Track Description
Available in:
"Cruel Summer" is a pop song originally written and performed by Bananarama that was a top ten hit in Britain in 1983. Singer Sara Dallin said the song "played on the darker side (of summer songs): it looked at the oppressive heat, the misery of wanting to be with someone as the summer ticked by. We've all been there!"

In 1998, the Swedish group Ace of Base recorded the song at the request of their British record label London Records (who also had released the original version). Produced by Cutfather & Joe, the song was released as the second single from their third album Flowers and as the lead single from the American version of the album entitled Cruel Summer. It reached number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold. It also reached number eight in the United Kingdom, matching the peak of the original Bananarama version.

A different "dancier" version of the song (big bonus mix) was released on mainland Europe and in the United Kingdom.
