Hey all!
It's Monday again.
This morning, I looked out of the window to a hopeful, yet brief soft blue sky. I knew that it would be cold out. But, as I put on my coat and gloves, that flicker of sunshine and colour made the thought of my early morning commute to work a little easier.
It's the afternoon now, and the city's been laced with a fine rain. The gentle blue has been burried, and the sky's turned to a thick, heavy, clouded grey.
As I wave goodbye to the vibrant morning and tuck into a warm drink, I watch the raindrops hit the window and spiral down.
Although the rain can add a little mysery to your Monday, it got me thinking about how many beautiful songs mention the rain. And, it's LOTS.
Here's my current favorite:

I'd love to hear yours!
Rain in the lyrics, title, or ...artwork even! Get sharing 🙂
I look forward to listening,

Have you ever seen the rain ? Get your umbrella..
Hum how about Blind Melon's No Rain?
This is from the Undertale soundtrack but I think it fits into the theme very well, so...
Love this track
No music and rain without Prince's "Purple Rain".
2016 has been kind of crazy in almost every aspect. Thank you for the music Prince! Unfortunately Prince's music isn't on Spotify as of yet..

Jeff Lynne, the guy behind ELO, went to a Swiss chalet to compose his next record. He was caught by a torrential rain that went on for days.
So he wrote "Concerto for a Rainy Day", a suite made of 4 tracks, that ends with the famous "Mr. Blue Sky".
Enjoy you all!

Ah! and XTC made something similar with "Ballett for a rainy day"+"1000 Umbrellas".
I suggest to listen them one after the other 🙂

@yourninatchka Thank you for sharing this! I have had this whole album on repeat or the past week now, it is so good! It reminds me of The Avalanches, and I noticed one song off of the album-Alone (Not Really)-even uses the same sample from The Avalanches song Since I Left You.
i'm so glad you like this song, too LionScale! one reason i love it so much is cause it begs the question of what genre is this song but i don't want to figure it out i just want to listen to it 😛 i'll check out the avalanches' song you mention - thanks for the suggestion.
This is my favorite rain track:
