Song of the Day, Day 31 (Last Day!). Josh Ritter: To the Dogs or Whoever

Song of the Day, Day 31 (Last Day!). Josh Ritter: To the Dogs or Whoever



For the last day of "Song of the Day" for May, I leave you with this one by Josh Ritter. It was about this time last year, you put it on a mix for me. We counted down the days. Three more, then seventeen. And you changed the way I thought about June, despite the weight of the loss I experienced. In the haze of those heartbreaking days, one evening, we opened the front door, put the chairs outside, cranked up this song, cooked dinner, and laughed until we couldn't any longer. This song will always be you and those seventeen days of June.
