This one is "Summertime, Summertime" by the Jamies.
It is summer almost all year long in California. And it was summer all the time for the Beach Boys. They sang about their favorite activities, like riding the ocean waves on surfboards. Here is one Beach Boy song, "All Summer Long."
However, for some teenagers, summer vacation was not all fun and games. Some of them had to work to earn money.
Eddie Cochran sang about this in "Summertime Blues."
Many other bands and artists later recorded this song, including the British rock band, the Who.
The Lovin' Spoonful was a band that did not love summers in the city because of the heat. They sang: "Hot town, summer in the city. Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty."
And: "All around, people looking half-dead, walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head."
They liked the nighttime better when they could dance and have more fun.
"Summer in the City" was released in the summer of 1966 and was one of the Lovin' Spoonful's greatest hits.
Even though it was hot, Sly and the Family Stone still found ways to have fun in the summertime. This song is about the happiness that the season promises, including going to a "county fair in the country sun."
In the 1990s, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince produced this hip-hop song called "Summertime." It is about being with friends and having a good time.
