With Hurricane Irene headed our way and scheduled to bring lots of rain and wind our way this weekend, we want to make sure we keep our readers in good spirits. What better way to do that (outside of our extensive coverage) than by making a playlist.
We asked for your suggestions for your Hurricane Irene playlist and you answered. Thanks to @TheBeltTeam and @TBturtles for their suggestions via Twitter. Click the song title to listen to the songs on YouTube.
- "Come On Eileen" by Dexy Midnight Runners (substitute Eileen with Irene and this is a popular choice for any hurricane playlist)

I Wish It Would Rain by Phil Collins Rock You Like a Hurricane by The Scorpions Let It Rain by Eric Clapton

Here's another: Purple Rain by Prince
I've been thinking about Warren Zevon and "The Wind" -- nothing weather related on that album, so I'll suggest his "Hasten Down the Wind" instead.
