Spring is just around the corner. The weather finally reaches above freezing, and spring fever sets in. Everyone wants to get outside and play. Flowers start to bloom, the leaves come back on the trees, and everything is once again fresh and new. Here are ten songs that motivate you into spring fever!

1. Sunshine on My Shoulders by John Denver. The sun is back in the sky. The dreary days of winter start to subside. This song talks about how it really just takes feeling the sunshine to be happy. This is a very laid back classic song.

2. Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head by Burt Bacharach and Hal David in 1969. This song was actually written for the moive 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.' April showers bring May flowers, so a song about rain will definitely make you think about spring.
