Summer Anthem Alert!!

Many actually! These coming from Billboard's The Top 30 Summer Songs of All Time including:

#1 - "Summer in the City", THE LOVIN' SPOONFUL (1966)
#2 - "Wipe Out", THE SURFARIS (1962)
#3 - "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini", BRYAN HYLAND (1960)
#4 - "Surf City", JAN & DEAN (1963)
#5 - "Endless Summer Nights", RICHARD MARX (1988)
#6 - "Summertime", DJ JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE (1991)
#7 - "Hot Fun in the Summertime", SLY & THE FAMILY STONE (1969)
#8 - "Surfin' U.S.A.", THE BEACH BOYS (1963)
#9 - "Summer Nights", JOHN TRAVOLTA & OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN (1978)
#10 - "The Boys of Summer", DON HENLEY (1984)

You'll notice a trend that many are from way back when, though you will find the more recent "Summer Girls" by LFO, "California Gurls" by Katy Perry and "Summer Love" by Justin Timberlake taking a few places too.
