Snow songs
Seeing the snow fall while I'm out walking always makes me want to burst into song. Unfortunately, the only two songs I know about falling snow--"Let It Snow" and "Winter Wonderland"--are (1) tiresome and (2) Christmassy. Does anyone have some better selections they could teach me? (I'll probably never be up to singing selections from the Winterreise.) It strikes me that there are no really good songs out there about the exhuberant pleasure of walking by yourself while falling flakes limn every twig and branch, muffle the noises of street and city, and generally convert a familiar landscape into a shining new world.
