Summer is rapidly approaching, which means many of the current songs we'll hear blaring out of radios are contenders for song of the season. In honor of the Hot 100's upcoming 60th anniversary (and the return of the weekly Songs of the Summer chart), Billboard has ranked the 100 hottest songs to make waves on the chart during the summers of 1958-2017.

METHODOLOGY:

Billboard's Top 100 Songs of the Summer 1958-2017 chart is based on each track?s performance on the Billboard Hot 100 during the summer tracking period from Memorial Day through Labor Day. The chart was compiled utilizing an inverse point system for 1959 (the Hot 100?s first full summer) through 1991 (the final summer prior to the advent of Nielsen Music data), with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at No. 100 earning the least. From 1992 through 2017, the chart incorporates point totals accumulated from radio airplay and sales, as well as points from other data sets (i.e., streaming) that were included in the Hot 100. Years were then weighted to ensure fairly equal representation for songs of all eras of the Hot 100?s history.
