Almost 45 years later, the tune is still finding its way back onto the list of "Best Summer Rock Songs Ever," largely due to its bright, energetic sound and surfy guitars, despite the emotional depth beneath its upbeat tone.
Released as the title track of the all-female rock band’s 1982 album, "Vacation" captured the energy of the MTV-era pop-rock. On the surface, it sounds like a carefree tune, but it uses the idea of a “vacation” as a metaphor for ending a relationship and using the time off to get over a crush.
To this date, it remains one of the group’s biggest hits, helping define their explosive run in the early ’80s, while also solidifying their place in pop-rock history.
Billboard even hailed it a “perfect summer record” for “lazy beach days,” so naturally, it’s made its way onto plenty of summer playlists as the perfect soundtrack for roadtrips, outdoor outings, and social media captures.
The track serves as a reminder that even something rooted in heartache and the end of a romance can become an unexpected and timeless seasonal anthem.
