Summer Jam: I Got Sunshine by Sarah VonderHaar

Tweet

At summer's edge, I'm always reminded of this guy I used to work with who told me about a sales trip he'd been on that changed his life forever. It just so happened that two of his companions were female. After they returned to their hotel that evening some local guys started hassling the ladies and he stood up for them, chasing the guys off. The men returned with baseball bats and beat the crap out of him.When he related the story, he chuckled about his partial brain damage and said, The simplest things in life are the best anyways. Like hanging your arm out of a car window on a sunny summer day; that just never gets old.I learned something that day. Complicated things can be overrated. Life is in the moment.So here's what I think now. Summer is rapidly approaching and you need an arms-out-the-window carefree jam. Listen to I Got Sunshine' by Sarah VonderHaar. This is that jam.The song, she says, describes how to deal with the troubled world we live in by staying optimistic and reminding yourself of all the wonderful things we have in our lives.Like an outstretched hand lazily flowing with the breeze as it hangs out the car window, I Got Sunshine' just never gets old. With a plucky mix of keyboards and guitar, it's like being instantly transported to a long stretch of country road on a hot day with the top down.Sarah " who you may recognize from America's Next Top Model' cycle 8 " has her debut album in stores now, Are You Listening?Also click here to join our latest contest to win Sarah's CD ending May 9th. --Wes Listen to Sarah's hot new single "I Got Sunshine" right here:
