Can you suggest any songs associated with the month of April That is : (A) Any songs with April in the title (B) Any songs with an April date given in the lyrics (C) Any songs referencing an event that is known to have occurred in April even if the lyrics do not actually say so.
It would be very helpful to have links to performances of the songs and also more sources of information about them.

INDEX OF APRIL SONGS
Below is an index of the May songs listed in Alphabetical order. The titles are blue click links which will take you to the area in thread where you will be able to see most of the posts for that title. I shall sometimes rearrange “ late” posts to group them with the appropriate main area of discussion so that they are not overlooked. When I add to someone’s post I make this clear by doing so beneath an orange line like the one below. Regards, GeoffLawes
