"Summer of Love" is the first single from the studio album Bouncing Off the Satellites by American new wave band the B-52's.

The single peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, making it their highest entry up to that point (although 1994's "(Meet) The Flintstones" would reach the same position on the chart).

The original 1985 demo version was released on the B-52's 1998 compilation album Time Capsule: Songs for a Future Generation.

The single was reissued in 2017 as a limited edition 12" red vinyl.[1]
