8 Alternative Christmas Songs For Alternative Folk
4. Joni Mitchell - River

That being said, some of us need such wonderful sounds and suggestive lyrics to encourage the occasionally necessary sob, and if you do just so happen to be one of those many souls soldiering on through these winter months, please know that you're not alone, and music can often allow us to be truly honest with ourselves and offer a much-needed relief from a struggle that needn't be so tough.
Be excellent to yourself. It's what Joni would want!
