Just post some songs that you think would make a good up-beat summer playlist. Genre doesn't matter, I'm just trying to compile a bunch of good songs together for a few long drives I have coming up soon.

A few good ones off the top of my head:

The Swellers - Best I Ever Had
New Found Glory - Truth Of My Youth
Motion City Soundtrack - Hold Me Down
Midtown - Let Go
Living With Lions - Honestly, Honestly

Yes, this is mainly pop punk so far. This is why I need some input lol.

The Wonder Years- Summers In PA

[Oddman]

Here are some great summer themed songs:

LostProphets - Last summer
Jamiroquai - 7 days in sunny June
Channel Zero - Hot summer
311 - Never ending summer
311 - Sunset in July
Incubus - Summer romance
Deftones - My own summer (or 'Be quiet and drive', since you'll be driving)
Dj Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Summertime (<-- Classic!)

[Thesleepingwell]

Anthony Green - Miracle Sun
(In fact the entirety of his solo album 'Avalon' should be added to it)

Ditto for Lydia's 'Illuminate' which is also a summer record.
I can't pick tracks from either, haha.

One of my favourite 'summery' tracks.
I always start my summer playlists with gainesville rock city by less than jake. Perfect start to any summer playlist, especially if you are driving.

Daggermouth - Hawt Lixx
The Suicide Machines - No face
Transit - Stay home

as well

My summer mixtapes are basically pop punk playlists. The Story So Far, New Found Glory, you know, stuff like those two bands.

Needs more hip hop.
Needs more indie rock/pop.
Needs more chillwavez.
Needs more folk.
Needs more pop.
Needs more classics.
Needs more something that's not pop punk.

Andrew McMahon already did this. It's called "Everything in Transit".

Kinda kidding, but really, awesome summer album.
