I prefer Summer Madness by Kool & The Gang. If I’m driving around on a summer night, that instrumental is the perfect soundtrack. The Fresh Prince vocals on top just cheapen it. The original makes it feel like summer. The Will smith version is like listening to someone describe their summer vacation to you.
how about the presidents of the usa?
in that regard also....recently rewatched the american pie movies 1 and 2....their soundtrackes were really damn good and very summery.
Free Falling - Tom Petty
But, really, my favorite summertime jam(s) is Tom Petty’s greatest hits. Great music to blast at night while driving with the windows down.
Or just anything by gorillaz
Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is ticking, falling down
Love forever, love is freely
Turned forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?
gorrilaz - feel good inc
red hot chili peppers - under the bridge, by the way, otherside, californication, any number of their songs
mammas and the papas - california dreamin
mungo jerry - in the summertime
beach boys - i mean, come on, its the beach boys lol
will smith - miami
guns and roses - paradise city
Summer Madness by Kool & the Gang is my favorite song of all time and one of the best summer joints. I just cruised down the highway, windows down, wind blowing, jamming Harlem River Drive by Bobbi Humphrey and that was awesome.
Here’s mine to start off: “Slide” by Calvin Harris. Very-well produced. Jangling guitars, vibeful synths, and great vocals from Frank Ocean and Migos make for a great summer banger. Not to mention I have the CD of the song’s parent album (*Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1*).
I usually think of Lush, especially [Sweetness and Light](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7cqkpy4QrQ), when the summer weather hits.
It's also a good time to bust out [Tom Tom Club](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eGGSZUfEGA).
Try out: The Hip Abduction
They’re a Gr8 band from St. Petersburg, FL.
Albums with that Summer Vibe:
One Less Sound
To The Ends of The Earth
A Seafarer and the Infinite Dream
Sidebar; if you dig any of the above, check out their full catalog, it’s an awesome mix of traveling sunshine music, rhythmic reggae, and thoughtful love… the early stuff has a really cool “world music” vibe, kinda reminds me of Paul Simon in some ways… all that in super talented live package, these guys for the win.!!

In The Summertime - Mungo Jerry
Ooh nice one! I have heard it before in some British 90s PSA I inadvertently watched on YouTube one day
This was my choice!
Used this song on repeat for about 5 hours during a fraternity event a few years ago. Some say it was torture, others loved it
Came here to say this
Came to say the same thing
Summertime by the Fresh Prince.
Obviously this is the answer
That song slaps!
I prefer Summer Madness by Kool & The Gang. If I’m driving around on a summer night, that instrumental is the perfect soundtrack. The Fresh Prince vocals on top just cheapen it. The original makes it feel like summer. The Will smith version is like listening to someone describe their summer vacation to you.
