Seen this get mentioned a few times around ILM. Not sure whether this counts as a track from this year or not - some sources say 2013, so is it a re-release? Either way it's beautiful, elegant, restrained as anything and I've been playing it all weekend. A great DJ tool too, as it mixes into house tracks really well.

simply for the sake of argument it seems like rihanna's work might hang around long enough to be a reasonable contender for song of the summer insofar as it will destroy any party in which it is played in July.

i've spent the whole summer outside; it's been pretty brutal. plus, and i know i'm a skipping record on this point, but: lots of music to enjoy this year but no "song of the summer"!

The Timberlake was trying so earnestly and aggressively to be the Song of the Summer that it feels almost cruel to not declare it so.

I wasn't into the Kungs track at first but it totally grew on me as summer went along.

tbrr tho i don't actually have a big problem with the tune? i have never rly been particularly fond of twee vintage/modern juxta jobs (DOOP aside of course), something claustrophobic about them, but i think this one just about manages to achieve the mediated, innocuous spontaneity it's going for (which is why "v amateurish imo" is the wild dunce cap observation obv). it's probably a trickier task than it seems, and easily taken for granted
in conclusion: quite acceptable as mayfly fleeting fancy, a bit "yay, cake in the office" to integrate into ur consciousness as a tru totemic summer jam
