What we know about summer: You'll sweat, you'll get a sunburn, and you'll hear one song over and over. Which one? Here, our best guesses.
COLDPLAY ''Violet Hill''
Chris Martin & Co. get dark and sexy on this Pink Floyd-like first
single from their upcoming album, Vida La Vida (out June 17).
MARIAH CAREY ''Migrate''
What's summer without Mimi in the mix? This club-thumping midtempo jam
from the just-married diva could rise to the top before Labor Day.
MAROON 5 FEAT. RIHANNA ''If I Never See Your Face Again''
The L.A. rockers recruited last summer's singles champ to perk
up this track from their 2007 album. And given that ''Umbrella'' is
permanently stuck in our heads, we'd be fools to bet against it.
FERGIE ''Labels or Love''
Love Fergie? Can't wait for the Sex and the City movie? Too bad this
aggressively callow song (featured in the film) is both tacky and
clichéd. Hey, Ferg: Stop talking about your designer goodies and just
sing.
