Songs for a snowy day

Posted by Jeff Bailey, Executive Producer on February 26th, 2010 at 08:15:46 am , 3484 views

It started as a quip from Chris and Kristen on Good Morning Connecticut Friday about songs that remind you of the weather. I posted an item on our Good Morning Connecticut Facebook page and on Twitter asking "What song or song title fits today? It sure isn't Heatwave by Martha and the Vandellas."

We've got some great responses so far:

"Cold As Ice" by Foreigner - Mary Trupp MacLeod
Ain't No Sunshine - Bill Withers - Kim Soucy Engle
Enough Is Enough by Donna Summer - Tammy Eustis
Cat Stevens' "Into White" - @jhcovington
"Baby, It's Cold Outside" - @JeffTheRN

C'mon -- I know there are more out there. What are we missing?

There is a song I play on my station called New York Is A Lonely Town by the Tradewinds. It hit #32 in 1965. In the lyrics "My Woodie Is Down, Covered with Snow, no place to go now, New York's A Lonely Town when your the only surfer boy, around"

"Ain't No Sunshine" is hard to top. Tres apropos! How 'bout putting a positive spin on this crappy New England winter weather. May I suggest "Put On A Happy Face," ("Gray skies are gonna clear up..."). Right now, as I'm writing this and looking out my window, "Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!" would be quite appropriate.

How about either 'The Heat is On' (don't know the artist), or 'Summertime' by Will Smith. Enough of winter! It's time for the WARMTH to return! The winter fans have had their 90 days!
