Drops of Jupiter – Train
“Since the return from her stay on the moon, she listens like spring and she talks like June.”

August

December
Lego House – Ed Sheeran
“And it’s dark in a cold December, but I got you to keep me warm.”
December. The month where everything is dark and cold - but happy because it is the month of the Holiday season. Lego House. One of the warmest songs I have ever heard. Let’s just say that Lego House fulfills the desire that December brings – being wrapped up in feelings of warmth and happiness, just like a blanket.
