    I have songs that aren't necessarily about summer, but they remind me of summertime for some reason:

    This is one of my all time favorite summer songs. It just takes you there...

    I had the pleasure of seeing Jim Seals and his late brother England Dan perform it at the Decatur Celebration a few years ago. I'll never forget it.

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    Band On The Run is one of my ten favourite songs of all time, but I never thought of it as being 'summery'.

    Another one is Neil Diamond's Desiree ('it was the third of June/on that summer's day); bear in mind that the seasons are reversed down here.

    Also, who remembers this epic? Compared to some of his other stuff (Honey) it isn't too bad:

    One of my favorites is Janis Joplin's Summertime. Love her raspy voice.

    Apart from the first word, this isn't exactly about SUMMER per se. However it was released early Summer 1988 and for me anyway it seemed to be playing every time I turned on the radio. So to me its a Summer song!
