William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996)īaz Luhrmann knows how to put together a modern soundtrack for classic tales. (Case in point: the '90s staple William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet came out in October 1996, but The Cardigans' hit "Lovefool" is a breezy summer jam if there was one.) From veritable greatest hits compilations like Forrest Gump to the albums that bring you right back to your childhood like 10 Things I Hate About You, these are the 13 nostalgia-heavy soundtracks that we love to listen to this time of year, in no particular order. Now, some of these soundtracks weren't necessarily released in the summer of the year they came out, but they just have that quintessential summer sound. 2014 has already provided us with some great soundtracks, including The Fault in Our Stars (Charli XCX's "Boom Clap" will undoubtedly be on repeat until Labor Day) but picked 13 classic soundtracks that are essential listening this, and every summer. Now, we don't just mean summer anthems new ("Turn Down For What") and old ("Surfin' Safari"), but the best kind of summer mix tape possible: the soundtrack. Summer is on the horizon and that means the next few months will be jam-packed with pool parties, backyard BBQs, and road trips to the beach, which means you'll need plenty of summer-friendly jams to accompany you.
