Spring in Your Step: Springtime Playlist

It’s amazing the difference that one hour of time can make in our lives. When daylight savings sprung us forward this past weekend, parts of the winter blues withered away with the realization that patios and sunny evening strolls were just around the corner. Sitting in a busy brewery last night, it was as if winter hadn’t even happened and the weekend was far from over – the sun was still golden at 7:30pm and the whole establishment’s mood was noticeably …lighter.

Then again, with the feelings of renewal comes the yawn-filled ride to work we’ll all encounter this week – knowing that as we sit down to our desks, it might otherwise be an hour of the day we were just waking up.

So, while we celebrate the newfound spring excitement and mourn the step back into dark mornings – here are some lighthearted, spring-sounding songs to help us hop to it:
