Genius Annotation
“Summer Madness” is considered to be its album’s highlight, incorporating smooth melodies and a synthesizer. Imagine cruising at a steady 30mph through the beach with the top down and playing this song.
Seems like Rockstar games had the same idea, since this song features on their video game Grand Theft Auto Vice City. It was also in Tony Hawk Project 8. It is also FREQUENTLY sampled in other songs.
