Calvin Harris’ ‘Summer’ Turns 11: The Anthem That Never Fades

​On March 14, 2014, Calvin Harris released “Summer,” a track that quickly became synonymous with the energy summer brings. The second single from his fourth studio album, Motion, the song showcased Harris’s talents as both producer and vocalist, a role he embraced once again following his earlier song, “Feel So Close.”

“Summer” became an instant classic, topping charts in the UK and securing the number one spot on the UK Singles Chart, marking Harris’s sixth chart-topping single in his home country. In the United States, the track climbed to the seventh position on the Billboard Hot 100.

“Summer” took over when it dropped and quickly became a festival and playlist favorite, perfectly capturing that carefree summer vibe that we all chase. Even years later, it’s still going strong—just look at the 1 billion+ views on YouTube, proving it’s a song that never gets old.

As we mark over a decade since its debut, “Summer” remains an anthem, reminding us of the timeless connection between music and memories.
