The excitement of summer is tinged with the oxymoronic combination of the rush of nostalgia and the anticipation of what is yet-to-come. As the weather finally begins to warm up and the days get longer, here’s a brief playlist of classic jams handpicked by several real-life parents that prove that solid sountracks and summer car rides are experiences that transcend generational gaps (and that sometimes it’s okay to agree with your parents). Cheers to un-rolled windows,
