A new study commissioned by First Choice to mark the 10th anniversary of their all-inclusive Holiday Villages has revealed that the Black Eyed Peas' major hit 'I Gotta Feeling' is the nation's top summer anthem.

'We Are Young' by fun. and Janelle Monae comes in at number four, and Dizzee Rascal's 'Holiday' takes number five.
