10 Songs You Forgot to Add to Your Summer Playlist

IT'S SUMMER Y'ALL AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!

SUMMER. TIME. JAMS.

The following list is just some of my personal favorite songs that, for me, scream summer.

1. "Summertime" - DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince

Speaking of songs that literally scream "summertime", this song is all about summer and it radiates '90s vibes. This is a song that is perfect for any and all car rides you embark on this summer. (And every summer after.)

2. "Summertime" - New Kids On The Block

Did I just put two songs with the same name on this list? Yes. Right next to each other? Also, yes. And it's a song by a boy band? Oh, HELL yes. This song is about a summer love and it's really a bop that everyone can enjoy this summer.

3. "Angel (feat. Rayvon)" - Shaggy

Not entitled "Summertime", this song — like most Shaggy songs — has a very summery and tropical vibe. Plus, in this song, you can understand most of the words Shaggy says.

4. "Raspberry Beret" - Prince

A fun song about many firsts sang by one of the greatest artists of all time, "Raspberry Beret" is great for any summer situation or any situation in general.

5. "Laid" - James

A personal favorite of mine, this song is about a struggling relationship that is heavily based on sex. Beyond that, it's fun, catchy, and will be stuck in your head for hours to come. But the good kind of stuck in your head.

6. "Crocodile Rock" - Elton John

A fun and upbeat song about memories and the fun that goes with them, this is a song that anyone can dance to all the time. And trust me, I do.

7. "The Impression That I Get" - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

If there is one genre of music that was made for the season of summer, I would argue that it's Ska. This song is bright without being overwhelming and is one of the greatest to come out of its genre.

"Sunday Morning" - No Doubt

More Ska? More ska. A catchy song with a very rebellious (even angry) message, perfect for picnics, car rides, or sitting in your room for extended periods of time.

9. "Sunflower" - Shoobies

A cute summer love song for any and all summer love you might experience by a band you've never heard of. This cute little number is by Shoobies, an alternative band out of New Jersey.

10. "Honey" - Kehlani

Speaking of cute love songs, this one is cute, soft, everything you could ever want, and so much more. Plus, it's Kehlani — a win all around.
