Amazing song. You really can sense a youthful vibrancy to the music and feel the rejuvenation that Summer brings, the instrumentals surreal, hazy and echoed like memories are, and how it seems to crash as Autumn penetrates the bliss, leaving one feeling almost frantic because they have no power over it.

I do wonder why it's David's last Summer. Maybe it just feels like Summer will never arrive again once Winter hits? Or maybe this David died? Jarvis's faint voice in the background at the end of the song begs "Oh, I want you to stay." Not sure, but more likely it's just about Summer.
