5 Songs We Can't Stop Listening To This Summer

Summer is officially here! Celebrate by adding these songs to your iPod playlist for your next pool party or beach outing.

1. "This Summer's Gonna Hurt Like a Motherf****r" - Maroon 5

Not since Bananarama's "Cruel Summer" has a song made us feel both so melancholy and so sexy about the hottest time of the year. An added bonus is the song's video, which opens with a gratuitous shot of Adam Levine's backside. MTV should just give the group the moonman for Video of the Year for that scene alone.

2. "Hey Mama" - David Guetta, Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha & Afrojack

David and Nicki have teamed up again and the results are even better than their last collaboration. If you don't have this song on your playlist, you should cancel your upcoming pool party immediately.

3. "You Know You Like It" - DJ Snake & AlunaGeorge

The DJ who introduced "Turn Down For What" into a catchphrase for dance floors in nightclubs, bar mitzvahs, and wedding receptions has turned down the beat to deliver a sultry remix to this 3-year old song. Many a lap dance will be given to this track at strip clubs and in bedrooms all season long.

4. "Fun" - Pitbull & Chris Brown

Take a Casio keyboard to create a '80s pop beat, add Mr. Worldwide and Breezy, and you've got a summer smash. Seriously, does anyone else start having flashbacks of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" when they hear this song?

5. "Worth It" - Fifth Harmony

Fifth Harmony didn't win the season of X-Factor they competed on, but they've had the best success story of the show's U.S. version. Their hot streak continues with this track -- equal parts sass and class, and a rhythmic brass hook that stays in your head long after you hear it. Horny horns break it down!
