jlh#1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US, from Wikipedia, meme grabbed from a bunch of people running around doing the UK charts. My birthday is at the end of the summer so most of the songs on this list were the monster hits of the summers in question. Songs I own are in italics. Songs I think are awesome are in purple; songs I think suck are in brown. Yes, I remember all of them except, oddly, that Sisqo song from a couple of years ago.
