With temperatures reaching the high 80 in the tri-state area it feels like summer already, when I get this summer feeling there is a song that symbolizes the season I'm curious to know if anyone else associates the start of summer with a song if so what's your song?

Sure,

It would be really easy to pick some classic rock or hard rock song to fit the bill, but hey... This is one song from the recent past, that gets me in the summertime frame of mind....

Great idea !!
Thanks for the inspiration.

It doesn't matter when released date was, the song that does it for is an ol Chicago hit "Saturday in the Park" I don't know the season it was released, your pick has that light summer feeling though.

Mungo Jerry's "In the Summertime". I think that was the title of the song...

Well.. It gets REALLY hot here in Vegas. Summer isn't always something we look forward to. It's more of a "oh s**t, the heat's comin'", kind of feeling.

That being said, this is my favorite Summer song:

The singer in the song says "Go shove the Sun Aside" when he's screaming. My sentiments exactly. :wink:

You guys have name some really memorable songs. Shredd, I don't even know that song you posted.

But there is definitely a generation gapp here. I sang these song on the way to marching band practice in the 70's.
