Summer light in Stockholm.

These days, I can’t get the song Sommartider by the Swedish pop group Gyllene Tider out of my head. The title translates to summer time and the lyrics talk about staying out all night long, in a city that glows. The catchy refrain repeats hej,  hej sommartider in an easy to sing along way. The sound is dated, but the song is fun and it’s kind of an unofficial summer anthem.

It’s perfect for this time of year – it’s intoxicating outside with the long light. You have to be out.
