Songs for the End of Summer
Well, it’s that time of year again. The end of Summer. The temperature begins to drop. Leaves start falling. Less sun. More clouds. Things start to smell differently. If you’re a beach goer, then you’re probably pretty bummed, but if you’re like me, and your average body temperature is somewhere between the surface of the sun and a raging volcano, then you’re probably welcoming Fall and the cooler weather with open arms. With that being said, the Summer isn’t over just yet, and there’s still at least a few weeks to bask in the chill vibes of the sunny season. So, before we welcome hoodie weather, pumpkin spice lattes, and the sound of leaves crunching under our feet, first let’s wind down with some of my favorite Summer tracks.
5) The Only Place by Best Coast
When I think of chill, beachy Summer vibes, I think of California, which is kind of crazy considering I’ve never actually be there. With ‘The Only Place,’ Best Coast rattles off just about everything that makes the Golden State the best place to be in the Summer. Summer is often thought about as a celebration, and with this song, Best Coast gave us an anthem to start off every beach day. Listening to this track, one cannot help but imagine riding down the coast line on a warm, breezy day, top down and not a care in the world. So, slip on your favorite pair of sandals, and your best pair of imitation gas station Ray Bans and crank this tune loud while you celebrate all things Summer!
4) Doin’ Time/Summertime by Sublime
The end of Summer has this weird way of forcing us to look back. Not just on the closing season, but seemingly on the entire year to date. At least, that’s the effect that it tends to have on me. It’s not a bad thing. It’s just something that happens. Maybe it does for you, too? Anyway, ‘Doin’ Time’ is a classic late 90’s jam from the seminal third wave Ska band, Sublime. For those of you that are a little younger, it was also covered by Lana Del Rey in 2019. Regardless of which version you prefer, the song is a Summer staple. It’s chill, meditative vibe is best served with a cold Corona and lime while slouched in your comfiest beach chair. The song itself sees the narrator looking back on the situations he’s recently found himself in, all the while immersed in the easy living vibes of a hot, steamy Summer. An in-depth look at the lyrics prove somewhat bitter, but the music and vibe go down smooth as strawberry margaritas on a warm, cool August evening.
3) (Sittin’ On The) Dock of the Bay by Otis Redding
I’m from Long Island, New York. I’ve lived on the South Shore basically my whole entire life. While I’ve never lived on literal beach front property, I’ve also never truly been more than a 5 minute drive from the water, either. Generally speaking, the closest body of water to me has always been the Great South Bay, and now the Shinnecock Bay, and so this song has always really resonated with me. It’s an especially chill Summer song. It beckons memories of lazy days spent doing nothing but kicking back and relaxing. The song itself caresses your ears with the gentle sounds of lapping waves, and care free whistling, with the narrator encouraging us to clear our minds, and enjoy the tranquil sounds of Summer on the water. If there was ever a song which embodies the spirit of “Time you enjoy wasting is never wasted,” ‘(Sittin’ On The) Dock of the Bay’ would be it.
2) Cruel Summer by Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is on fire lately. One of the things that makes her great is her innate ability to connect with her fans, and ‘Cruel Summer’ is no exception. The song details the narrator’s highly painful experience while falling for a Summer crush. Ah yes, the Summer romance. Many of us have been there as kids. School is out. You have what feels like a lifetime ahead of you. The world is suddenly bright, sunny and full of flowers, and you’ve found yourself “in love” for the first time. Suddenly, as quickly as it began, the Summer ends, and your supposed love life comes crashing down along with it. It’s a classic tale of teenage woe. So, with this song Taylor Swift elicits those memories of “love” lost, while coupling them with smooth, synth vibes cascading to a beautiful crescendo as the song comes to a close. If you’re the poetic type you might even liken Swift’s tale of love lost to Summer giving way to the brisk, cold air of Fall.
1) The Boys of Summer by Don Henley
Sometimes I like to try and dig deep, and surprise the reader with my picks. Other times it’s all too obvious. Why try and reinvent the wheel, right? In 1984, Don Henley wrote the quintessential Summer song, and in my opinion, no one has bettered him since. Really, what’s not to love? It’s chill. It’s anthemic. It’s seemingly upbeat, with a deep, dark melancholic underbelly. If Summer could be described in terms of old school, black and white noir, ‘The Boys of Summer’ would be the plot. Recently, Taylor Swift brought us back to a time when young love slipped through our adolescent fingers, but here Don Henley has taken things to the next level. The song is steeped in nostalgia, and yearning for seemingly better times and lost ideals of previous generations. A quote by writer Tim Lowery basically sums it up best: “Anyone who claims not to feel chill when Henley recounts seeing a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac probably needs a pulse check. This is beachside existentialism 101.”
That wraps up my Songs for the End of Summer list. I hope you’re allowing the chill vibes to wash over you like cool ocean water. While Summer may be almost over, there’s still time to soak up the sun and hit the beach. Now all that’s left for you to do go hunting for all of these records, but don’t stop there! There are dozens upon dozens of fun and interesting Summer themed records waiting to be discovered. I hope you all enjoy the rest of your Summer! While you’re at it, pair the sunshine with a record, and head over to the ETR Store and choose a category to snag a fun mystery grab bag vinyl album for only $9.99!
Until next time, keep on spinning.

Hello everyone here, about 4-5 months ago I was suicidal as I had lost all my savings to a bitcoin investment sc^m I saw its ad on Facebook. I could not forgive myself and almost took my own life when my sister found out she then introduced me to a hacker that they went to college together name ‘REFUND POLICY’ whom she said could help me recover the money I had sent to the sc^mmers. I was hesitant at first because I never believed it was possible. It only took 48hours or less for my lost funds to be fully recovered.
I am so glad and grateful that these people didn’t get away with my funds. Thanks to ‘REFUND POLICY.’. This is why I am putting this out here incase any one has ever made such mistake, it is not too late at all, you can still recover your money.

I recently hired the services of Wizard James by contacting him through his email: wizardjamesrecovery (AT) usa (DOT) com to help me recover my bitcoin of worth $46,000 that was stolen from my wallet and diverted to an unpermitted account. At first, I was skeptical about using him for recovery services only to find out that he was professional, helpful and transparent throughout the process. He clearly explained his methods and costs and kept me informed at each step. After 3 days of constant working and communicating, he finally retrieved my lost bitcoins. I felt indebted to him and apart from trying to express my gratitude to him once again, I decided to use this medium to recommend him to anyone who wants to recover or fix anything digital currency-related.

It can be terrible experience to lose your bitcoin or cryptocurrency, especially if you put all of your money into it. Everyone assumes that recovering and attributing cryptocurrency is impossible. I’m here to inform you that, with sufficient understanding, bitcoins and any other cryptocurrency can be entirely restored. I was fortunate to find Software Specialist, an electronic currency recovery operator, who was able to retrieve every penny I lost in bitcoin while investing with an unwise platform. Software Specialist’s assistance has been greatly appreciated, and I heartily endorse his services to anyone who requires a dependable and reputable crypto recovery business. By email, you can get in touch with Software Specialist :softwarespecialist@usa.com.

I’m a victim of legacyfxglobalmarkets scam which all started with just a deposit of £400. The next deposit I was forced to pay quickly turned to £1,500 and every time I tried to cash out they asked for more to cover for taxes and other complicated government fees. My profits had accumulated to £117,000 as it would show on my mobile application but I could not access it. By the time I came to my senses that the company is illegitimate, l had already lost a total of £50,000. I researched about the company to confirm my fears and I came across a page where other people who had lost money to them shared their stories. Among the comments was from an elderly guy who shared how he got his profits back through the help of Mr James a genius recovery/hacker. I decided to try my luck and presented my case to him, which they were already familiar with and so I got back everything within 24 hours. I’m writing to confirm that Mr james is absolutely functional. If by any means you’re also a victim of online scam kindly send a message accross to them via: jamesmckaywizard@gmail.com or via what’sapp // +919863293475.. And chat with them DIRECTLY..

It is commonly believed that lost or stolen bitcoin is irretrievable, but what many people don’t realize is that the field of blockchain forensics is continually evolving. This evolution has made it easier to identify, trace, and recover stolen, hacked, or scammed crypto assets. However, it’s important to note that only a very small number of professional recovery experts and hackers possess the expertise to accomplish such complex tasks. If you have lost or been scammed using cryptocurrency, it is highly recommended that you open a detailed case with proh4ckz@protonmail.com, a trusted professional recovery agent who has successfully recovered significant amounts of stolen bitcoin for numerous victims.

I’ve always played lottery games with the hope that someday I will win but that never happened. I did some research online and I came across an advert about Dr Amber who helps people that believe in his work. I explained my situation to him and he prepared a lottery spell for me and gave me some special digits to play the lottery. I did as he said without any skepticism and could you believe that after 3 days, I checked my ticket at a store where I bought it from and for the very first time in my life, I won the sum of £30,820,000 MILLION POUNDS. Now my life has changed for good, I am a boss of my own and I am so happy that I meant this great man called Dr Amber. You can be a boss of your own too by getting in touch with him. For urgent response from Dr Amber, send a WhatsApp text or call to +1 409 241 8060 or send an email to; amberlottotemple@gmail.com
