It's a bit early in the cycle of seasons to post this, but Sandi and I love this song, especially as sung by Bobby Womack, and first heard on the the current Saab TV advert for a convertable with a ski rack. Most people will know the original version by the Mama's and Papa's - a very hippy version. Bobby Womack's version is much more soulful :-)

California Dreaming

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day

I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A
California Dreamin'
On such a winter's day

Stepped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
And I began to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California Dreamin'
On such a winter's day

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On such a winter's day

If I didn't tell her
I could leave today
California Dreamin'
On a winter's day
