Even if I am not mentally ready for winter yet, I woke up this morning to a rather pretty sight.
This made me think… Are there any good songs about snow and winter, which are explicitly not Christmas songs?
I mean, the song below is fabulous, but what other song treasures are out there?
Lots of songs about ‘snow’; not the type that falls on the ground though…
My thoughts exactly… 
Two of my all time favourites for this subject:
And a great compilation from a sadly missed singer.
A little tale about an Eskimo boy’s struggle with a fur trapper and a few other peculiar events:
I wish someone had told me before… what do I do now? 
Seriously though, Zappa was a genius, what a story…
@DarrellW Thanks for sharing th beautiful first video and Karen Carpenter’s magnificent singing. Aah … I hear Christmas in both of those songs…
Sweet that first snow ,
I’ve been waiting for it here too … for a few years 
…the last time was February 2021 before it stayed down for more than 1 hour…
So some old fotos and waiting for the new stuff
Here is a song about snow by Frankl Zappa and a golden tip 
Jozef posted that a while back 
That tumb is black and I don’t have time to listen… oh well, the forum is full of duplicates and even with a video even closer together 
… I’ll pay more attention next time… busy busy busy
It’s a great song though. And never can be reminded enough not to eat the yellow stuff 
Hazy shade of winter by the bangles
Bob Dylan - Winterlude
Genesis, “Snowbound”
Neil Young, “Winterlong”
The Walkmen - While I Shovel The Snow
Cow boy Junkies - Fuck, I Hate the Cold
Haha, don’t worry about it, it’s a great song to be reminded about!
Yeah, Lindsey is something special and she’s done some amazing collaborations with other artists!
I will check since the video was so poetic 
@MacOneill Thanks for the long list. And only one of these songs featuring jingly jangly bells 
ah ? one ? they were not supposed to be christmas related ^^"
for the Blimers
Not a song about snow per se, but it features in one of my favourite lyrics
Because the pillow that I dream on,
Is the threshold of a kingdom
Is the threshold of a world
Where I’m with you
Its a dark and snowy secret
And it has to do with heaven
And what looks like sleep
Is really hot pursuit

This one by Neil Young. The video doesn’t have much snow but the lyric contains ‘snow’ and ‘winter’. 
Funny you starting this thread with a Nick Cave song, Nicole - I just went to see him on Thursday (but he didn’t play this one 
).
With the first snow of the year (if we get any), we are sure to hear this one on the radio:
