Simple Minds - Someone Somewhere In Summertime
Not the studio version, but a live remake. Nice sound with some guest musicians.
I really liked their New Gold Dream album but will almost always pick a quality live version if available.

 
Seals and Croft SUMMER BREEZE

Otis Reading SITTING ON THE DOCK OF THE BAY

Billy Ocean CARIBBEAN QUEEN
Caribbean Queen (No More Love On the Run) - YouTube Music

Sam Cooke SUMMERTIME
Show off. I belief this qualifies if you package it with the now iconic movie of the same name.

Lonnie Liston Smith - Summer Afternoon. I think this one is about as pretty as a tune can get:

 

Good singer. Too bad she's missing a toe.

"You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. I'll get you a toe by this afternoon--with nail polish. These amateurs."

But, she did get lingonberry pancakes out of the deal.
 
Seal With A Kiss,
Though we've gotta say goodbye
For the summer
Darling, I promise you this
I'll send you all my love
Every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss

Yes! It's gonna be a cold
Lonely summer
But I'll fill the emptiness
I'll send you all my dreams
Every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss

I'll see you
In the sunlight
I'll hear your voice everywhere
I'll run
To tenderly hold you
But, darling, you won't be there!

I don't want to say goodbye
For the summer
Knowing the love we'll miss
Oh! Let us make a pledge
To meet in September
And seal it with a kiss

Grateful Dead, Weather Report.

Winter rain, now tell me why
Summers fade and roses die
The answer came, the wind and rain

Golden hills now veiled in gray
Summer leaves have blown away
Now what remains, the wind and rain...
