Is there anything better than finding the perfect song for the summer? It’s the anthem you’ll belt in your car with the windows down, the tune you’ll have on repeat in your headphones as you bike through the park, and the song you’ll associate with all your best memories, trips, and nights out when you look back on summer 2024.
Thankfully, there’s no shortage of mega-hits to choose from. Right now you can’t go anywhere without “Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter, “Illusion” by Dua Lipa, or “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM” by Beyoncé gracing your eardrums. While you can (and should) pump each one of them through your speakers, certain songs will appeal to specific zodiac signs as their standout summer songs.
If you’re looking for your go-to song this season, consider the personality traits associated with your zodiac sign, including your element — are you fiery, watery, airy, or earthy? — and your ruling planet.
These factors can help you zero in on the type of music that’ll speak to you most, whether it’s a pump-up party jam to match your outgoing personality, a viral single from TikTok that everyone’s loving, or a power ballad that’ll have you in your feels.
Of course, the singer’s energy could also suck you in. It’s tough to deny the stage presence of artists like Chappell Roan. Keep reading for the perfect song of summer 2024, based on your zodiac sign.
