Suggestions for a really good summer driving mix compilation
Discussion
actually, doesn't need to be specifically for driving, just a good mix of summer music.
Having grown up in the 80's, most of my music tastes runs to shoe-gazing, angst ridden indie stuff so happy poppy music isn't something that comes to my music collection easily. I need a list of tracks to put on my MP3 player, what can you suggest?
My list so far is:

My list so far is:
- Echo Beach - Martha & The Muffins
- Surfin' USA - Jesus & Mary Chain
- Misirlou - Dick Dale
- Club Tropicana - Wham (what can I say? It's perfect for summer, and who would have guessed that they were really airline pilots? Remember - drinks are free, fun and sunshine enough for everyone. All that's missing is the sea, but don't worry, you can suntan)
- Walkin' on Sunshine - Katriona and the Waves
- Summer (The First Time) - Bobby Goldsboro (if only for what could be the cheesiest song lyric, evah "sat on the sand, a boy took her hand, but I saw the sun rise as a man").
- Summer Breeze - Isley Brothers?
ETA:
- Staying out for the Summer - Dodgy
