If you are tired of all my pro-summer posts, then I recommend leaving this post right now. If you aren't, press play on the Youtube video, and enjoy another great summer song provided by a big country artist.
As I was thinking about the concept of a great summer song, I realize most of them are from country artists and I can't say that I hate it. Country music is all about love, being comfortable in jeans and tshirts and drinking. And they also happen to have a lot of music about enjoying the summer. Basically country stars know how to live life a hundred percent.
Part of me believes this song would have been my anthem last summer, but if you think about it, a person can be "drunk on you" with anyone, not just someone they really like. I'm such a fan of summer that even the most boring activities are better because of the season. So maybe I'm drunk and high off summer because it's a magical time. I sometimes wish I could have summer all year long, but then I wonder if I would love it as much as I do now.
Tell me you don't think of a specific person when you hear this song. Because if you tell me you don't, I will tell you, with all kindness, that I think you are lying.
P.S. This little girl has become a fan of country music again.
I was asked last summer to list off my favorite songs. And one of them happened to be Teenage Dream by Katy Perry, both her version and the one from Glee. I love the song, I love how it makes you feel like summertime, and I love that it's about a love that gets you so wrapped up that you want to just run away with that person.
Anyway, I was looking through videos of an accapella group from UConn called the Connmen and I found a gem. Back when I went to school at UConn, Connmen were pretty amazing. They have a version of Inside Out by Eve 6 that can take a girl's breathe away. I found another video that made me giggle and wish to find a guy willing to do this for me because he loves me so much and wants to just make me happy. Just watch guys. It brings my favorite song, dance moves from one of my favorite songs and my favorite place, UConn, together. Enjoy.
