Music Meme: A Song that Makes You Think of Spring

I love Nickel Creek, so I had to get them in this meme somewhere. They've got some great Spring-like songs, which makes them a good fit for this prompt. A lot of people go straight to Smoothie Song, which is pretty great. Though I personally like Scotch and Chocolate better. But for a real Spring song, I have to go with The Fox, for being nice and lively



I also find a lot of music by The Beatles to be very Spring-like. Especially this song about falling in love, though I'm grabbing the video from Across the Universe because I love it so much

    I'm having a really hard time thinking about spring right now. The weather is getting colder and the days are getting shorter. Obviously it is not spring.

    Honestly, the first thought that comes to mind when I think of spring is this one (NSFW?): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6_66zA12Rs

    But I digress.

    Spring is a time for new beginnings and unbridled optimism. The song I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash embodies that spirit. I probably don't even need to post a youtube link because you're already thinking about how the rain is gone and you can see all the obstacles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HagzTRmUBIE

    Also, Maxwell's Silver Hammer by The Beatles. Does it have anything to do with spring? No. Is it one my favorite songs of always? Yes. It doesn't really make me think of spring, but I just had to throw it up there. There aren't many great songs about psychotic, violent schoolchildren, but there should be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpCV2wgoxC8

      Excitable, violent school children? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJefPK_UkdM

      And the rain is finally gone after days of it

      Holy shit, that song is so much more intense than Maxwell's silver hammer.
