Remember Those Summers of Love?

Or at least what passed for love in your youth? Nothing brings back memories like a song. Those were the days of convertibles, drive-in movies, beach parties, juke boxes, first jobs, and summer crushes! As baby boomers, we might even get to believing summers have never been the same since.

Help us create the Ultimate Baby Boomer Summer Playlist!

Between now and June 29, tell us your favorite summer song or songs -- and you’re eligible to win six free months of Sirius Satellite radio where you can listen to songs of the 60s, 70s and 80s anytime you want to. It’s easy to join in. There are two ways to enter:

  • Tell us your favorite summer song: either comment on Facebook, Twitter, or email us at info@babyboomers.com.
  • Simply sign up for our FIRST LOOK email, sent twice a month with our newest stories and hot topics.

We want to bring it all back – at least for a little bit of fun and reminiscing. Was it the Beach Boys and Good Vibrations? Or Olivia Newton John and John Travolta and Summer Nights? Or Sly & the Family Stone and Hot Fun in the Summertime? Or The Ramones and Rockaway Beach.

It doesn’t have to have “Summer” in the title. Maybe it was dancing to The Twist or The Loco Motion or to all seven minutes of the Doors and Light My Fire. Maybe you were falling in love – or breaking up -- to Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?, Where Did Our Love Go?, or I Can’t get No Satisfaction! Or maybe it was Donna SUMMER singing Bad Girls/Hot Stuff.

Need more clues to get you started? James Taylor, the Four Tops, Chicago, Jimmy Buffet, the Eagles, the Beetles, and Fleetwood Mac. Elton John, the BeeGees, and John Denver. There was something for everyone. What was it for YOU?

So we’re going to collect your selections – and get back to you on July 2 with what can be the Ultimate Baby Boomer Summer Playlist. And you just might win six months of Satellite Radio!

Here’s how to participate:

Tell us your favorite summer song by Facebook, Twitter or email: info@babyboomers.com. Or sign up for our First Look Email.

If you tell us your favorite song AND sign up for our email, we'll enter you twice. Good news - if you already receive our First Look email, you're automatically entered to win, but you can tell us your favorite song and increase your chances of winning.

We want to know WHY a song is special, so tell WHAT MEMORIES you connect to a song too! If you do, we'll give you an extra chance to win.

The winner will receive a $100 gift card to SiriusXM. This amount can cover 6 months of SiriusXM Select, but the gift card can be used as desired. For more information on satellite radio and SiriusXM, click here.

Good luck and thanks for having some fun with us!
