August just started and that means summer vacation is almost over! BUT you can pretend that it’s summer forever with this week’s Friday Five: Vacation Songs! These songs are all sunshine in a song with lyrics that drip summer time feelings like an ice cream cone.

1. Chase Rice – Beach Town
Who doesn’t love a beach town – the tourist traps, flip flops and tank tops being standard attire.

2. 5SOS – Permanent Vacation
Everyone wishes they were on a permanent vacation – that’s the dream right there!

3. Sam Hunt – Vacation
This sums up our feelings about vacation perfectly.

4. The HEYDAZE – Arnold Palmer
No matter where you are, close your eyes and blast this song, and you’ll feel like you’re rockin’ an old tee under a palm tree having a good time under the sunshine.

5. Weezer – Island In The Sun
We can’t hear this song and not think about being on a beach, especially since it played in the Olsen Twin movie of the same name, literally every 5 minutes.
