so i've been singing this effing Pilot song all day, despite only knowing the chorus, and this led me to thinking about other songs with months in the title, April Showers and November Spawned a Monster were all I could come up with, so i thought ILE could help (PUNS positively encouraged btw)

January - Mega City Four

April Skies - Jesus and Mary Chain

May to December - that old one, don't know who it's by, Anton Rodgers perhaps

August and Everything After - C***ting Crows

September Gurls - Big Star

November Rain - Guns 'n' Roses

Isn't there that Fieldmice song that goes "September's not so far away"?

Anything by April March

there was a band called February. They were quite good.

NB: months in titles, like days in titles, are VERY EASY. While fun, they should thus be APPROACHED WITH CAUTION by songwriters.

'September Song', Weill blah blah.

'October', U2.

Did we say 'November Rain' yet?

'December', All About Eve; yes, they did rhyme it with 'Remember'.

  • Gilbert O'Sullivan "January Git"
  • Les Savy Fab "Hide Me From Next February"
  • The Camp "Marching"
  • Burt Bacharach "April Fools"
  • Kevin Ayers "May I"
  • The Stingrays "June Rhyme"

And with that I've run out of energy. Most of Side A of a C60 in any case.

Hey Carsmile! Happy New Year! Not a title exactly, but... 'It was Jan-u-ar-y, 1963, when Johnny came home with a gift for me...'

American Music Club haave a song called Hollywood 4-5-92 though yeah not really the name of a month. one of tp's songs nicks a line "January made me shiver" which i think was originally "february made me shiver" but i forgot which song it's nicked from. probably Jesus and Mary Chain.

katie, Friday, 4 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

will this work?

katie, Friday, 4 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I'm pretty certain you nicked it from american pie... "made me shiver, with every paper i'd deliver, bad news on the doorstep etc etc" oh bugger, i'll be singing that all day today now...

Will, why do you keep bolding things, you strange boy??
