Arbor Day (4/25) isn't something we normally celebrate, but it makes for a great playlist opportunity that we couldn't pass up. Since we missed out on Earth Day (4/22), we threw in an Earth theme as well. First place for the best tree song goes to Rush. You rock.
So grab some seeds, maybe a beer and some mulch and enjoy our list. Happy Arbor Day.

Trees rock!

This was such an easy pick. Leaves In The River is pretty much a metaphor for Arbor Day.
