Heh. I just posted in the thread about definitive versions of Christmas songs:

That’d be your third category, seasonal songs, into which I’d place all songs that are about winter, snow, etc. There’s no inherent reason these songs couldn’t be played throughout January or February, except maybe that everyone’s sick and tired of winter by then. This category includes Jingle Bells, Winter Wonderland, Frosty the Snowman, Let It Snow, Baby It’s Cold Outside, Sleigh Ride…
