If you program or play music on the radio, how do you acknowledge rain or other hazardous weather? One school of thought says to confront it directly with "In The Rain" by The Dramatics or "I Can't Stand The Rain" by Ann Peebles. After driving through a seeming monsoon this morning, however, I thought, "Maybe it's better to take a more positive approach and play a Beatles favorite, 'Here Comes The Sun,' instead."
During a recent icy, bitterly cold day, I heard a Classical announcer take the power-of-positive-thinking approach by playing the Spring concerto from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons." I appreciated being reminded that the icy, frosty weather was just temporary, and I imagine other listeners did, as well.
