“Summer Holiday” is a song recorded by Cliff Richard and The Shadows, written by rhythm guitarist Bruce Welch and drummer Brian Bennett. It went to number one in the UK. It is taken from the film of the same name and is one of Richard’s best known titles. It was one of six classic hits Richard performed at his spontaneous gig at the 1996 Wimbledon Championships when rain stopped the tennis. It remains a staple of Richard’s live show.
A cover of the song by Kevin the Gerbil was used as the theme from TV-am’s 1984 series Rat on the Road II.
The melody of the song is used in the chorus of the 1986 rap tune Holiday Rap by Dutch duo MC Miker G & DJ Sven.
Summer Holiday is a British musical film released in February 1963, featuring singer Cliff Richard. The film was directed by Peter Yates (his debut), produced by Kenneth Harper.

We’re all going on a summer holiday No more working for a week or two Fun and laughter on a summer holiday No more worries for me or you For a week or two
We’re going where the sun shines brightly We’re going where the sea is blue We’ve seen it in the movies Now let’s see if it is true Everybody has a summer holiday Doing things they always wanted to So we’re going on a summer holiday To make our dreams come true For me and you We’re going where the sun shines brightly We’re going where the sea is blue We’ve seen it in the movies Now let’s see if it is true Everybody has a summer holiday Doing things they always wanted to So we’re going on a summer holiday To make our dreams come true For me and you |
