"Under Ice" by Kate Bush

Updated March 19th, 2012:

I decided that although I love "It's Now Winter's Day" by Tommy Roe, it is not a song that I would play over and over.  In other words it is not what I would rate as a "10", it is a "9".   Fortunately, I played this Kate Bush song in my show on KCQN Utah a couple of weeks ago, and it fits perfectly in with the "Icy" songs I was posting around the end of November last year.  It is also definitely one of my favorite songs.  There are many videos using this song on YouTube.  I picked a few that were interesting.  Do a search on YouTube for a plethora of others.

"It's Now Winter's Day" by Tommy Roe

Boggles my mind that it has been almost 45 years since this record hit the charts...

"Ice" by Sarah McLachlan

Okay, this isn't totally a Winter song, but it is kinda Icy.

"Icy Cold as Winter" by Swing Out Sister

I was sick last night and was too tired to post a song, so this is my song for Monday. November 28, 2011.  I've decided to try to do a week of Winter/Cold/Icy songs (assuming I can think of that many).  Starting off with yet another great song from Swing Out Sister:

"World" by New Order

Rachel update 25-Mar-2017: for the second time this morning I've been greeted with this: "This video contains content from WMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds. | Sorry about that." when I clicked on a link.

Sigh!

So here is a video officially posted by Rhino that will hopefully work  :)

I was watching this video again (I really like the video for this song) and noticed that the woman that turns and enters the hotel is wearing a hat similar to my "go to" hat.  SueZQ calls it my "ladies who wear hats" hat.

Original post:

I like many of the older New Order tracks, but for some reason I fell in love with the entire "Republic" album.  Listening to these tracks tonight I am reminded that it is a masterpiece.  I love every song on this album, but if I have to pick one I guess it would be "World":

I turn sideways to the sun
And keep my thoughts from everyone
It's a Jungle, I'm a freak
Hear me talk but never speak

"Burning Bridges" by Naked Eyes

I've decided to have a Twin Spin of Naked Eyes, since I had so much trouble deciding which song last night.

"Low Life" by Naked Eyes

I didn't realize how good Naked Eyes were in the 80's, it wasn't until the 90's when I discovered how great they were.

"Hello It's Me" by Nazz

Some people may not know it, but this is the original version of this song by Todd Rundgren's band Nazz, from around 1968.  I've always like this version better than the uptempo remake.  This song still reminds me of high school and one of my girlfriends.  The two versions sound basically the same, the description and comments are different.
