Songs About The Wind, Vol. 1

Of all the themes I've featured in my 6+ years as a music blogger, I've never done this one. Which is surprising, considering I live in an incredibly hurricane-prone part of the country and strong winds are annually on my mind (as they are currently, for obvious reasons). So when I finally got around to it, I realized there were tons of good songs that qualified. So this will be part 1 of (at least) 2. Assuming you (and I) don't blow away in this storm, I'm sure you will...enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  Patrick Swayze ft. Wendy Fraser  ~  "She's Like The Wind"




2)  Vanessa Williams  ~  "Colors Of The Wind"




3)  Kansas  ~  "Dust In The Wind"

9)  Christopher Cross  ~  "Ride Like The Wind"




10)  Becky Hill  ~  "Caution To The Wind"




11)  Bob Dylan  ~  "Idiot Wind"  (You can, in fact, have too much Bob Dylan in one day. But two songs is probably not going to kill you.)




12)  Jefferson Starship  ~  "Winds Of Change"




13)  Rod Stewart & Ron Wood  ~  "Mandolin Wind"




14)  Lee Ann Womack  ~  "Don't Listen To The Wind"

23)  Kansas  ~  "People Of The South Wind"  (Maybe you can have too many Kansas songs in one day, I dunno. But surely two is not too many.)




24)  Gogi Grant  ~  "The Wayward Wind"




25)  Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band  ~  "Against The Wind"
