Anyone remember this? http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/1601130-snowed-in-dis-presents-its-playlist-for-a-day-of-the-white-stuff

Just turned it into a Spotify playlist http://bit.ly/snowify

What songs in the past few years fit the weather and 'chaos' of today?

'Snow' by Freddy Fresh

is missing from these lists. Taken from his Peel-endorsed album 'Have Record, Will Travel'.

oh look it's snowing

the roads are slowing
cold, wet feet
are not so neat
it's such a pain
more so than rain
even worse when it's icy
but grit prevents that nicely
what if i slip over
i might break my shoulder
it never seems to end
driving me round the bend
children make snowmen
they can all piss off

It seemed pretty obvious to me, but

Why hasn't anyone mentioned Untitled #1 (Vaka) by Sigur Ros? Is that one TOO obvious, what with the nuclear winter quality of the video?

It snowed here a couple days before New Years, and I thought Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) was pretty good for it, thematically. Maybe it's because of the first line in the song, and how triumphant it feels whilst staring winter in the face by biking three miles to work in the flurry. Or maybe it's because I always look for applicable reasons to break out Funeral...

- I adore Feel Good Lost. I don't think a mainly instrumental album has captured me as much as that has done.

Bon Iver?

And strangely I find Feel Good Lost- Broken Social Scene, and the Where The Wild Things Are OST quite fitting. And anything by Mount Eerie. Oh, and lightness by peter and the wolf. They're all albums, not songs, but my hands were too cold to change songs often on my ipod..
Shame the snows melting now here for me, but theres meant to be more soon?

Fever Ray

Keep the streets empty for me. Not exactly a snow fest and probably should be filed under 'songs with the word snow in', but snow there is.
