Today is the winter solstice, which is the shortest day, and the longest night, of the year.

While some take this time to enjoy the darkness and contemplate their existence, others hide away until this (quite literally) dark day is over. Either way, starting tomorrow, we should see a little bit more light in our days.

In the meantime, let's all get through this dark day together with great songs that are short in length.

And thanks to Ashley for the suggestion.
