We all have that one song that, no matter where we are or what we’re doing, brings us way back. Sometimes it’s back to that beach party you went to in the summer of 2012, the sand between your toes and the warm ocean breeze blowing through your hair. Sometimes it’s back to that first ice cream date you went on with your special someone 3 short years ago, when you laughed and tried to shove their ice cream in their face. Wherever you go back to when you hear that one song, it’s safe to say that music is what makes moments special. It defines a season, a year, and even a generation. Summer of 2018 has had some hardcore VIBES, and today we’re sharing with you the top hits that you’re all jamming to that will eventually bring you way back to this summer.
This month, everyone has been Shazaming some pretty solid summer tracks. Think: roasting in the summer sun while listening to songs that make you want to make another pitcher of sangria. Some are bouncy, some are bumping, and some are showing us that Latin-inspired music dominates during the warmer months (as per usual).
