I've got a couple...





Both great songs, and as a New Orleans native they also have particular relevance (for different reasons).

Not the best song about rain probably but it is called Rain. B side of paperback writer I think so it's weird there is a video for it. Never seen it till now, man John looks cool as hell. Paul not so much with his chipped tooth!

THIS is why I love YouTube. Beatles =blocked and 101 other bands, how about a cover with only a few subscribers? She does a great job and even wears the cool 60s glasses.

Edit: Also blocked....I hate yt sometimes.

Darn, they sound almost like a female version of Oasis! :smile: Great vocals!
(and Oasis sometimes sounded like a 1990s version of Beatles, some great songs but not as much variety as the Beatles, of course)

Flowers in the Rain, The Move.
This was also the first record played on the then new Radio One on the 30th September 1967. EDIT: Radio 1 is UK Radio

Thank you to everyone who post a rain song. I've really enjoyed listening to all of this music. :smile: An eclectic mix of sounds. The 2 old Top 40 ones I remember the most too, Dee Clark and Cascades. 2 very memorable movie songs, and a fun variety, slow and fast, happy and sad, and most of which I never have heard until now, both new and old ones. Good going.

This one has been playing in my mind for a while lately. Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain.

Deep Purple, "One more Rainy Day" it's when they were finding their feet, are we psychedelic? Rock? Pop?

I like the music but never liked Rod Evens voice, too cabaret.

Paicey is fantastic on the fade out.
