January: Songs about Winter

In this overly-snowy and frigid New York winter, I found it only fitting to devote this month's mixtape to songs about winter. Some explore the cold season lyrically; others try to evoke the feeling of snow, fogged windows, warm beverages, and icy gusts compositionally. Enjoy.
