Cool Songs About Skiing

Post by skiersleft »

Anyone know any cool recorded songs about skiing? I like "Ski Bum" and "Heaven's Pie" by Darin Talbot.

you should try to get your hands on Bill Briggs album... i have a copy but it is copyrighted material.

"bend in his knees"

"pounds of rucksack"

"two boards upon cold powder snow"

my god... really really classic stuff from the mouth (and banjo) of a legend.

i've got the song book which is not protected since most are old classics. i'll try to get some scans up soon.

Late summer we went to the free summer concert series at Killington. It was a perfect day with a great band by the name of barefoot truth. They played a song about skiing called "Dancing in the trees". After several 2 dollar magic hat number 9's I was loving it and dreaming about the season to come. Here are some lyrics from the song

"So you breathe a sigh of relief
Cause now is the time to fly
Will you fix your eyes on that sea of powder?
And you kiss the clouds goodbye
I wanna make this run last forever
I could'nt make this run any better
Don't wanna hear about any changes in the weather
Our waves are right, they're breakin' left and right
Now free from gravity, gets you light as a feather"

Here is them performing the song at a different concert.

Barefoot Truth puts on such a great show. Been listening to them for a couple years now, and seen them 3 times.
Always loved these lyrics from. Changes in the Weather:
"I feel it in the air, from the highest mountain top
just wanna hold that breath forever
I'm dancing in the clouds with my feet still on the ground
Can't say a dream could get much better."
~Crock

There are things worse than death,

and I can do all of them.
