Comment:

Well, this is my first (and probably last) weather themed mix...basically, it's all about friggin hurricane Isabel, which was supposed to get us a bunch of rain and wind and get us out of school...but it went west. So while I was getting all psyched making this mix, hurricane Isabel made a sharp left turn and I'll never get to see it. Oh well, got all the songs on here, 'bout rain, storms, wind, and destruction (tear the roof off the sucker, pick up the pieces). Yes I am aware Hurricane by Bob Dylan is not about weather. Leave any suggestions for songs, just in case there's another hurricane soon!

"damn, sam, I love a woman that rains" ryan adams. The woman in this case being isabel.

I ran into the same problem with Dylan on my Isabel mix. I ended up cutting it, though. This, however, is a right nice little piece you've put together man. Cheers.

My suggestions:

"Thunder Road" - Bruce Springseen

"Fool In The Rain" - Led Zeppelin

"Rainy Day" - Jimi Hendrix

Good mix and The Hurricane wasn't named Hurricane cos he punched like a nice sunny day...so it makes a nice touch. Good job.

natural disasters always make great themes.another good stormy-titled song is neil young's "like a hurricane". It doesn't really capture the whole hurricane vibe but the word is in the title and its good.
