I believe if you ask anybody, they will say this is true: music defines summer. It's certainly true for me. From "MMBop" blaring through the PA system at Holiday pool every afternoon when I was younger to cruising to Coldplay's X&Y last summer, music has always been an integral part of my summer experience.
A few days ago, I stumbled upon the first official song of the summer of '06. The tune is called "Is It Any Wonder?" by British rockers Keane. The song is the first single from their forthcoming album Under the Iron Sea, and can be heard in full on . Give it a listen.

Jake. You need a new post. I’ve been at a temp job for the last two days and will be all next week until my summer job starts. I sit at the computer for 2 hours at a time doing nothing. I need something to read. Seriously. I love you.
Hey dude,
So i still have yet to watch the 24 season finale because i dont have the 23rd episode. (trust me, im super pissed) Anyways, the last two episodes are the only ones not available yet online on 24′s myspace. I guess im just going to have to wait until they put them up. If you have any other better ideas let me know. The long drive starts tomorrow, so I’ll have to let you know what CD’s are the first to make my “summer music” list.
Later,
Shawn
I’m at work and I’m laughing my ass off at the top picture on your flicker link. Good work, lover.
