Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Speaking of Summer I have had this craving since Florida for eerie summer songs. Summer is a very happy time for me and everyone according to their Facebook albums, but there is something a little dark about it I can't put my finger on it. Maybe it is the thunderstorms. So my craving started with Oslo in the Summertime by Of which I listened to continually via youtube with someones bad music video for it. Doin time by sublime also works in this genre but I have heard it too much to obsess. Today I found the song to end all spooky summer songs. I already knew about it but I remembered it today and have rediscovered it. Ode to Billie Joe by Bobbie Gentry. What could be darker or more perfect. I love it so much I can't blog about it anymore.
