Summer Holiday (song)

"Summer Holiday" is a song recorded by Cliff Richard and the Shadows, written by rhythm guitarist Bruce Welch and drummer Brian Bennett.

[3] The track is one of Richard's best known titles and it remains a staple of his live shows.

It was one of six hits Richard performed at his spontaneous gig at the 1996 Wimbledon Championships when rain stopped the tennis.

[4] In 2019, the UK Government's Drinkaware campaign parodied Summer Holiday for a string of radio adverts and videos for the "No Alcoholiday" initiative to encourage people to have drink-free days.

Notes: The B-side "Dancing Shoes" also entered some charts, some of which are listed below.
