5. “California Girls”—David Lee Roth
Everyone’s favorite Van Halen frontman takes a shot at the Beach Boys classic.

4. “The Heat is On”—Glen Frey
Yeah, the song from Beverly Hills Cop. You might not like it, but it will be stuck in your head later.

3. “Summer of ’69”—Bryan Adams
In 1969, Adams was only 10 years old. But this is still a fun ‘80s anthem.

2. “Boys of Summer”—Don Henley
The Ataris offered an emo version of this song a few years back, but this is the original.

1. “Hot, hot, hot”—Buster Poindexter/David Johansen
Before he was known as kitschy lounger singer Buster Poindexter, David Johansen was the singer for legendary glam rock/punk outfit, the New York Dolls. Funny how things change.
