I never really focused on the meaning of the Scorpion's song. Who would have imagined that hurricanes inspired so many singers to write songs about them! Thanks for taking the time to post the parts of the songs that mention hurricanes. I like your ideas for a unique hub.įlourishAnyway (author) from USA on June 29, 2020:Īdrienne - Most folks probably head bobbed their way through that song and didn't pay attention to the lyrics, but they're quite eye-opening! Thanks for reading along. Where I am nothing of that violent weather. These songs relate to many places of hurricanes. I'm glad you included Lena Horne's Stormy Weather.ĭevika Primić from Dubrovnik, Croatia on June 29, 2020: I guess that is because they are so upsetting-just like love.

We don't get tropical storms here in the Pacific NW but still have had our fair share of windstorms (Google the Columbus Day storm of '62 which I still remember after all these years). At least, they come with some warning (not like earthquakes which we are prone to here). Good morning Flourish, the thought of a hurricane is terrifying. Linda Lum from Washington State, USA on June 29, 2020: Weather makes a good metaphore for feelings. Thanks for sharing this wonderful list.Ī great mix of old and new songs. I had no idea there were so many songs about hurricanes. Rajan Singh Jolly from From Mumbai, presently in Jalandhar, INDIA. But I guess it stands to reason that such a violent force of nature is bound to provoke songs about it. I didn't realise that there were so many songs about hurricanes. I may have missed it here but Etta James' Stormy Weather is a good tune. This would have been a great playlist for those gatherings. Fondly remember many hurricane parties when we had no place else to go. We used to live in a hurricane zone in the Keys, Miami and Tampa. Peg Cole from North Dallas, Texas on June 29, 2020: As I'm commenting, we've got some rainy stormy stuff rolling in. Hope the weather is beautiful and peaceful where you are.

Heidi Thorne from Chicago Area on June 30, 2020: Hope you are doing well.ĭevika - It's a good thing you don't have them in Croatia. Linda - Weather-related events make you feel so out of control/at the mercy of other factors and it can be frightening, whatever the cause. Thanks for visiting.īob - Thanks for the kind words. We tend to wax poetic about what we love or hate. Yes, metaphorical hurricanes can be just as deadly, but they come and we'd better prepare as much as we can. I like the rain, but like some of your singers, only in good measure. Thanks for stopping by.ĭora Weithers from The Caribbean on July 01, 2020: I hope hurricane season gives us a break this year.ĭora - I thought of you with this one! Stay safe this hurricane season.
