Summer Western Music Songs Ranking [2026] (21–30)
The NightsAvicii22rank/position
This is the song The Nights, released in 2015 by Avicii, a music producer from Sweden.
It’s about talking with his father about life.
Avicii sadly passed away in 2018.
This is one of the songs he released while he was still alive, and rereading the lyrics now feels especially moving.
August is also the season when many people return to their hometowns.
Having an open, heartfelt talk with your family could make for a wonderful summer memory.
I Gotta FeelingThe Black Eyed Peas23rank/position
This summer classic by the Black Eyed Peas is famous for showcasing their shift from hip-hop and reggae to electro.
It’s an upbeat track that blends a club-friendly digital production with exhilarating lyrics, guaranteed to get the crowd going.
Hey Ya!OutKast24rank/position
Known as one of OutKast’s hit songs, this track was produced by André 3000 and released as one of the lead singles from the album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.
Dropped in 2003, it enjoyed massive worldwide popularity, topping numerous charts in countries like the United States and Australia.
At first glance, its bright and fun melody stands out, but it’s actually a deeper work that portrays the complexity and uncertainty of modern relationships.
The contrast between its dance-floor-ready vibe and lyrics that probe the nature of love is especially compelling.
Perfect for summer parties—or for when you want to reflect on romance.
#SELFIEThe Chainsmokers25rank/position
The Chainsmokers are an electro duo based in New York.
They began their career in 2012 and released “#SELFIE” in 2014, which became a global hit.
While this song isn’t themed around fireworks, I thought its vibe would be perfect for events like fireworks festivals, so I chose it.
The lyrics are quite vulgar, depicting content similar to what you might associate with flashy, party-loving girls in Japan.
SorryJustin Bieber26rank/position
Among the dance-pop hits that took America by storm, this track stands out as one of the earliest with a tropical vibe—perfect for the height of summer in August.
It’s no exaggeration to say that this song helped popularize tropical-flavored tracks worldwide.
When it comes to tropical house incorporating island-inspired sounds, you’ve probably heard this at least once.
A gentle apology to a lover, the song is included on Justin Bieber’s smash-hit album “Purpose,” released on October 23, 2015.
HotAvril Lavigne27rank/position
“Hot” is the perfect song to listen to in the summer, when you’re in an open, carefree mood.
It’s featured on Canadian rock musician Avril Lavigne’s third album, The Best Damn Thing, and was released as a single in 2007.
Although it didn’t sell well in the United States, it became a hit in Canada, several European countries, and Australia.
Rooted in a rock sound, this hot track captures the excitement and joy of being in love—especially relatable if you’ve got a significant other.
Avril Lavigne’s poppy sweetness and the energizing sound are sure to heat up your summer!
Cruel SummerBananarama28rank/position
Released in 1984, the film The Karate Kid became a worldwide hit.
One of the songs famously used in it is Cruel Summer, created by the British girl group Bananarama.
With its synthesizer melodies and their vocals, it’s a track that feels wonderfully polished.
The lyrics depict a woman suffering from the summer heat and the pain of a broken heart.
Be sure to give it a listen on those sweltering summer days.
