So my only resolution that I thought I'd attempt this coming
year was to post something on the SMM Blog everyday…well as you can see today
is the 2nd and there was nothing posted yesterday, I hope this is no
indication of what's ahead.
In the land where
Sonic More Music was conceived and born we have snow, last night we got some
more; so it got me thinking as I was driving along trying not to slide into the
guy in front of about music videos that reminded me of winter. I know there's
plenty of Christmas inspired videos but I'm talking of vids with snow in them
that while you're watching them they make you feel cold; they bring back
memories of skating on outdoor rinks and losing your boot in the deep snow. Here
are two videos that too me remind me of winter in Canada.
The first video is Tom Sawyer by Rush. It was shot at Le
Studio in the town of Morin Heights, Quebec. I remember watching this on Much
Music in the middle of July and being transported back to the middle of winter
with the shots of the playing in front of the huge windows of snow.

The second video is the cover of "Lovers in a Dangerous
Time" by the Barenaked Ladies. The dusting of snow on the pavement, the
cold breath coming from Steven Page as he sings in the back of the pickup truck
driving around Agincourt, Dave Bidini and crew yelling Car!!!...it's just got
that cold January feel to it.
