The mondayMedia Official Song of Spring 2017

At first it seemed too easy, Springtime for Hitler. I was just waiting for it to be spring. But then that seemed too easy, too broad, elucidating nothing. The song really going through my head was Further Along (AKA Father Alone, long story).


It was difficult to come up with a clear version with video of the performance. We like this version (artists not attributed), although it leaves out important verses: "Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder, Why it should be thus all the day long. While there are others living about us, Never molested though in the wrong...And then do we wonder why others prosper, Living so wicked year after year" etc.

He Mele No Lilo, opening credits song for Lilo & Stitch, has what's great about summer: warm bodies of water, warm bodies in water, bare feet. Written and performed by Hawaiian chanter Mark Kealiʻi Hoʻomalu with backup vocals by The Kamehameha Schools Children's Chorus. English translation here:
