I'm trying to spruce up my month's pages and would like suggestion for songs with months in the title, I've got 'January by Pilot', as a starter. I know there's loads on the net, but I thought if I asked here, I'd be able to build up lists of the more popular or well known songs with months in. (I haven't listened to music for a few years, so it's not something I know much about smiley - smiley)

Also any other suggestion for information for the months pages, I've thought of celebrity names, such as June Whitfield. smiley - smiley

"I'll Remember April" I think it's a jazz standard but it's certainly on a Chet Baker album.

Tori Amos did a song that was called, I think, "January Girl"

Wyclef Jean "Gone Til November"

As for other month things, how about birthstones?
