Best Summer Songs

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69...

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I should've known we'd never get far...

Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

More to this by Bryan Adams, here are some more hit summer songs titles of all time to listen to and Enjoy!

Grease, a movie that was a huge hit in 1978. This musical movie adapted a song written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, called Summer Nights. This song was recorded by none other than John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.

Travolta had girls swooning for him and Newton-John made boys miss a heartbeat. This song has become a signature song of Danny and Sandy's summer fling and is still in the top when it comes to karaoke bars and bar songs.

The #1 song for two weeks in July 1963; 'Surf City'  song was one of the first surf songs that reached the number one position on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Not just that, it reached the 5th position on the Billboard's R&B charts too. Recorded by Jan and Dean, this song is still a favorite of many beach-goers and surfers who love the high waves...

A pop song performed by Bananarama was a top ten hit in 1983. This song hit the cords of most lonely hearts as it talked about the oppressive heat, and the misery of wanting to be with someone this summer. This song hit the #8 position on the UK chart and was even featured in the 1984 movie The Karate Kid.

The song written by Alice Cooper; portays his dream to capture the sweet, innocent feelings of school kids in the last 3 minutes before the school ends for long summer break. The song hit 'Billboard Hot 100' charts at #7; reached the #2 place on 'Billboard 200 pop albums' chart becoming the unsaid proclamation of kids who want to enjoy a never-ending summer.

Richard Marx wrote and recorded this song as a third single from his debut album. He wrote it on a trip to Hawaii with his girlfriend and future wife, Cynthia Rhodes. The song helped Marx convince Rhodes to marry him and thus, can be a charm for all those who wish to build a serious relationship or if in a relationship, convince their love to marry!

Who were the forerunners for beach songs in the 60's? It was none other than the beach boys! This song not only has girls from California going ga-ga over Beach Boys and their song, but also had women from around the world swinging to this sunny tune.

This hit pop song by 'The Drifters' is about a man who wants to meet his love in a seaside town. He plans this private meet to be 'out of sight' of everyone else. This sweet song became a hit for many who loved summer and the love drifts it brought along.

Written by Thomas and Itaal Shur; 'Smooth'  is a collaboration between Latin rock band 'Santana' and Matchbox Twenty vocalist 'Rob Thomas'. The song grabbed three Grammy awards: Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals, Song of the Year and Record of the Year. It became a massive hit and remained at the #1 position of Billboard Hot 100 in 1999 for 12 weeks!

The #1 at Billboards Hot 100 in 1966 was 'Summer in the City'  by rockband The Lovin' Spoonful. It was initially a poem that was written by Mark Sebastian (brother of John Sebastian) for a literary magazine. This song talks about the vibrant nightlife of New York in summer. It speaks about going out, finding a girl and dancing all night!

(Love is Like a) Heat Wave, is a hit single sung by Motown girl group, Martha and the Vandellas. The song is about a boy who has the lead singer's heart 'burning with desire'. She thinks she is going insane over his love. A song you should definitely not miss hearing.
