    OK poeple,

    what are the best summer chillout songs or just summer songs. You know when it's a really hot day, all your mates are around in your house, the B-B-Q is sizzling, beers being cracked open. So what songs have you got playing in the background.

    I'll start it off with:
    Summer Breeze - The3 Isley Brothers.

    Classic summer song. Got to love it.

    Go to agree there. I particularly like "Ain't That Enough"

    As for the Summer songs:-

    Stevie Wonder - Superstition
    Weezer - Gone Fishin'
    Mundy - July Gaaahh! How obvious is that one?

    Nearly forgot...that song from Pulp Fiction Soundtrack...erm..you know "Flowers On The Wall" by The Walker Brothers or someone...Captain Kangaroo and all that mullarkey...brilliant :p

    but everybody is forgetting 'In the summertime' - Mungo Jerry!
