Two that come very quickly to mind are “Theme From A Summer Place” and “Cruel Summer” by Bananarama.

I love Cruel Summer - the Song and the video. The video wouldn't be the same without the Southern sheriff in NYC!

Could never figure out why the sheriff was there...LOL!

This summer it's Despacito. Over three billion views on YouTube, making it the most watched video ever.

Baker Street is my go-to summer song, for some reason.

Love the Zombies - mid 60’s Brit Inv group.
Their version of this classic is my favorite.
His breathy vocals and the arrangement are simply the perfect performance.

Always been a big fan of “I Want Some Milk” by the Deftones.

It is an angry, angry song.
