Summer is officially just around the corner, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t be prepared. You may have the perfect bikini body, a beach just around the corner and a whole bunch of friends to have fun with, but if you don’t have the right music, it just isn’t the perfect summer. Hence, that’s where this list comes in. I guarantee, these 10 tracks will ensure that your summer starts and ends with a bang!

Mighty Mouth - La La La

Mighty Mouth really shows what summer is about in this catchy tune - long, lazy days on the beach, swimming in the ocean and, of course, water guns! Also, if you happen to own a yacht, that works too!

3 Musketeers - Let’s Go!

This melody has all the elements needed to brighten up your day and lift your spirits. It has a sort of trot-twist which always ensures that you and your friends will have a fun-filled, crazy time.

ZE:A - Watch Out!!

ZE:A is here on their private ship, and they’re ready to set sail: are you? This classic summer tune will definitely take you back to the summers of your childhood, and I can guarantee that your foot-tapping will soon turn into bouts of dance parties!

Bang and Zelo - Never Give Up

It may be a school-themed song, and music video, but the encouraging lyrics and soothing melody will really push you to finish the semester off positively and have a nice, long break.

Jay Park - Tonight

When the sun has set and the summer vibe seems to have almost disappeared, it means only one thing: party! The joys of dancing the night away are expressed through this song, so even if you’re just laying on the couch, you’ll have a great night!

f(x) - Ice Cream

What’s summer without tasty, cool treats? The sweetness of ice-cream, as well as a summer romance, are expressed though this sweet song. If that’s what you’re hoping for the summer, then this song had better be in your playlist.

San E - Tasty Mountain

This old school rap track will have you singing “Oh oh oh” constantly, while imitating the blank background dancers, throughout your entire summer vacation. Also, San E sounds like sunny, and summer…sun… You get the picture.

TOP - Turn it Up

TOP definitely knows that for your summer to be a rockin’ one, you’ve got to turn up the music. As long as the tunes are kept loud and fun, your summer will be TOPs.

G-Dragon - Breathe

After an exhausting semester, the entrance of summer feels like your first deep breath in a long time. Just like in the song, it’ll cause you to let go of all your stress scream out, “Yeah!”

TVXQ - Summer Dream

Everybody knows that summer is the perfect time to crack out those classic songs that may have started to gather some dust and play them on loop for days. Summer Dream will, not only make you think of previous summers, but it will give you a warm, fuzzy feeling of ultimate bliss.

So, what are you waiting for? Crank those tunes and have a blast. Happy summer!
