With the Memorial Day weekend marking the unofficial start of summer, I begin a new music series called The Songs of Summer. A few times a week I will highlight some of my favorite tunes from summers past.
Let's kick things off with this classic rocker from the summer of 1982. The song spent 22 weeks in the top 40, sixteen of them in the top 10 (it peaked at #2). Back then the singer billed himself as John Cougar.
Enjoy this Song of Summer ..."Hurts So Good" by John Mellencamp.
