Twitter recently revealed new data that shows which summer hits were the hottest and generated the most buzz online between May 27 and August 19.

Can you guess which song tops the charts and is the Song of Summer?
We polled some of our team, and asked them what song came to mind when they thought of summer sixteen.
Here are the Mad Music picks:
DNCE, "Cake by the Ocean"
Justin Timberlake, "Can't Stop the Feeling!"
Andy Grammer, "Honey I'm Good"
Drake, "Controlla"
Adele, "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)"
Surprisingly no one guessed the #1 spot, and many of our team’s picks didn’t even make the list even though many of the songs were #1 hits.
The #1 Song of Summer, according to Twitter, is...
- #1 - While only a month old, “Cold Water,” Justin Bieber’s collaboration with Major Lazer and MØ takes the crown, and proves that Bieber and his Beliebers make his beats buzzworthy
