    crowded house... there's four seasons in one day right there. :D
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    The Four Seasons :D
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    yep.
    that's about it.


    i also thought of The Zombies...............................It's the time of the season for loving
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
    Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me

    Winter - Can't think of one specific band that reminds me of winter

    Spring - Pearl Jam

    Summer - The Tragically Hip ... amongst many, many other bands that remind me of cottaging, camping, bbqs, etc.
    No time to be void or save up on life. You got to spend it all.

    For some reason The Cure, particularly Disintegration, has always reminded me of SUMMER, of all things.

    Yeah, you would think it would be Fall or Winter, but i used to listen to the Cure in the dog days of summer ...

    like blazing heat, you get that kind've melancholy (at least, i do) and you feel a bit lethargic and sedated because of it?

    I would drive around smoking lots of ganja, just getting in this melancholy headspace, listening to the Cure with the sun blarin' down on me ...

    ... so it reminds me of summer.

    Shonen Knife - Rock Animals, is another album that puts me in a great summer head space!
    and its excellent for reliving the vibes of summer after it is gone, as well.

    Oh, one more for the summer: JANE'S ADDICTION! Summertime Rolls, baby! :D:D:D Any Jane's though, really.

    Tori Amos will always remind me of Fall\Winter.
    Pearl Jam will always be Fall for me, usualy cause thats when their albums get released.
    For instance i have very vivid memories of the release of Vitalogy when i was 14, and taking the vinyl to school, and just spending endless early fall days lying on the living room hardwood floor spinning that album on my parents record player.

    I guess maybe Ramones for the spring, or early 311, or Operation Ivy, maybe?

    I dunno.
    Why the hell are we trying to match bands to seasons now, anyhow?
    :D
    If I was to smile and I held out my hand
    If I opened it now would you not understand?

    “Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’” - Kurt Vonnegut

    What came to mine immediately is the Byrd's version of Turn, Turn, Turn.
    I absolutely love this song. :)

    I was thinking Vivaldi...

    Course, thats not a band.
