No, i don't mean holiday music.

What music that sees relatively little play time during the normal months comes back out when it's cold, snowy, and dreary, in your case?


Me, i tend to move away from the heavier stuff that i tend to listen to, and go to British bands.

HEAVY rotation with:

Coldplay (especially the stuff pre - X&Y)
Radiohead
Travis
Feeder

Hrmmm... i guess the depressing stuff. :p I just like having a drink, looking out my window at night watching the snow if it's out there, and listening to this. [/emo]

What's about you?
I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

    I play more melancholy celtic stuff like Enya or Loreena McKennit. Enigma gets more play. This year Sting has a new one but it's not for everyone "If On A Winter's Night". And alwys Eva Cassidy.

    I'm getting into Rachmaninoff this Winter. Piano concerto 2 & 3 and Symphony 2. Some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Perfect for a cold day sitting in front of the wood stove burning.
