This song feels like it should be blaring through a thunderstorm as the drums intensify and unite with the constant stroke of the guitar. The room is lit up with candles, and “Gold Dust Woman” starts to play. Picture this: rain pelting the windows, thunder rolling in and the occasional lighting strike illuminating the sky. Stevie Nicks’ voice sounds mystical in this 1977 masterpiece. Knowing Ohio weather, it will feel right to be singing along and wishing for sunnier days as we get deeper into autumn. Released in 1966, the lyrics create a dreary scene, as the first verse starts with “All the leaves are brown / And the sky is gray.” Listeners get the idea the band misses the warmth of the sun and is ready for the cold weather to leave.

This is personally one of my favorite fall tunes because the flute and guitar come together, creating a beautiful melody that makes you want to twirl around.

This folk song was meant for a stroll through College Green as the leaves are changing and colors cover the ground.
