Great summer songs.

As this is Memorial day weekend, and the unofficial start of summer, I thought I'd compile a list of great summer songs. These are not necessarily my favorite songs by the artists listed (although I DO love them, or they wouldn't be on this list), and they aren't necessarily all about summer. What these are are top down, windows down, sing along at the top of your voice, summer car songs. Fresh, breezy and fun.
(I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of good ones. I'll add more when I think of them.)
