This Year 365 songs: January 5th & 6th
Feb. 6th, 2026 09:28 am Yesterday's song was "The Recognition Scene" and today's is "Third Snow Song"
The first song is titled after the scene in a tragedy where the protagonist sees that they are stuck in a tragedy. The tone of the song certainly works with that reference. The second song is about Darnielle experiencing actual* cold weather as someone who had grown up chiefly in warmer, sunnier parts of California.
Both songs are nice, but I don't have much to say about either.
*Those of us familiar with winter in places other than Portland, Oregon, may question whether this really constituted "actual cold weather"
