    Already know that this thread is going to have me wishing I could be walking on a beach all month!

    There is always one or two songs that define the summer of each year (wonder if that will happen this year), feel like this is one of the more memorable ones:

    We're going To Ibiza. We actually did a parody of this song in primary school for the production (aka performance) at the end of year 6. We instead called it We're Going To Lumbago.

    Nice theme Jade :) 

    This is what summer sounds like in NZ - well it's what summer sounded like in 2011 in NZ - but still a great tune. Meet Six60..

    What Time Is It from High School Musical 2! I remember that I blasted it in stereo at the end of year 8 because I was so excited to get away from bullying for a few weeks.
