I've been thinking about a "rainy day playlist."
I've got a few songs that I'd like to put on it, but I'm not sure which songs I really want or if there's some that I'd like, so I'm taking suggestions. You can get the idea of the feel I'm going for by reading what I have listed:
I know it is kind of cheesy, but, yes, the word "rain" is in each of the songs at least once.
If you're wondering, I don't have any order for the songs yet (so, I'll take any suggestions) and I also don't have any small little sound bytes to put between the songs to make them flow into one another if I'd like to make something like a mix cd mix tape.
