I feel like having a huge rant about what is happening in the world right now and putting everything going around my head into an article.

However, would that do any of us any good especially me? I still might put pen to paper when I have sorted out what I want to say but let us park that for a moment.

Although the world seems a dark place at the moment at least here in the Northern Hemisphere we are slowly moving into the light and weatherwise Spring beckons.

Consequently, as we have suffered the damp and dark for the last few months with colds and coughs amok especially myself being very chesty I thought it would be a bit of fun to think of songs with a Doctor or medicine theme to help cure us.

So here are, ten songs or artists that may relieve us of all the bugs so we can look forward to warmer weather ahead.

1. Medicine Bow: The Waterboys

This is a fabulous song from a band I will be seeing shortly in my local town. It is from their album, This is the Sea which I still consider their best.

I believe the title refers to Native American spirituality in terms of medicine.
