It's been another cold, wet and dreary day here in New York where the last thing I want to do is run errands around Manhattan in preparation of heading back to Paris, where it is also dreary and cold. Instead of being responsible, I spent a better part of the day procrastinating, daydreaming about warmer weather which influenced my annual spring playlist.
Last year, I missed out on this little joy because I was only listening to Tori's Little Earthquakes (yes, "Tori"), Songs of Leonard Cohen and dance music I could ignore. So making up for lost time, here are my favorite songs that get me ready for picnics, lingering days, grass stains and making the official switch from red to white wine. This is what spring should be, this and indie pop, not snakey bitches having a drink with your ex at Caffe Vitto...I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.
