23 Songs About October

My list of songs with September in the title was very popular, so it only made sense to check out songs about October! It’s certainly a very different kind of month: only a handful of these songs are well known such as the classics from U2, Amy Winehouse and Screaming Jets (well, at least to Australian readers!), but as I went digging I found a lot of really great tracks – and the vast majority are from artists I wasn’t fully familiar with. It does seem that it’s a month that inspires quite a lot of reflective tracks – which I guess makes sense from a northern hemisphere perspective as they are heading into winter. See what you think – it’s well worth listening to a bunch of these – and it there are others that I’ve missed please don’t hesitate to let me know!
