Shovel Song

It’s snowing again, for the third Monday in a row. Many lists of “Snow” songs exist in the world. Here’s the other image of the day. For a while, it looked like this list would be overwhelmed with metal songs about digging shallow graves, but happily the shovel-pop genre turns out to be broader than that.

“I Gently Shovel Snow,” The Walkmen
“Shovel,” Aesop Rock
“Heel on the Shovel,” 16 Horsepower
“The Days of Sand and Shovels,” Bobby Vinton.
