SummertimeNew Kids On The Block4rank/position

As a romantic song to listen to at the end of summer, I’d like to introduce “Summertime.” It’s a track released after the reunion of New Kids on the Block, the boy band that took the 1980s by storm.

The song looks back, from a male perspective, on the memories of a wonderful summer romance.

While it does touch on farewells and the end of summer, that’s not where it stops.

It goes on to depict the seasons turning and summer returning, with the narrator longing for her each time it comes around.
