b"Every year, critics and media outlets the world over put out definitive song-of-summer guides based on... well, we\\u2019re not always entirely sure. Certainly popularity, as measured by streams and radio play; not to mention that bewildering feeling that creeps up some time mid-July, prompting whispered exclamations of: \\u201cman, this song is everywhere.\\u201d But the most ubiquitous track isn\\u2019t necessarily the one you\\u2019ll have on repeat on those steamy summer commutes to work, nor is it the song you\\u2019ll want soundtracking this year\\u2019s vacations, graduations, summer flings and backyard cookouts.\\nIn this episode, we abandon the pursuit of a single song of summer, and ask the question we\\u2019re more interested in: What does summer sound like? To answer that question, we asked you, our listeners, and got some downright awesome suggestions in return. Your voicemails covered everything from Hot Girl Summer anthems and nostalgia-inducing dance jams, to globally infused collaborations and just-released future-feeling indie rock cuts. Today, we travel across the full spectrum of summer feels, and the music that comes through when we need it the most.\\nSongs DiscussedMUNA - Number One FanAmber Mark - Put You OnJonas Brothers - Only HumanShawn Mendes, Camila Cabello - Se\\xf1oritaCharlie XCX, Christine and the Queens - GoneBTS, Zara Larsson - Brand New DayKaty Perry - Teenage DreamPost Malone - SunflowerLil Nas X, Billy Ray Cyrus - Old Town RoadPinkfong - Baby Shark\\xa0Khalid - BetterMegan Thee Stallion - Big ol\\u2019 FreakMegan Thee Stallion, Juicy J - Simon SaysSaweetie - My TypePetey Pablo - Freak-A-LeakCity Girls - Act UpMegan Thee Stallion, DaBaby - Cash ShitClairo - Sofia\\xa0HAIM - Summer GirlLou Reed - Walk on the Wild SideMother\\u2019s Daughter - Miley CyrusRosal\\xeda - Aute CutureAriana Grande - NASABANKS - GimmeGrimes, Hana - We appreciate powerLizzo - Truth HurtsPaul McCartney - JetDon Henley - The Boys of SummerSantana, Rob Thomas - SmoothBritney Spears - ToxicThe Slits - I Heard it Through the Grapevine\\xa0Missy Elliott - SlideFreddie Gibbs, Madlib - CataractsVampire Weekend - 2021\\nMisc extras\\nListen to all of these songs and more on the Switched on Pop Songs of Summer 2019 Playlist.\\xa0\\nNote\\nIn this episode we made light of PTSD by using the term irreverently - thanks to listener feedback we're better aware of how destructive such diminishing comments can be to people dealing with trauma.
