This morning I was driving to the Ypsilanti office; the sun was shining, the trees were green and blowing in the breeze, and I found myself yearning for that elusive and yet so enjoyable rite of summer: The perfect pop song. Something catchy with great drums that makes you want to drive the long way to the lake.

For me, “Young Folks” by Peter Bjorn & John was the song of summer 2007. The year before that it was Clap Your Hands Say Yeah’s “Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth.”

So what’s it going to be this year? I’ll admit that I’m really out of the loop. Suggestions?
