“It Made Me Laugh”: People Can’t Believe Bryan Adams Has To Clarify Meaning Behind “Summer Of ’69”

While people had always suspected Bryan Adams’ iconic 1984 hit Summer Of ‘69 was about, as its title might sound like, the rocker’s epic summers in the late 1960s, the actual meaning has finally come out from the musician himself.

Bryan reportedly admitted he was going to call the song Best Days Of My Life, but chose to instead reference the sex position 69.

The Canadian music star told the Sunday Times: “Well, I was going to call the song Best Days of My Life but mentioning ’69’ felt a bit more provocative. Isn’t this talk a bit sexy for breakfast time?”
