Top 30 "Summer" Songs of All Time

Billboard.com recently hit the worldwide web with their choices in the best 30 summer songs of all-time. Here's how they messed up, the songs had to have lyrics about summer and the top 30 songs are ranked by a point system for their performance on the billboard chart. Music isn't about math, and it's summer time, nobody does math during summer. The only summer school requirement is looking at the summer reading book list and going to Joseph Beth and grabbing the sparknotes for it.

I will say that there are some classic hits on Billboard's best summer songs, but just because every one of the beach boys songs was about surfing and California doesn't make them all the best summer songs of all time.
