One of my favorite things about summer is listening to music that just puts you in a great mood. To me, there is nothing better than chilling on the beach listening to some country music or riding in the car with the windows down, screaming songs at the top of your lungs with your besties. Spring semester is almost over, so to get yourself ready for summer, I have made a list of 9 throwback songs that need to be on your ultimate summer playlist.
1. "Party In The USA" by Miley Cyrus
This classic song always gets me in the mood for summer, especially when I'm singing it at the top of my lungs with the windows down.
2. "Follow Me" by Uncle Kracker
This song literally just screams good vibes, and makes me feel like everything really will be alright. The perfect mix of happy and chill vibes.
3. "Toes" by Zac Brown Band
If you're hanging out on the beach, you better be playing this song. Even as I am sitting in my dorm room writing this, listening to this song makes me daydream about how soon I will be at the beach and how ready I am for summer to get here!
4. "Life Is A Highway" by Tom Cochrane
Like many of the songs on this "playlist", this song also radiates good vibes. Playing this song always makes me think about how good life is, and to me, it screams a summer with no worries.
5. "All Summer Long" by Kid Rock
This might be one of, if not the ultimate summer songs! It makes me feel like summer will last forever, and all the good memories that come with it will too. Playing this as you prepare for your spring semester to be over will certainly put you in the summer spirit.
6. "Roller Coaster" by Luke Bryan
Not everyone is a fan of country music, but if you are, this song is sure to make you wish you were spending a summer week at the beach with Luke Bryan.
7. "Riptide" by Vance Joy
Vance Joy is one of my favorite artists, and this song just puts me in a chill and happy mood. Summer is all about leaving your worries behind, and that's exactly how this song makes me feel.
8. "Cheerleader" by OMI
Although I feel like I've been brainwashed from the amount of times I've heard this song, listening to it really does make me feel like I'm back to summer 2015. If you're a fan, put it on your playlist!
9. "If I Lose Myself" by Alesso vs. OneRepublic
Unlike some other songs on this playlist, "If I Lose Myself" really puts me in the summer party mood. If you're looking for a song to get you pumped for a night out, definitely add this to your playlist!
