The ultimate Spotify playlist to get you through the Beast from the East

1 - Don't forget your shovel - Christy Moore

A true classic. Where would we be in the snow without a shovel 

2 - Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

Two for the price of one. We had to get Snow Patrol in and you can just lie there and forget the world.

3 - Cold as Ice - Foreigner

A 70s classic that should set the tone for the week 

4 - Saxon - Hell Freezes Over

If nothing else playing the air guitar should help keep you warm. 

5 - The Drifters - Under the Boardwalk

Probably the last place you'd want to be is under the boardwalk but we had to get The 'Drift'ers in there somewhere. (Did you see what we did there) 

MORE TO SEE: Track Storm Emma and The Beast from the East LIVE as they both approach Ireland

6 - The Blizzards - Drop Down the Anchor

Some unfortunate motorists might well have to drop down the anchor if they get stuck in the snow..... and we absolutely had to put in The Blizzards 

7 - Eiffel 65 - I'm Blue

If you stay outside too long this week, you could easily turn a nice shade of blue. There'll be Smurfs everywhere....

8 - Beastie Boys - Brass Monkey

Do we have to explain this one???? 

9 - A Hazy Shade of Winter - The Bangles

It's going to be more than a hazy shade by all accounts. It's going to be a white out if the forecasters are to be believed. (We could have picked Simon and Garfunkel but we think this version is better.... complaints on a postcard to....)

10 - It's the end of the world - REM

If it gets really, really, really bad, we can all play out with this one.
