My Top 50 Weather Channel Songs - What Are Yours?

Back in 2012, when The Weather Channel celebrated its 30th anniversary, I posted two lists of my favorite 25 songs (though I guess it should have been 30) that they have featured over the years. One containing non-Christmas songs and another containing only Christmas songs. I thought it would be interesting to post those lists again, but this time ask for your favorites.

So in the comment section below, please let me know what your favorite Christmas and non-Christmas Weather Channel songs are from its first 30 years (ie. 1982 to 2012). If you need some help, you can listen to (most) of my list below or you can check out the playlists here that cover 1986-2002.

If you'd like to mention more than one from each category, that's fine, but please mention which two are your absolute favorite. Two weeks from the date of this post, I'll publish the results for all to see!
