I remember when the 1960's looked kind of gritty. Compared to 2024, they look absolutely charming.

These visuals are always what I imagined when I hear this song

I am 68 and I remember hanging out with my cousin listening to WHB 710 AM Kansas City Missouri, on our transistor radio, we were just kids and we loved this song, sometimes my big Brother would let us ride around with him and we loved this song, AM Radio was great, Top 40 , those were the days

Same. Fantastic opening sequence. And the song got a UK re-release in 95, which coincidentally was a record breaking summer and a great year to be 16 and living in Torquay.

Summer of '61 learned to use a jackhammer , dig a ditch, shore a ditch so it wouldn't cave in and kill a man. Love the jackhammer in this song. Makes it real.

The timing was just right with the release of this song with summer in the title in July of 1966.

Nice period (mid-sixties)film images till near the very end. Great song!

This song so wants me to go back to the 60s.

Sensational! You got the mood of that time with the best song and the best images!

Makes me think of my upbringing in Detroit in the 50s and 60s. Minimal air conditioning. It was hot!

My mom and dad are both from Detroit and grew up in Dearborn around that time. When they married in 1965 they moved to Ann Arbor. They didn't have air conditioning until 1988, 16 years after moving to Plymouth!

Lyrics Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people looking half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be all right And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city Cool town, evening in the city Dressing so fine and looking so pretty Cool cat, looking for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be all right And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people looking half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be all right And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city

Great song & thx for the lyrics.Summer is on its way. 🌻😜🔥💥. Thank you.

This song inexplicably popped in my head 15 mins ago. No particular reason 😉

One of the best summer athems. Here in new york over the deacades in the summer time its in the 90s

Good edit.

Brace yourselves: before city revitalization and, toward the end, real, truly real American living, outdoors, in the Sun!

Do i like the film or the music the most ? Couldnot decide.

War Summer of 66 contrasts with the current One in the list images

“And the summer came, the New York summer, which is like no summer anywhere. The heat and the noise began their destruction of nerves and sanity and private lives and love affairs. The air was full of baseball scores and bad news and people, made more hostile by the heat. It was not possible in this city, as it had been for Eric in Paris, to take a long and peaceful walk at any hour of the day or night, dropping in for a drink at a bistro or flopping oneself down at a sidewalk cafe- the half-dozen grim parodies of sidewalk cafes to be found in New York were not made for flopping. It was a city without an oasis, run entirely, insofar, at least as human perception could tell, for money; and its citizens seemed to have lost any sense of their right to renew themselves. Whoever, in New York, attempted to cling to this right, lived in New York in exile- in exile from the life around him; and this, paradoxically, had the effect of placing him in perpetual danger of being forever banished from any sense of himself.” James Balwin
