Summer is officially upon us, and nothing gets us in the mood for late night drives, vacations and times spent with our toes in the sand like the proper playlist — and the perfect summery music video.

Even artists set the mood for their own summer songs, filming their accompanying music videos at the beach. In May 2020, Harry Styles got us out of a quarantine slump with his colorful, seaside “Watermelon Sugar” clip, which had us craving a sugary sweet summer with its 1970s warm tones, all the smiling faces and so much watermelon. Nine years before that, Styles launched his career alongside One Direction by stealing our collective hearts while dancing around on the beach for the music video to accompany the group’s breakthrough single, “What Makes You Beautiful.”
