It’s summer, and that means it is windows-down-hanging-with-friends-at-sonic-summer-hours weather. So naturally, we let the folky, slow songs of fall and winter go by the wayside and opt for tunes that have you tapping your fingers on the steering wheel. Here is a list of songs, some old and some new, guaranteed to have you belting along:

1. Love on Top by Beyoncé

It’s only natural that our queen and savior is at the top of the list.

2. Super Bass by Nicki Minaj

The song that DOMINATED the summer of 2011 — yes, you are allowed to be shocked at the fact that that was five years ago.

3. California Gurls by Katy Perry

The song that introduced whipped cream-shooting bras via a confectionary-filled, iconic music video.

4. Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) by Katy Perry

So nice, had to list another KP song twice.

5. Follow Me by Uncle Kracker

For some reason, everyone knows the words to this song, so let the singing in unison roll.

6. No Sleep Tonight by The Faders

You know you know this song—whether its from She’s the Man or Veronica Mars, it fair dominated the middle 2000s.

7. Blue by Marina and the Diamonds

Wait until the beat gets rolling, trust.

8. Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield

Cue The Hills playing and Lauren Conrad’s always perfect beachy waves. Or, maybe the equally as perfect hair of Blake Lively in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

9. Saturday in the Park by Chicago

Acceptable for year round playing, not just Saturdays in the park when you think it’s the Fourth of July.

10. Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond

If you know none of the words save for the chorus, you still swing your arm at the “bah-bah-bah.”

11. Dancing Queen by ABBA

But lets be real, really any song on the Mamma Mia! soundtrack.

12. I Wanna Dance with Somebody by Whitney Houston

This song needs no introduction—a true anthem.

13. Stop by the Spice Girls

Surprised I didn’t pick Wannabe? That’s a good one too, don’t get me wrong, but I might I just say this song was played twice during the cinematic classic, Spice World.

14. Feel the Love by Rudimental

This song lead me through the summer before I started college, and to this day the nostalgia is real whenever it pops up on shuffle. Did it take over all of Europe when it first came out? Yes. Should it have taken the United States in the same way? You betcha.

15. Take it Easy by Eagles

Best listened to on blast with the windows down.

16. Here Comes the Sun by The Beatles

See instructions for song above.

17. Hey Jude by The Beatles

Again, best played on blast but in a public setting (like downtown) so everyone who hears it will have it stuck in their heads for the rest of the day.

18. Believe by Cher

Last but NEVER least, the song that I have belted with friends, my dad and my grandma — a song for the ages.
