A most excellent song Gotta love Led Zep.

Although not having to do with the Northern air, I started a topic similiar to this, called "The Lord of the Rings and the Fall-Winter Seasons", as dringil mentioned the feeling is especially strong in the autumnal seasons-

I agree. It might be because I went to beautiful England last year, but even before that I deem I always felt this Northern air blowing through the pages of Middle-earth.
