One sign of winter: the music I keep downloading is either a) depressing folk music or b) tropical. Such as: "No Other Name," and "If I Had Wings," PPM; "Lightning Bar Blues," Arlo Guthrie; "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride," and "Hele Mele No Lilo," from Lilo and Stitch. And then there is "Jamaican Farewell," which manages to be both at once.

that's weird. I cannot handle tropical music during winter. Well... like a real winter. I can handle it just fine here in Arizona and same thing in Texas but when I'm up in Ohio freezing my prodigous rump off, I can only listen to punk, hard rock, rockabilly and maybe jazz or blues if I'm inside and warm. Really, when I lived in Chicago (for all those long long years) my music tastes were totally seasonal. Spring was classical until Blues fest started the summer of blues and jazz and tropical rompery then something depressing for fall (which i hate worse than winter) and then the colder it got the more aggresive my music got. Repeat.

That didn't happen in texas where the only seasons really are Hot, Almost hot, and It Could Be Warmer.
