The Fourth of July is in the rearview mirror, with all the hot dogs having been consumed and (hopefully, for the sake of my dog) all the fireworks having been launched. That means we are in the throes of summer, complete with mosquitoes and humidity and dreaming about being at the pool rather than at your desk.
Summer also means we are in prime new music territory, and there are several candidates I’ve found that could be 2023’s Song of the Summer. The Song of the Summer is one that you can’t escape. That plays all the time. That brightens your mood. Think 2013’s “Get Lucky” by Daft Punk or “As It Was” by Harry Styles last summer.
