So does this!
 
 The lights are on in Standun's
 and the spell has been broken
 The roadside teahouse door
 is wide open
 A sign on the wall
 says "American also spoken"
 As Spring comes to Spiddal
 
 The village girls go walking
 by without their coats
 The Irish gaelic college
 is alive again with folk
 Farmers gather talking
 freed from Winter's yoke
 As Spring comes to Spiddal
 
 A tourist with a telescope
 and a funny looking German bloke
 And a billy goat
 all invoke
 The Summer soon to bloom
 
 On a soft and fresh Atlantic air
 a mist of pollen floats
 On Galway Bay I spy
 a gaily painted fishing boat
 There's a rustle around the boreens
 and a song on every throat
 As Spring comes
 to Spiddal

Fantastic disc, but I'd hardly call it happy springtime music.

For me it's Scarlet Begonias by The Grateful Dead.
 Or anything by the Go-Go's or B-52's.

The Undertones "Here Comes the Summer" is my all-time favorite spring raveup.

The Flaming Lips "Race for the Prize" is a great song for a spring day.  Couple that with Malcolm X/Meridan Hill Park view right outside my front window.

The whole All Night Radio album is pretty damn good for a spring day.  Also, I know it is a bit premature, but you can't go wrong with a little Staying Out For The Summer by Dodgy

That is a good one. "Today" by Smashing Pumpkins (Also a nice summer day / driving song.)
