Songs that remind me of winter. Some of them are very literal, some are songs that I'd first heard in the winter and that I can remember listening to while walking in the snow, and others are songs that just sound wintery because of bells or something?

Ah, I love this. I was looking for something like this because I live in the goddamn mountains and winter is so miserable, though there certainly are some sweet songs about it.
