Hot Podcast Summah!


This week, Niall and Andrea are looking at the contenders for song of the summer 2022. From Beyonc\\xe9 to Harry Styles to Drake to the outsider bets, we look at the big seasonal hitters.


What is a song of the summer anyway? We pick our personal favourites of the year (or not) and look at our summer songs of the past, and yes, I force Andrea to pick some upbeat songs for the episode.


BBC Journalist Mark Savage wrote a piece in 2017 listing the key things a song of the summer needs 


They are:

1) It has to be simple

2) It should make you feel like you\'re on holiday

3) Novelty is good

4) Radio-friendly songs make bigger hits

5) It should be released before the summer

6) But it should have the word "summer" in the title
