Just like you described this really lovely, kind of girly voice. And then what she was saying was not, and I was like, Oh, I am into this. -- BettySoo on The SUNDAYS "Summertime" Think you don’t know The SUNDAYS? Chances are, if you listen to adult album alternative radio, you’ve heard them. Texas singer-songwriter BettySoo shares her favorite one hit wonder, The SUNDAYS song “Summertime,” with its charming vocal delivery yet darkly subversive lyrics. So that's so interesting how, you know, different songs and albums come into people's lives at different times, but the ones that stick around...it's like, why does this particular album or song or band stick with me? On a deeper note, BettySoo and Sloane Spencer get into what makes certain songs, albums, and artists irrevocably linked to someone’s memories at a specific point in their life, no matter the quality or popularity of the music. Plus, they discuss the ups and downs of musicians’ decisions to no longer produce music or be a public figure and how it affects the fans. Without an external kind of exoskeleton of structure, it's really hard to know how to prioritize things. Known for life hacking support for her creative friends, BettySoo has to be so organized that she designs and sells her very own planner system, the Work Play Every Day planner, perfect for planning out Sundays and beyond.

So what in history is where we talk to music folks about their favorite one hit wonders, and often it leads to some interesting little associations, so I'm looking forward to hearing which one is your favorite. [00:00:43][14.5] BettySoo: [00:00:45] Well, it wasn't a number one single, but it was a hit single in the late 90s, and it's a song called Summertime by the Sundaes. [00:00:53][7.9] Sloane Spencer: [00:00:54] Oh, so I've been working in Triple J radio for the last many years, and this is still a staple of AAA radio playlists. When I pull up the sundaes, it's going to come up this one, and here's where the story ends from. Their first record are going to be the top two in those playlists. Absolutely. One you'll recognize. Even if you say, I don't know the sundaes, I don't know that song. Oh yeah. Pull it up. You'll immediately like, Oh yeah, one that sounds like it's wonderful Christmas time in the intro.

Here's where the story ends off of reading. Writing Arithmetic came out in 1990, so that was kind of their intro to the U.S. market and so still a big well-known tune.
