We asked our listeners for their ideas about good summer songs. One listener suggested Ke$ha’s song “Die Young.” It suggests the temporary nature of having fun and being young. Kesha sings: let’s make the most of the night / like we’re gonna die young.
Singer Taylor Swift
The country-pop artist Taylor Swift also sings about being young on her song “22.” Swift sings about staying up all night, dancing and ignoring responsibilities. The lyrics go like this: we're happy free confused and lonely at the same time /
It's miserable and magical oh yeah /
Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines, it's time.
Another listener suggested “I Love It” by the two-member Swedish electronic band Icona Pop. This song is on American radio a lot right now. Who knows? It might become this year’s summer anthem.
