A Month Of... Weather...

Last day of the weather theme today, and with winter fast approaching, let's give a wistful sigh as we look back and remember days of ice cream and walking around in sleeveless tops...

Mungo Jerry and "In The Summertime"...

Be it High or Low, we're always "Under Pressure" (air pressure, of course) with Queen & David Bowie...

And, yes, it's another repeat... you lot are no help at all!

Go on... see if you can redeem yourselves for the last 2 days and save me racking my brains further... suggestions on a comment, please...

A Month Of... Weather...

It's cold today... almost cold enough for "Snow" (okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little)...

Had a choice of 2 "Snow" songs, and couldn't really decide which to go for, so I've reached a compromise with myself...

The video to "Snow" by JJ72... I'd forgotten just how good this song is...



And a link to the video of "Snow ((Hey Oh))" by Red Hot Chili Peppers here.

A Month Of... Weather...

Okay, I know I'm repeating rainbows, but I love this song...

The Rolling Stones (yes, yes, yes... I did it... I managed not to call them The Strolling Bo... oh, bollocks) and "She's A Rainbow"...

A Month Of... Weather...

Let's go for an opposite extreme from yesterday... Martha & The Vandellas and "(Love Is Like A) Heat Wave"...

A Month Of... Weather...

Uh oh... I'm starting to run out of ideas for this month, folks... at least without repeating weather conditions lots of times (for instance, I could offer you so many songs about rain, or wind, or sunshine... but that's cheating).

Any suggestions gratefully received...

For now, let's have some Foreigner and "Cold As Ice"... can only find it live though, and it's not great...

A Month Of... Weather...

I have just one word to say today... sorry...

Russ Abbot and "Atmosphere"...

A Month Of... Weather...

A bit of The Bangles today and "Hazy Shade Of Winter"... of course, originally done by Simon & Garfunkel...

Monday, September 14, 2009

A Month Of... Weather...

Okay, enough of this bad weather! The sun is shining here in Orkney today, so let's have a bit of "Summer Breeze" by The Isley Brothers...

Yes, I know this was originally by Seals & Croft, but I prefer this version...

A Month Of... Weather...

Er... yesterday's post should really have been today's, and today's should have been yesterday's...

Why? Because today's is "Smokestack Lightning" by Howlin' Wolf - and everyone knows the thunder comes AFTER the lightning, not before...

A Month Of... Weather...

Hi... had a quick look at my list of songs (which means it's now Monday), and back on catch-up...

Today's offering is "Something In The Air" by Thunderclap Newman...

Normal Service Will Be Resumed...

... after I get back to the computer that contains my spreadsheet of theme songs (remember? it's really Sunday morning?) coz I just can't remember any more Weather songs that I had planned...
