It's too hot! Santa, I wish for snow!
Here in the western United States, we're having a heat wave. It has been more than 80 degrees every day for more than one week now. This is probably laughable to everyone closer to the equator than the 49th parallel N, but here is it devastating!
So here are some songs to help cool off. They invoke memories of frosted windowpanes, sledding, and a time when a mug of hot cocoa actually sounded like a good idea. (Oh, and know that I am sooooo holding back on the Sufjan here. Dude, Songs for Christmas came out 8 months ago and I am *still* rocking all 42 festive tracks.)
- Sufjan Stevens - Christmas in July.mp3 (from Songs for Christmas)
- Sufjan Stevens - That Was the Worst Christmas Ever!.mp3 (from Songs for Christmas)
- Arcade Fire - Jingle Bell Rock.mp3 (from the Arcade Fire Christmas EP)
- Vince Guaraldi Trio - Christmastime is Here.mp3 (from A Charlie Brown Christmas)
- The Blind Boys Of Alabama - Last Month Of The Year.mp3 (from Go Tell It on the Mountain)
- Boston Pops Orchestra - Sleigh Ride.mp3 (from Holiday Pops)
- Tori Amos - Winter (live).mp3 (from Glory of the 80's single)
