Songs of Summer? (dancing, jazz, genre, title, DJ)

I could use some help from any/all music lovers. I am writing a teen comedy screenplay which takes place over the course of a summer. Every list I have seen on the internet for best summer songs include mostly older songs or songs that I would have already thought of.

I am looking for some songs, that to you,remind you of summer. All genres of music are fair game. I listen to music while I write and I would love to be able to listen to some music that has a "summer" feel to it, in the hope that it can inspire me or put me in a summer mood.

Please dont list these songs, I am already well aware of their summer ties

1. Any Beach Boys song
2. Boys of Summer - Don Henley or The Ataris
3. Summer Lovin - John Travolta and Olivia Newton John
4. Schools Out - Alice Cooper
5. Summer in the City - The Lovin' Spoonful
6. Summertime - DJ Jazzy Jeff and Will Smith
7. Wipeout - The Safaris
8. Any surf music for that matter.
9. Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
10. Dancing in the Street - Martha and the Vandellas

As you can see, I am looking for more songs that have a feel of summer, not just those that mention "summer" or have "summer" in the title. I would appreciate any and all suggestions. Thanks!
