Hot weather music: 2020 edition

I think I did this a few years ago.
Those of us who are having horribly hot weather: post your "Hot Weather Tunes" here!
I'll post one a day from my favorite stash, but feel free to add yours!
I'm starting off with the B-52's!!

The Lovin' Spoonful and John Sebastian NEVER used session musicians

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city…

I feel like I've stepped into a cauldron of souls. Here's Lantern doing their new song "Cauldron of Souls"

Once, at Cure concert here in Phoenix, when it was about 115 degrees, and an outdoor concert, the Cure were playing this song, and one of the speakers caught on fire!!!!!

12. The Breeders - Summer Is Ready When You Are

The song is really called "Saints", but everyone calls it "Summer Is Ready When You Are"



I like all the different people
I like sticky everywhere
Look around, you bet I'll be there!
Hot metal in the sun
Pony in the air
Sooey and saints at the fair
Saints alive you're saying
Walk in ... squares
The hid are out, out for the year
It's a lot of face
A lot of crank air
Eroding around here
Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are
I like all the different people
I like every kind of fair
In the crowd, you bet I'll be there!
Walkin' around
Going nowhere
Seeing Sooey and saints at the fair
Summer is ready when you are
Summer is ready when you are
Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are
Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are
