Neither are the greatest summer song. The Boys of Summer doesn't feel like a summer song to me, even though it has summer in the title, and Here Comes the Sun is winter or the beginning of spring. This is the greatest summer song.

If this is a battle of "greatest summer songs", then I can easily understand why Henley is ahead. I mean...."the boys of summer..." baseball and all that, which is what his song is all about. "Here comes The Sun" is a MUCH better song, but it's about emerging from winter...not the month of August or about any part of summer.

And I spent time with the band (mostly Mike Love) in 1978!

Yeah, why would they even pick that song?! Sgt. Pepper would have been a better choice! "Everybody kept on playing Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" (summer of 1967) P.S. The poll is closed and Henley of course won.

I can't believe that Henley won!!!

Oh I would pick any number of Beach Boys' songs other than "Good Vibrations" as best summer song.....Surfin' USA, Help Me Rhonda, Little Surfer Girl....and on and on.....
