Dan + Shay, Justin Bieber – 10,000 Hours (Official Music Video)

Canadian pop singer Justin Bieber.

The song he collaborated on with American country artist Dan + Shay is “10,000 Hours.” The biggest appeal of this track is the vocals, where their gentle voices intertwine beautifully.

The lyrics open with a witty line: “Do you love the rain enough to make you want to dance?” That alone makes it perfect for June, but the chorus—“I’d spend 10,000 hours to know you, and even more if that’s what it takes”—evokes June bride imagery and makes the month feel even more lovely.

September In The RainDinah Washington

DINAH WASHINGTON – SEPTEMBER IN THE RAIN

One of the nice things about songs that include specific dates in their titles is how they evoke the season.

Among them, you can’t leave out the classic “September in the Rain,” released in 1961 by American singer Dinah Washington, who shone across genres like R&B, blues, and jazz.

This beautiful cover of the 1937 song focuses on September rain within the autumn season, and the lyrics really resonate.

With a warm atmosphere that feels as if you’re skipping along through a gentle downpour, this track is well worth a listen.

Only Happy When It RainsGarbage

Only Happy When It Rains

This is the song Only Happy When It Rains by Garbage, featuring Nirvana’s former producer as both drummer and producer.

It’s a very twisted song about being happy only when it rains! Apparently, the lyrics were written as a satire of the gloomy mood that became popular during the grunge boom centered in Seattle.

It’s a track that received very high praise from fellow musicians—so much so that even the legendary band Metallica covered it.
