With the official start of summer just around the corner, I am going to share my Top 10 Summer Songs of all time with you. Summer brings a vibrant energy that comes alive with these tunes. Some of these songs hold a special place in my heart while others just always have a way of making me feel like I am catching some rays and feeling the summer breeze. So, as we welcome summer with open arms, I invite you to join me on a musical journey through my Top 10 Summer Songs of all time. Let the music play, the memories flow, and the spirit of summer fill your soul.
This song brings me back to the day I learned how to ride my bike without training wheels. It was a picturesque 2005 summer day. My dad had freshly painted the garage floor, both doors were open with the warm air flowing through, and fresh asphalt made up our driveway. Needless to say, there was lots of room for me to perfect the art of riding a bicycle. I had just strapped on my portable Barbie radio to my Disney Princess bike. This song came on the radio and I was feeling like nothing could stop me now that I knew how to ride my bike without training wheels.
2. Throughout my childhood, this song never failed to be playing on the radio whenever we were spending time on the lake, letting the boat take us along on its own time, living the long summer days slow.
3. This song brings back a memory of a childhood friend of mine whom I would only get to see a couple of times during the summer every year. Every time I listen to this song I get brought back to a specific time this song came on the radio while we were in the car; my mom driving, me in the passenger side, and she in the back. As soon as she heard this song, she asked me to turn it up, rolled down her window, and started yelling the lyrics out of the window. I was so shocked by this act, but since then I have always aspired to have her summertime energy.
4. Simply a summer classic
5 & 6. Summer of 2017. The first summer that I had my license and my first car. I had the windows and top down every chance I could get with these songs frequently playing so everyone could hear as I drive by.
7, 8, 9, & 10. These songs get the good vibes flowing and never fail to get me feeling sunshiney and summery.
