With summer in full swing, we are always looking for songs to add to our summer playlists. I use these 10 classics during everything from movement interventions in music therapy sessions to swimming at the lake or relaxing in the fishing boat. Nothing can beat these timeless classics that are an instant boost (even on a rainy day!).

These are of course hyperlinked to youtube videos, but I would highly recommend making this into a playlist on your phone, iPod, or CD! These are in no particular order, although Walkin’ on Sunshine is by far one of the top request!

Walkin’ on Sunshine-Katrina and the Waves

Beautiful Sunday-Daniel Boone

Sunny-B.W. Stevenson

A Summer Song-Chad & Jeremy

Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows-Lesley Gore

In the Summertime-Mungo Jerry

Beach Baby-The Regents

Summer Nights-John Travolta & Olivia Newton-John

Wipeout-The Surfaris

Under the Boardwalk-The Drifters

What are some of your favorite tracks for summertime?
