"Cruel Summer" is a pop song written and originally performed by Bananarama that was a top ten hit in Britain (1983) and the U.S. (1984).
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!" "
Cruel Summer" was not an immediate international success when it was released. Although it hit #8 on the UK Chart, its international popularity soared after its inclusion in the 1984 feature film The Karate Kid; this was a year after the song's original release (the song was released in 1984 in the US).
The group did not allow the song to be included on the film's soundtrack album, but regardless it was their first top ten hit (#9) in the USA.
When Bananarama were still struggling to make money in their early years, they even performed the song at a beauty contest in Hawaii.
