King Crimson - I Talk To The Wind This is a song even my wife recognizes. I gave her the album as a birthday gift while we were still dating. She listened to it then, but was not into prog at all. Later she returned it to me and went back to listening to the Bee Gees. I guess it's not for chicks.

Women, women, women ;D , still my wife likes listening some of our music when I play it on my car player. . Jim, Bee Gees had two eras, obviously I'd indeed rather the late 60's one, that wasn't so bad in any way. ;D Philamore Lincoln was a psychodelic rock band which captivated me from the first listen a year ago. Their windy song calls The north wind blew south: Have all a good weekend, if it happens don't overlook thinking of a windy song ;D

"Wild Is the Wind" is a song written by Dimitri Tiomkin and Ned Washington. The track was originally recorded by Johnny Mathis for the 1957 film Wild Is the Wind. The song was very popular and was one of five songs nominated for an Academy Award; it was sung by Johnny Mathis at the March 1958 Oscar presentations. It was later covered by Nina Simone on the album Wild Is The Wind (1966). David Bowie recorded a version of it in 1976 for his album Station to Station. Bowie was an admirer of Simone's style, and after meeting her in Los Angeles was inspired to record the song for his album. Nina Simone - Born Feb. 21, 1933 Tryon, North Carolina - Hey that's where I live!Great song Pat. ;D David Bowie made it better. ;D Thanks Jim for the great story about this excellent song. Nina Simone was a top-notch artist in the musical history. Glad to know she was from the same area than you. A big radio hit about wind stuff by Scorpions Tullians of this planet, don't give up draggin on your caves, there are too many left to display on this windy yard. ;D

My favorite all time Genesis' album and song of non-Peter Gabriel era (And Then There Were Three - Burnin' Rope) mentions, on a single paragraph, something related to a windy point: The warming sun, the cooling rain, The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze, The lightning bolt that frees the sky for you Yet only eagles seem to pass on through. The words of love, the cries of hate, And the man in the moon who seduced you Then finally loosed you. I always cry with this song, lovely tune.

hey what about this famous line... windy bus stop click shop window heelThat's awesome, Derek. Word windy is mentioned clearly therefore is suitable with the main subject. Thanks for exposing this Tull's gem. Tull has some songs mentioning the windy matter. One with a bit complex link to winds is "The Whisler" because in fact this definition apparently hasn't to with winds too much , however I've found in my English Theasaurus dictionary a different meaning of The Whistler that can interpret itself a slightly link to winds: archaic turn a trained hawk loose by casting it off with the wind.Conclude yourself

An outstanding Yes' song remarkin' wind on its lyrics - "Heart Of The Sunrise" :
Love comes to you and you follow Lose one on to the Heart of the Sunrise SHARP-DISTANCE How can the wind with its arms all around me
Lost on a wave and then after Dream on on to the Heart of the Sunrise SHARP-DISANCE How can the wind with so many around me lost in the city

Of course there is the Genesis album, Wind and Wuthering, but no song on there about wind.

Thanks John, Jeff & egrorian for joining us on this windy journey. What a superb Santanas' song relatin' to the main subject of the thread, you've have for good chosen, John. Many thanks for this great windy musical find. Cat Stevens' beatiful song was on my list for posting later, in any event GOOD PLAYED with this huge windy find, egrorian. Thanks again for joinin' the game and nice to have met you on this special Tull board. Jeff, such a good proposal with this album with a windy title you've made. About the absence of winds references on this, I thought the same as you did, but sorry you haven't explored throughout the lyrics of that wonderful Genesis' album. If you read now better the lyrics of "Your Own Special Way" tune, you'll find a windy reference on this verse: Whose seen the wind not you or I, But when the ship moves she's passing by. Between you and me I really don't think, She knows where she's going at all.And also there's a slightly reference to winds on the last verse of the best song of this album for me, "One for the Vine", (though i'm not too certain the word "air" on that sentence has to do with a windy fact) : Then, on a distant slope, He observed one without hope Flee back up the mountainside. He thought he recognised him by his walk, And by the way he fell, And by the way he Stood up, and vanished into air.Derek, another brillian find from you, now with the Midge Ure's original outfit, Ultravox, you've inspired by now, I liked a lot the song. thanks

One of my all time favorites--The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald many mentions of wind..gale and hurricane Great song Charlie! I was jammin' when this came out too. "The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down of the big lake they call "Gitche Gumee." "Superior," they said, "never gives up her dead when the gales of November come early!"

One of my all time favorites--The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald many mentions of wind..gale and hurricane Charlie, what a sensational windy Gordon's tune musical proposal you have granted us.! One of the best ones I've so far listened here. Bob Dylan once called him the greatest songwriter of all times, "honored words", I agree. Thanks for your effort. . Here I go again with Jimy - Little Wing (a clearly windy reference on just one sentence) Well, she's walking through the clouds, With a circus mind that's running wild, Butterflies and Zebras, And Moonbeams and fairy tales. That's all she ever thinks about. Riding with the wind.Come on folks, there are a lot of windy mentions inside your old vinyls lyrics covers. Doing that other many forgotten surprises by you will come to pass, I can confirm you. ;D Have all a good week

Morthoron, grand contributions, thanks for joining us on this windy trip. I knew sooner or later our best musical list maker would contribute with some good stuff, though two of them were already posted by other two Tullianers fellows ;D, it doesn't matter for me since they are as good as for listening them again. What I liked the most has been Floyd's even though Donovan's is superb as well. Cheers! Charlie, glad you are relishin' the thought, I knew it could be interesting for reading back those awesome lirycs of our beloved bands and remarkable songwriters. Fantastic find your Tull's tune, from an album I worship, mentioning winds on it. Thanks again Anew two Jethro's songs on the same live tube mentioning windy points on two verses, Seal Driver from the Broadsword and The Beast album : I'm no great looker, I'm no fast shakes. I'll give you a steady push on a six knot simmering high tide. I can hold us down keep our head to the wind, Or let us roll on the broadside, cold spray flying in, And we'll ride on the swell and our hearts are alive. Let me make you my seal driver. Could you fancy me as a pirate bold, Or a longship Viking warrior with the old gods on his side? Well I'm an inshore man and I'm nobody's hero, But I'll make you tight for a windy night and a dark ride. Let me take you in hand and bring you alive. Going to make you my seal driver. AWESOME MARTIN'S SOLO GUITAR ON SEAL DRIVER. IT ROCKS!! And next one with just a windy reference on our ever significant tune "Songs From The Wood" from the same album : greetings well met fellow, hail! i am the wind to fill your sail. i am the cross to take your nail: a singer of these ageless times, with kitchen prose and gutter rhymes. songs from the wood make you feel much better. Thanks both of you. Come on!, read and chase that windy reference, them are there waiting for shiverin' us.

Well done Charlie, you are enjoying the windy pun game J. Tull's First Snow In Brooklyn has two windy references: Thin wind stings my face: pull collar up. I could murder coffee in a grande cup. No welcome deli; there’s no Starbucks here. A dime for a quick phone call could cost me dear. and Some things are best forgotten: some are better half-remembered. I just thought that I might be there on your, on your Christmas night. And the first snow on Brooklyn makes a lonely road to travel – cold crunch steps that echo as the blizzard bites. What a cold is being here today!!

Black Satin Dancer thin wind whispering on broken mandolin
Requiem
Well I saw a bird today-flying from a bush and the wind blew it away
