Dimitri Kechagias review:  Calvin Harris is a real phenomenon. He is a hit producer that never stops to impress with every single or remix he does. His singles manage to reach the number 1 position at the official UK Top 40 easily and everybody is waiting with wide open ears his top productions. He definitely has the Midas touch and his forthcoming single is a big proof for that. Summer is all about the season that everybody loves and waits with anticipation to come cause simply it means holidays and endless walks in the park. Now this beloved season found this wonderful track to capture its real essence. What is really amazing for this new single is that Calvin Harris is the singer of the track and we must admit that his voice is really witty and very sexy indeed. The lyrics quite simple but very catchy and bright as represent many of hour life stories that happened during summer. Love stories that started during the summer and ended in the summer and others that continued for many more summers as well. The track is modern epic progressive house but incorporates elements of old school French house with retro tendencies as well. The result is the type of track that old ages can get satisfaction and radio stations will adopt straight away. Summer is just around the corner and the next Calvin Harris number 1 UK Top 40 too. Lovable artist! #PureGold Love iT
