4th of July Mix!

Here is a list of songs for your 4th of July festivities. Please remember to support the great gift of music by purchasing (in store, iTunes, Amazon) these songs if you like them.

1) Fourth of July – Kelis

Kelis brought her “Milkshake” to the yard in 2003, but served up another hot track in
the summer of 2010. This song is one major house hit. I feel the song is apropos for the
holiday!

2) Le Disko – Shiny Toy Guns
This electro rock track is a treat for the ears. This song will make you want to move!
Carah Fay Charnow’s vocals are intense, and will make you want to ear more from this
group.

3) American Pie – Madonna
Ok, so I know this is not the original classic track by Don McLean, but Madonna gives
her take on the song and succeeds with a hit. Check out the Victor Calderone Radio
Mix, which is my favorite version.

4) Summertime Summertime – Nocera

Nocera was part of what is considered the Latin Freestyle movement in the 1980’s.
Other artists in this movement were the Cover Girls, Expose, and Debbie Deb. This
song was originally released in 1986, and has since always reminded me of “Summer
Vacation.”

5) Perfect day – Lou Reed

I will never forget hearing this song for the first time. Unfortunately, I had never been
exposed to Lou Reed until my freshman year of college. This song resonated with me
and always plays in my head on those special days in my life.

6) Where Have You Been – Rihanna

The latest single from Rihanna is HOT! I have been grooving to this single since I first
heard it on the album when I bought it. Rihanna has been producing some hot tracks.
Keep ‘em coming Rihanna!

Songs With Red, White, Blue in the title:

7) Red Lips – Sky Ferreira

This great song accompanied with the cool Terry Richardson video, makes it a choice
for me for this play list. Check out the song and video below.

8) White Horse – Jessica 6

This smooth nu-disco track will have people moving at your gathering. Nomi Ruiz’s
vocals are top! This track from the Brooklyn-based trio will have you longing for
more.

9) Blue Jeans – Lana Del Rey

I know many people have both strongly liked or disliked Lana’s debut album. I am one
one of the many fans who have come to appreciate Lana’s style of delivering songs.
The song is full of great lyrics and a nostalgic sound.
