About
No Song of the Summer In 2025 refers to memes and discourse about the lack of a definitive "song of the summer" in summer 2025. The discourse about there being no song of the summer in 2025 started as early as May 3rd, 2025, when X user @CoumbaR posted, "is anyone gonna address the fact we don’t have our summer song yet?" The discourse continued to grow over the next few months, going viral in July.
Origin
A "song of the summer" is a commercially and culturally popular song that embodies positive, jumpy, summertime vibes. There is no officially designated song of the summer, resulting in many online debates each year about what the song of the summer is. For example, in 2024, Billboard[1] named "I Had Some Help" by Post Malone the song of the summer, while Official Charts[2] named "Espresso" by Sabrina Carpenter the song of the summer.
On May 3rd, 2025, X[3] user @CoumbaR posted, "is anyone gonna address the fact we don’t have our summer song yet ?" garnering over 1,500 likes and 2,000 reposts in two months.
