Totally classic in my opinion!

Searching my audio collection gave me these good ones:

Mineral - February (March Version)
Rainer Maria - Half Past April
Don Caballero - June is Finally Here
Mineral - July
Unwound - October All Over
Christie Front Drive - November
Appleseed Cast - December 27, 1990
Unwound - December

Hey look! These bands are nearly all midwestern/northwestern e**core bands! Interesting.

Not sure who it's by (Supertramp?) but there's that song that goes
"January....dum di dum....you been hanging round me....don't know why you're telling me lies, but don't go, don't go" (can't remember all the words).

Crap song, but a few years ago a complete stranger sang this to our office answerphone in the middle of the night, a woman with a very bored sounding voice, and it kept us entertained for, literally, months.

That answerphone message, definitely classic.

September Song - Kurt Weill
September - Earth Wind & Fire
January Rain - Hunters & Collectors

Did Los Lobos also cover "4th of July" ?

January is by Pilot.

Destroy: January February by Barbara Dickson

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 18 November 2002 14:43 (twenty-three years ago)

great thread idea, since one song per month makes for a nice length mix CD

I can still remember all the words to "January" by Pilot!

― Jeff W (Jeff W), Monday, 18 November 2002 15:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I put it in to be destroyed, Mark: the DLT recommendation says it all

― robin carmody (robin carmody), Monday, 18 November 2002 20:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Destroy: Counting Crows' "A Long December". Especially that video with Courtney Cox in it. Yeesh.

"Totally classic in my opinion!"

Dud surely? Just look at this evidence and try not to shudder in horror:

"April Showers" - Al Jolson
"June Is Bustin' Out All Over" - Rodgers & Hammerstein

And what is more "January, February" by Barbara Dickson - quite, quite dreadful but does raise the stakes by including *two* months in the title....

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Tuesday, 19 November 2002 10:06 (twenty-three years ago)

On the positive side however:

"April Come She Will" - Simon & Garfunkel
"November" - Tom Waits
"December 1963 (Oh What A Night" - Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Tuesday, 19 November 2002 10:07 (twenty-three years ago)

I Ain't Marching Anymore - Phil Ochs
