Believe it or not, some people released some albums this year, too. But most of us found ourselves reliving past interests, researching long-gone releases, and feeling positively old.

Some of them fall into both categories. Sometimes the mainstream produces some pretty kickass music, and hey, occasionally that's not just a fluke. We can all appreciate Person Pitch and In Rainbows for the masterful pieces of art that they are, but I wasn't blasting these gems in cottage country all summer, or hosting Halloween parties with them humming in the background. So, my list rocks a little harder, and may overlook some golden discs that deserve mention, but here's to variation!

By Alicia Glavac A Side - All I needed to know about life I learned from Q107. "Sweet Emotion" - Aerosmith from Toys in the Attic (1975) The first CD I ever owned was Aerosmith's Greatest Hits. When I was 15 my sisters and I all got CD players for Christmas and ONE precious CD each. We would take turns playing a song from each disc on our own player. My favourite song on that CD was "Dream On," but "Sweet Emotion" equals summer because all I can think about when I hear it is Pickford's Orbit Orange 1970 soft-top Pontiac GTO and I'm reminded of that magical summer we partied at the moon tower. "Layla" - Derek and the Dominoes from Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs (1970) Every time this song comes on the radio my mom tells me about the summer when she and her best friend bought this record and listened to "Layla" all day for three months. Now I associate it with summer and my mom in jean cut-offs.

Most of these songs have the word "summer" involved somewhere. By Miles Baker 1) Pixies - "Cecilia Ann" from Bossanova (1990) There is no talking during "Cecilia Ann." Only rocking. 2) matt pond PA - "Summer is Coming" from The Nature of Maps (2002) If the appropriateness of this song wasn't apparent in its title, it would become during the epic cello line - it's majestic. 3) Aimee Mann - "Ghost World" from Bachelor No. 2 (2000) There's always a time in summer when I feel different and alienated from all of my friends. This happens because the summer brings out something different in everyone; it's a great chance to re-invent yourself like Lisa did in that episode of The Simpsons when they went to Flander's cottage. This song is about that feeling: "Everyone I know is acting weird or way too cool/ They hang out by the pool/ While I just read a lot and ride my bike around the school."
