madison may · Answer

The Only Place - Best Coast: California girlrock got me through four years of Brooklyn winters. It’s something about the charm bracelet jangling, the sha-la-la harmonies. There’s an entire buffet of “this town sucks” testosteroning from the same period. Best Coast is refreshing in how sincere they are about really, genuinely, shamelessly loving the endless summer of California.

Sarah Cooney · Answer

The Boys of Summer (First Aid Kit): Every time the OG version of this song played on the radio, my mother would always sing along--this was "her" song in a way that her other favorites were not. It belonged to her before me, before she was a mother, when she was just herself. This version is my version of the song.

Dylan · Answer

LFO - Summer Girls: SOME OF THE WORST LYRICS EVER WRITTEN. ALSO A SUMMERTIME COMEDIC MASTERPIECE. I was about to talk some shit about the frat-boy vibes I get from this group, but then I looked them up on Wikipedia.

While I was very pleased to discover that the name LFO is an acronym for Lyte Funky Ones (obviously), I was saddened to read that all three original members died in their 30s and 40s.

Dylan · Answer

Weezer - Island In The Sun (Official Music Video): Maybe it's because I listened to this 10,000x one summer when I was 19 years old, but this always makes me think of balmy nights and coronas by the pool.

Steve M · Answer

Top of the World (The All-American Rejects): Part of the same album Move Along but I also have strong associations with this song because it was part of the soundtrack to Burnout Revenge and I spent an entire summer playing the shit out of this game on my 360.

Steve M · Answer

It Ends Tonight (The All-American Rejects): The album came out in the summer when I was in high school so I remember this being on MTV all the time. Still probably my favorite AAR song.
