Songs about Rain


Following my weather theme I've got going, here are ten songs about our precipitous friend (or fiend?) we call rain. Did you know there is a song called "Sun King" by the Beatles and "Rain King" by Counting Crows (though the latter is a reference to the 1959 novel Henderson the Rain King by Saul Bellow) - strange coincidence I thought:

1. Rain King - Counting Crows
2. Mandolin Rain - Bruce Hornsby
3. Every Time it Rains - Charlotte Martin
4. Rainy Day - Coldplay
5. Come Rain or Come Shine - Frank Sinatra
6. It's Raining Again - Supertramp
7. Fool in the Rain - Led Zeppelin
8. November Rain - Guns N' Roses (one of my all-time favorites)
9. Who'll Stop the Rain - Creedence Clearwater Revival
10. The Rain, the Park and Other Things - The Cowsills

What are your favorite rainy day songs?


Its Raining Again - Supertramp
