One of my favorite songs from 2002 has to be Sheryl Crow's "Soak Up The Sun". It just captures summer and brings a smile to my face. I can't help but think of girls on the beach, surfing, sunrises, and bright sunny days. Carefree and light, a throw back to the classic Beach Boys. Crow is an artist that has grown on me over the years. C'mon C'mon is the first album of hers that I purchased, but her other ones are most certainly on my wish list.

I don't have digital
I don't have diddly squat
It's not having what you want
It's wanting what you've got

I'm gonna soak up the sun
Gonna tell everyone
To lighten up
I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
I'm gonna soak up the sun
