Beat This Summer

"Beat This Summer" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Brad Paisley.

"[3] Giving it a "thumbs up", Karlie Justus Marlowe of Engine 145 said that "The contrast in swirling instrumentation and simple lyric delivery is stark and successful, adding interest and spark.

But here, the storyline isn’t so much the focus as is it is the feeling of frenetic love with an expiration date", although she thought that the amount of production "very nearly goes into overload".

It tells the story of 2 kids, one male and one female, who meet on the boardwalk and spend the day doing various activities together, including having a tea party on the beach, going on rides, and playing and winning several games.

When night falls, they are seen on a carousel together and the male lead is sporting a cowboy hat (possibly referencing a young Paisley.)
