Favourite Summer Songs
 

.

The best song to cruise to down the highway:

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

(and I don't usually like this type of rap, but this is a good song)

Anything by Jimmy Buffett or BNL is great for summertime

anything O.A.R.(Of A Revolution), Phish-Gin n Juice, Phantom-Planet California, The Clarks-Hey You, The Verve-Bittersweet Symphony, Beck-Loser, Bloodhound Gang-Fire Water Burn, Buzz Poets-Copenhagen Girl, Tom Petty-American Girl, Dynamite Hack- Boyz-n-The Hood
those are some songs that are "Summer" to me.

just because i feel its my duty to correct everyone on this matter...the cover of gin & juice is by a band called the gourds..its not phish, dave matthews, barenaked ladies, or blues traveler.

Boys of Summer - The Ataris

Jimmy Buffet songs are good for the summer. :cool:

The thing I love about summer is the music that really FEELS like summer. I can't begin to count the hours we spent laying out and listening to the radio. Summer songs seem to transend generations.

Sly and the family Stone-GREAT summer music.
Hot Fun in the Summertime-Stand-I Want to Take You Higher These were almost an anthem as we prepared to go out for a night of fun.
California Dreamin' Momas and Papas
Night Moves, Bob Seager
Dock of the Bay
(Ain't no cure for the) Summertime Blues
Under the Boardwalk
Let's Get it On
Brown Eyed Girl
Pretty Woman
Beach Boys...if you REALLY want to reach back Jan and Dean
Bob Marley Ditto to Jimmy Buffet-The Stones-older stuff-Moody Blues Days of Future Past-esp Nights in White Satin
Temptations-ARETHA
