Jim Morrison wonders if he’s only being used as a winter blanket.
In the cold, cold night – The White Stripes

Baby it’s Cold Outside – Bing Crosby and Doris Day
A snowy, squalling night is a decent excuse for persuasion to stay indoors.
Shelter from the Storm – Bob Dylan
Dylan sings on the community that can come from wintering together.
Song for a Winter’s Night – Gordon Lightfoot
Lightfoot’s longing not to be alone on a cold winter’s night, but doesn’t seem willing to brave the elements.
Your Rocky Spine – Great Lake Swimmers
A love song to the Canadian landscape: listen to the snow — it might carry a message for you.
