What's your Summer Jam? - Bombcast

#1 Posted by zudthespud (3229 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

So, what's your Summer Jam?

I think so far, this is mine.

My last one I can remember would be Island In The Sun by Weezer, and pretty much the whole of that album. Listened to it non stop over summer about 3 years ago.

There has NEVER been a more fitting summer time song.

I was going to say something else, but I think you've just hit the mark.

This one is a mad choon. PHAT!

#6 Posted by coakroach (2404 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Nothing has ever topped this.

@Zero_: I don't know how many times I've listened to it the past week, I think that qualifies it as my official summer jam, nothing beats it

Don't have one but if I did it would probably be something like this:

Never been one to be into different types of music depending on season

I think it's 2 this year for me. Some nostalgia :)

I just recently played some NBA street vol. 2 after a long while and this one's been stuck in my head, and I think it works good for me for a summer jam.

Summer doesn't start until this song is played, whether you like it or not. It's been this way since this song was first made.

Also, this is the first thing I thought of when hearing this week's podcast / seeing this thread:

The last real "summer jam" I had was this one. Pretty old by now, but still awesome as it turns out.

#20 Posted by _SubZero_ (49 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

I was watching this episode of The Venture Bros. a few days ago and this song was in it. And I have been listening to it alot

I've got to agree with this one.

#35 Posted by UncleClassy (394 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Great song for just riding around with the windows down.

#36 Posted by crazyleaves (588 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

This.

I just thought this thread could use a little more hipster pretension.

#38 Posted by Turambar (5741 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

What exactly is a "summer jam"?

Agreed.

A song you discover and listen to way too much during the summer!

Or that's at least what I think it is!

There is nothing pretentious about Pavement!

Which leads me to my permanent summer jam:

This is good, I love Starscream.

So far my jams have been a Fort Knox Five remix

and this Danny Byrd song

I've also been listening to the Essential Chip Mix 2011 by Henry Homesweet, it's a 1+ hour mix of some great chiptune songs, my personal favourite comes in at about the 5 minute mark.

But, I haven't really been to any house parties or BBQs yet this summer so I haven't had that "OH, DIS IS MY JAAAAAM" moment.
