Winter Romance

I love songs about winter romance. I grew up in Michigan, and I now live in southern California so I know only too well how different life is when there's snow on the ground. It can be very romantic to wake up to new fallen snow on the ground. The long rays of a winter sun makes the snow glisten and sparkle like diamonds. At night, falling snow makes the world seem quiet and still, enveloping you in a world of white. It's magical. And just the memory of snow on green pine boughs is enough to make me squeal.

It's no wonder there's just one song about walking in a 'Winter Wonderland.' There are other songs that make me feel even more romantic about winter.

Gordon Lightfoot's "Song for a Winter's Night" is at the top of my list.




Dean Martin is next I love a crooner. Especially when he's singing about winter romance.




Colbie Callait perfectly captures the spirt of a winter romance in Mistletoe.




John Denver captures my feelings about winter in "Alpenglow."




Are you in the mood for winter romance now? It's time to snuggle up in front of the fire, pour a glass of wine and relax with a good book.
