy SITS Day!!What a great blog!
For the summer I love Bare Naked Ladies- or Cyndi Lauper. Girls Just Want to have Fun is my Song!!
I like some good BOOTY shakin' music!
hee hee
Happy SITS day! My favorite roll down the window songs that I can think of right now are U2's "Elevation," "Gloria," "When Love Comes to Town," and other U2 songs. Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion" winds me up, too.
Happy SITS day to you! Your blog is fabulous!
Happy SITS day! I like to break out the Stand By Me and Dirty Dancing soundtracks come summertime...
From the Once Soundtrack the song "Falling Slowly" - a sappy but to die for!!
Oldie but goodie, Counting Crows is great summer music and then I adore anything Shakira. Congrats on the feature :)
Came from SITS to say hi! I hope your having a great day being featured. Meatloaf is so nice to listen to on a hot summer night!
Here are some great artists:
Chris Webb Band
Missy Higgins
The Fray
Postal Service
Coldplay
Enjoy! And happy SITS day. :)
Congrats on being the featured blogger!!
Spill Canvas is good. ( I went to high school with the guys. They are really good!)
Also I enjoy me some ACDC and Aerosmith as well!!
My wedding song was "Push" by Sarah Mclaughlin. Five years later, I still love listening to it on repeat.
Also love the Black Eyed Peas for fun summer music.
Happy SITS day!
Music selections for you:
My favorite artist KT Tunstall. She is a 'song to dance to' and a few 'soundtrak to my life' songs as well. My favorite: Under the Weather, Hold On, Suddenly I See, and Black Horse and the Cherry Tree.
Another of my favorites is Toad the Wet Sprocket. My favorite songs are Windmills, All I Want (you will know this one when you hear it. It was WAY overplayed in the 90's), and Walk on the Ocean.
Hope that helps and stock up on I Tunes cards from Starbucks! They give out a new song every Tuesday and sometimes you find real gems on there... sometimes, not so much.

Congrats on your SITS day!!
I look for great chick singers----from all eras----
I like Ingrid Michaelson, Maria McKee, Priscilla Ahn, Alannah Myles, Jann Arden, Portishead, Roxette, Sara Barielles, Sun 60, and Shawn Colvin....
Have a good one!!
Congratulations on being the featured blogger! I love anything by Van Morrison. Or you could go with some really oldies - put on Celebrate by Cool and the Gang.
I'm partial to Human by the Killers

Here via SITS - Hi! I'm an 80's girl, too, so here are a couple I love:
Pour Some Sugar On Me, Def Leppard
Beautiful Girls, Van Halen
Don't Stop Believin', Journey
Ya know who else rocks? Aly & AJ. Total Disney Channel pop, but their songs pump me up. "Closure," "Division" and "Like Whoa" are awesome.
Happy SITS day!
Blackeyed peas for sure (I've got a feeling)...
Happy SITs, you're a riot, BTW :)

Happen to have heard
Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley?
happy SITS day - love your blog.
Congrats on your special SITS day!!
I love Boom Boom Pow - Black Eyed Peas
And Coldplay...anything.
I won't be much help since I've had an Ipod for 5 years now without ever cracking it open. It was a wrap gift from the producers of a show that I worked on back in 2004. Pitiful I know, but it's so pretty in spite of it being outdated! One day I'll join the new millennium and break open the pack as well as upgrade to a color screen but for now, I'm moving at my glacial pace with technology. However congrats on your SITS featured blogger day.
