Summer is my favorite season by far, but August and September evoke different emotions than June or July. There is this constant feeling of change, whether it be school, or the small changes in the weather, or even just noticing the sun going down a little bit earlier.
When I made this list I think of colors and emotions that were most potent before my senior year of high school. This feeling of change in the air coincided with both a pandemic and applications to higher education. Summer lingered longer then, school started later, and on my hybrid nights I would bike and listen to music like this while taking every Pokémon Go gym in my hometown. That feeling of freedom, even if does not seem that important today, felt so present in my life back then.
And upon the back of those memories I built other memories, other autumns, other changes. My first dorm, my first apartment, my first job, my first car. It's not summer and its not autumn. It's not childhood and its not adulthood. It's the sunset that divides the day from the night.
sitting in the sun. no clouds. too hot to be outside. That sort of mild cynicism that feels so relatable when school begins.
right at sunset, windows down. Maybe in september. Thinking about love, or God.
In many ways, these two songs define this feeling better than anything else on the list.
Nighttime, past midnight. Play red and make out music as loud as you can in the car.
if you are in the car at night, turn off the ac and start sweating. only open the windows after "Before I Leave ends". During the day biking, or lying under a tree.
House of sugar is pure October warmth, this is the month before. Bobby has the same feeling, but the experimentation feels like that damp September green-ness.
trying to take a nap in the sun. or on a cloudy day with the windows drawn.
Biking and it’s really hot outside

"I once played this album for a girl who was into country music. We were relaxing, mesmerized by the folksy guitar pickin. . .until the horn section kicked in on the last song. At that point she started making fun of me and probably assumed I was a high school band nerd.
um. I guess its for impressing a girl who really likes country music.
