music and the seasons

as i was driving to work today...i was trying to find a cd that sounded good...something to fit the cold and i thought how funny it is that certain music sound better at certain times of the year...so i'm going to give you examples of what i mean..

Autumn (since it is upon us) Jeff Buckley Sigur Ros
Winter Elliott Smith Granddaddy
Spring XTC They might be giants

Summer Cake Gomez


This doesn't mean that i only listen to these people at these times of the year but it just sounds better to me then...i decided to spare you the entire list i made...i was at work and put all the music i could possibly think of in a catergory...only one, i felt, could make it in all of these categories and i think that just because i like radiohead so much...also because their cds are so different that i believe that there is a cd for each season...

you are right i have put too much thought into this.... : )

i will explain this picture to you in a blog later tonight : )

edit...10:53 pm

i've decided that sufjan stevens and beck also have certian albums that fit different seasons for me...take beck...i was listening to sea change today and it sounded great...but i just don't think it would sound as good if it were a bright sunny hot day...but maybe i'm wrong...

This is most definitely Sigur Ros weather. A good album for this time of year is "Kid A." Especially if it's a cloudy or foggy night. Ahh,...that is THE BEST!!

Also, for sunny autumn mornings, pull out some Simon & Garfunkel or Disc 2 of "Being There" from Wilco.

The best time to listen to Grandaddy is late March when it's just getting warm and it is very, very windy.
