Can You Hear Summer Coming?

Here at SparkNotes, we’ve been mining for rockstar Sparklers, real readers with so much music knowledge that awesome playlists are coming out of their... butterknives. The following submission is from Sparkler Iamjoannayupi. Enjoy!  -SparkNotes Editors

You have been waiting for almost nine months.

Maybe you have been following an exhausting diet and said no to chocolates a million times. Maybe you have been wandering in the mall for over three hours looking for the perfect bikini. Maybe you already bought the world map and marked the places you want to visit with your mates, or have been saving money to buy a ticket to the concert that almost everyone is going to.

OK, we all got it: SUMMER IS COMING. (Thank God!) It seems like you have planned the perfect summer, like one of those we've seen in a college movie and have always been jealous of.  Everything is set and finally, Eurotrip will no longer be your lifetime un-catchable dream. But something is missing, something vital in order for you to make your flawless summer movie: a good SOUNDTRACK! Here are some of the songs that I propose for you:

Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams

Classic, a little bit of oldie and at the same time, the absolutely-necessary rock track for your iPod! In addition, it gives you this feeling of the good memories (excellent for all of you who cherish the moment, seize the day, and are looking forward to an extra special summer).

All Summer Long - Kid Rock

Undoubtedly, you all had this song in your mind when you started reading this article. The lyrics say it all! Singing about carefree life with your friends and a girlfriend—the classic blond, blue-eyed, deadly sexy girl. (I still haven't figured out how can a girl like this possibly be attracted to Kid Rock. I guess I will have to ask Pamela.)

Perfect Situation - Weezer

The most positive song EVER! It has these unexplainable, magical powers that force you to stand up and start dancing and singing as loud as you can! (If you think it's embarrassing just turn the volume to the maximum and snap your fingers. This would be less ridiculous, I guess).

Dakota - Stereophonics

"Summertime, think it was June, yeah I think it was June.''

It's a Long Way to the Top - ACDC

The song, the legends. All of you free-spirited, wild, revolutionary rock 'n' rollers will appreciate this song. Although it has nothing to do with summer from a certain perspective, it's the ideal song for the endless hours in the car you with your friends. So what are you waiting for? Open the windows of the car and start screaming "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll..."
