There are a lot of great songs that touch on the weather, but which ones are the best? For this week's episode, we had some fun and voted on our 10 favorite weather-related songs of all time.
Since this is a podcast about weather and climate, we tried to stick to songs that actually touched on weather as opposed to love songs that used weather as a metaphor. (Sorry "Purple Rain," "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" and "Thunder Road," among others.)
Joining the program this week is Terry Lipshetz, Across the Sky's behind-the-scenes producer, host and producer of the Hot off the Wire podcast and periodic host of the Behind the Headlines podcast. Lipshetz is a record collector and active on social media, where he curates his @vinyl_terry and @brucespringsteencollection Instagram accounts.
