For the record: The Sounds of Summer
Over the next two weeks, students will be gearing up to go back-to-school. It’s tragic, I know. But there is a way to keep a little part of your vacation with you while you’re snowed in or rained out during the fall semester.
The summer season is notorious for producing great music that will define the memories of cookouts, shore time and road trips for the rest of the year. We here at Campus Philly put our heads together and came up with 20 songs that best represented our summer this year. Check out our playlist here.
Some songs have survived from the start of vacation (May for college kids) and some have been overplayed to the point of brainwashing. You will notice that a few songs did not come out in 2009, but represent some of the biggest tours of the summer, and while a handful of these artists may not be known to you, one will stand out to you as a man whose songs will never be removed from the shuffle.
So take a poll of your friends and create that perfect playlist that you can blast while moving into your residence hall or anytime you feel nostalgic over those lazy days of summer.
