And this Jack Johnson tune from a decade ago

 

[bucephylus]

Didn’t see this one yet.


Also, this recording, though the tune was previously mentioned, remains my fav.

 

[Benj-jammin]

As others have concurred - Summer Breeze - Seals and Croft

 

[DirtDog]

Not really a song about summer but a song that got heavy airplay one very special summer for me. Brings back so many awesome memories.

 

[ERMAL]

Although derided as one of their worst albums, I always liked this Beach Boys (with a little help from Joe Walsh), summertime tune.

 

[ACRock]

This one is gonna raise some eyebrows, but it deserves to be in the list

 

[zubrycky]

I love this one (Its title means "summer's vacations" in spanish).

 

[Mannyinnewyork]

 

[zubrycky]

I believe some of you will find this bass line... quite familiar.

 

[MonetBass]

Yes!

My favorite summer songs:
"Summer Song" by Joe Satriani:

I was going to post "Summer Song" also. Nice!

I'm dating myself here, and I would wager hardly anyone here remembers this one, but, this song hits me every time as the best Summer song ever. I can almost smell the Coppertone every time I hear it.

Befoulment and Debasement !!!
All that jibber jabber over one of the top-five piano intros in the history of Pop/Rock !!!

Likiss ratcheer:

I actually thought about posting this L+F version, they do it so well. They do everything well, great band. But I just went with Chicago.

Not sure what the rest of the jibber jabber is about there . But nice tune!

 

[Jay_Dub]

I'll take a little Mungo thanks.

Oh I'm just pickin' about the "yard-party noise" walking all over the song, especially the intro.

I actually canceled all my Sirius accounts over bone headed "VJs" running their mouths so much. It's OK when it's interesting and informative even the Merry Clayton story for the 50th time. But I DON'T CARE that his "mother loves Huey Lewis".. I DON'T CARE that his "favorite new obscure Indie Band played at a hole-in-the-wall club in Maui LAST WEEK. The last straw was one idiot talking over the entire intro the "Teach Your Children" telling the story of how he "just discovered" that one could actually substitute CREAM into one's morning coffee when there was no MILK in the fridge. No I don't have that backwards. That's what he was excited to share with his adoring fans... over one of the most iconic intros ever. If RSM did a ranking it would have to make the top 25.

Last Straw.
