summer anthem

Warm-weather earworm

A summer anthem is a song that captures the carefree, energetic mood of the season—typically upbeat, meant for parties, road trips, or beach outings.

The term suggests a track that defines or dominates a particular summer: That song was the summer anthem of 2019.

Summer anthems tend to be catchy, widely popular, and strongly associated with warm-weather memories.
