Labor Day marks the traditional end of the summer season, and many people celebrate the long weekend with gatherings of family and friends. Since everything's better with music, I thought I'd share my top 5 favorite songs of this past summer, which are also perfect for playing while grilling and watching football or whatever else you'll be doing!

I'm not dissing Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift, who had huge songs over the last three months, but these songs seem to fit the "summer" mood better. My picks weren't necessarily released during the summer, but they seemed to be everywhere, from the beach to the snowball stand to the car radio! Enjoy!
