The time has finally come—winter is gone, spring is officially here, and warmer days are on their way to stay (hopefully sooner than later). As we turn a new leaf and prepare for fresh blooms, outdoor adventures, and longer, sunny daylight hours, what better way to celebrate than by listening to songs that have been dubbed seasonal staples?
Billboard compiled the ultimate collection of songs to help usher in the new season, and it's bound to make the perfect soundtrack for those spring cleaning days up ahead or bike rides through the park. The iconic music publication's staff-curated roundup includes 15 of the "Best Songs About Spring Showers, Flowers & Everything in Between," and though the picks are said to be listed in no particular order, one track has long been recognized as the quintessential spring song: "Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles.
The 1969 classic captures the feeling of emerging from a brutal winter and welcoming the sun with open arms, expressing how the ice slowly melting and the weather heating up bring smiles back to faces. "It's been a long, cold, lonely winter / Little darlin' / It feels like years since it's been here / Here comes the sun," the legendary musicians croon on the track.
Released on Sept. 26, 1969, as part of the rock band's album Abbey Road, the tune was written by George Harrison and produced by George Martin, according to The Beatles' website. It became one of their most enduring hits ever, and the first song from the decade (1960s) to reach one billion streams on Spotify (2023).
