LYRiCS.

How many times have we posted a facebook status with lyrics, reflecting our mood that day? Or popped in a certain CD that shaped the kind of day we'd have? Everyday ritual for me! Lyrics seem to be the reason we like certain types of music. Not only do they lyrics put us in moods, they encourage us to think deeply about the song's meaning.
Country music's most evident "mood" is that of summertime. The lyrics to most country songs cause easy-going feelings, similar to the feeling of sitting on the beach baking in the warm sun! My personal favorite summertime song is "Summertime", written by the beach king himself, Kenny Chesney.



Woo! I'm completely jacked for SUMMERTIME!! :) Kenny and his beautiful lyrics.. "it's a smile. it's a kiss. it's a sip of wine. sweeet summertime." Is it the fact that he emphasizes the little things that make summer great? Or the beachy melody? Which one gives us the "summer feel"?
