In some places snow is often regarded as a nuisance around here it is a gentle thing, reminds of a Genesis song:
"Within the valley of shadowless death
They pray for thunderclouds and rain
But to the multitude who stand in the rain
Heaven is where the sun shines" 
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I could easily say that it's the 50 Words (for many reasons; even for having Stephen Fry in it), but Snowflake and Tahoe waft me senselessly. I may listen to it again and decide.

It is so completely effective, the whole track.  Few albums pull you to the theme as quickly and successfully.

The line "the world is so loud", on a snow day it seems eerily quiet when you go outside.  We have ice storms about as often.  You hear the crackling of limbs breaking off trees.

Damn, you reminded me I haven't played that one enough.  Probably because we still haven't had a snow day yet in my neck of the woods.  For now the opening track. Big smile
