38 Songs of Summer

Every year, there always seems to be a hit song that infiltrates our radios, personal playlists, and Pandora stations. It’s the song we listen to while we get ready for a night out at the Jersey Shore bars, the song we hum along to in our car, and the song that we jog to along the boardwalk.

Some years, the song doesn’t seem to have anything to do with summer, but other years the song repeatedly references the three warm months we crave each year. Every year we embark on a new song that plays a special role in our nostalgia. For this reason, we have compiled a list of 38 songs of summer that will keep you moving and grooving in that warm Jersey sun.
