The power the weather can have over our moods is uncanny. When the sun is shining, I feel more motivated and generally more positive. I like the occasional rainy or gloomy day, but after a while, I feel more down than usual, missing my natural supply of Vitamin D .

The weather also impacts the music that I want to listen to. When it’s dreary out, listening to happy songs can be a pick me up, but at the same time they feel out of place. So on rainy days, I like to drown myself in moody, sad, or lovelorn tracks because it fits the atmosphere, and it helps me gets in touch with my emotions. Ironically, heartbreaking, lonely, or remorseful songs can be the most beautiful. Down below are 10 tracks that are perfect for walks or car rides through the rain. They’ll probably put you in your feels, but that’s okay. The fact that we have the capacity to feel even the worst emotions is a great thing.
