Friday Faves: Songs of Summer 2013

Happy first day of summer!! Pack your emergency summer fun kit and get in the car, roll down the windows, and turn up the stereo to my favorite songs of summer 2013!

These jams have a fresh sound, yet old skool groove that make me feel sexy and sophisticated and forget that I’m a frumpy mother of 2 cruising around in a minivan.

Yes, I’m talkin’ ’bout Robin, Bruno, and Pharrell – LOVE those guys.

Now, let’s dance.

Blurred Lines // Robin Thicke

Treasure // Bruno Mars

Get Lucky // Daft Punk feat. Pharrell Williams

Is it just me, or do these songs feel throwback-ish kinda like an image on Instagram?

  1. My girls LOVE that Daft Punk song! I am not a huge fan of the Robin Thicke one but I probably just have not heard it enough. Love everything by Bruno Mars! Stopping by from the SITS Sharefest on Twitter.-Ashley

    • Thanks for stopping by! I became a fan of Robin Thicke when his album “The Evolution of Robin Thicke” came out…if you’re not a fan yet, start there – every song is good! and I can’t get enough of Bruno Mars, that cutie!

  2. great suggestions – I”m needing to load up the ipod for the pool right now 🙂 saw your post on sitsgirls. Thanks for inspiring us to get our groove on today!

  3. I LOVE these two, but Ive never seen the videos. They certainly DO feel retro!

    • I made sure to not put the unrated version of “blurred lines” on my blog because it’s definitely NOT family-friendly. BOOBS everywhere! Thanks for stopping by, Stephanie!

  4. LOVE the Robin Thicke song. I had not heard it yet, but I will be playing that one often around the house. I am loving Lorde’s “Royals” – I can’t quite tell why, but I love it. And the new Josh Ritter album! Thanks for the tips on the songs of the summer!

  5. I am pathetic. Why have I not ever heard any of these songs?! Yes they kind of feel like a throw back but that’s not a bad thing!!!

  6. Very throwback! And definitely great picks! 🙂 On a side note, even the way Bruno Mars dresses is old school!

  7. Here from SITS! Love the Daft Punk song! My kids and I have also been rocking out to Can’t Hold Us by Macklemore! It’s catchy, too!

  9. Yes, it’s definitely throwback! I love Blurred Lines and Bruno Mars.
    What I’m loving about music is that I feel that I have a connection with my boys and we turn it up in the car and get our groove on.

    Visiting from SITSsharefest! It was great meeting you!

  10. XM generally plays these songs all day over and over but I love that they do. Especially Bruno Mars. That guy’s voice is like velvet!
