about
“Summertime” is an amazingly hot new single released by New York CIty based Soul/ Reggae/Funk/Pop artist Zahira. Zahira is a dedicated and focused woman who engages her audience through conscious lyrics, musical releases and live performances. Her “Summertime” single is one of many on the horizon for this up and coming artist, dancer and songwriter. This single brings in the groove of summertime fun with soulful vocals & a positive message written on a bed of some serious reggae-dub by Sly & Robbie. The lyrics and melody of this single are written by Zahira & Vince DiLorenzo. All music was recorded, mixed and mastered at Don 1 Sounds in Brooklyn, NY.
This single has been released globally in the summer of 2013 and Zahira will be performing at regional events all over New York, the East Coast USA/Canada and special performances in California to support the release.

lyrics
Ooh yah oh ooooohhh
ooh yeah ohhhhh
Sun kissed me awake
its a sweet summer day
I rise up, get ready,
With a smile on my face
I called my girls to get together,
Meet me at the beach in town
Its Saturday, beautiful weather
Time to love and feel the sound
CHORUS
Summertime makes you move la, da, da
Get together feel the groove la, da, da
Summer sun feels so right la, da, da
All the people move as one la, da, da
Walkin free on the street
Feelin' good as I walk on by
People join, move and sway
Dancin' all over the place
The vibe is right, music is bumpin
All stars become aligned
Union of sistren and bredren
Freein' up in the golden light
CHORUS
DUB
CHORUS
Let me tell you bout....
Sandy toes (Sandy toes)
Air is sweet (Oh so sweet)
Music plays (Music plays)
Move your feet (Move your feet)
CHORUS
da, da, da, da
da, da, da
da, da
da, da, da, da
Sun ray on you ohhhh
Sun ray on you ohhhh (2x)
All the people move as one la, da, da (3x)
(da, da, da, da)
