Summer is finally here, so what better time to ask a load of musicians to name the sunniest tunes known to man?
Here, then, are 40 essential summer songs, as chosen by a panel of artists, including Franz Ferdinand, Coldplay, Madonna and Oasis.
Chosen by Sam Fogarino, Interpol.
"I love the original, but I actually prefer a cover version by The Sea and Cake. It’s a seamless rendition of the Bowie favourite. Sam Prekop’s vocals take nothing away from the original version but do add a quality previously unheard. This, coupled with John McIntyre’s production aesthetic and massive skill behind the drumkit, could only create a classic of a classic”.
