Rockin' Friday: My Girl

Now that we are into August, I wanted to think of a great summertime song for Rockin’ Friday this week.

To paraphrase a device used in many kids’ books:

I sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and sat and came up with nothing.

Then I walked outside, looked up and immediately had my tune:


Yes, I've got sunshine on a cloudy day. Most of the songs I play for the Little Dude are late ‘60s through late ‘70s Rock oriented, but this tune swings back into 1964 Motown. The Temptations’ My Girl is a classic song about a boy in love and the elation he feels just having her in his life. When I see skies like this, it sort of makes me feel the same way.


What’s your favorite Motown song?
