[Rain Songs] A Special Collection of Western Music to Listen to on Rainy Days – Rainy Songs (51–60)
Georgia RainTrisha Yearwood
The beautiful choral work is captivating.
This song is by Trisha Yearwood, an American female country singer with worldwide popularity.
It was released in 2005.
With gentle piano and strings that unfold at a relaxed pace, it’s a grand, expansive ballad.
As the title suggests, it’s themed around the rain that falls in the state of Georgia, and the lyrics express a bittersweet, heartrending feeling as the singer recalls being caught in the rain with her first love.
Memories of being drenched in the rain with someone you love… it’s kind of romantic, isn’t it?
I Think It’s Going to Rain TodayUB40
Included on the 1980 album “Signing Off.” A cover of a song originally released in 1968 by American singer Randy Newman.
As an early track by the six-piece reggae band from Birmingham formed in 1980, it has a strong impression of the distinctly British reggae flavor compared to their later work.
It’s a song that truly reflects their early style.
Only Happy When It RainsGarbage
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.
Rainy DaysGeneral Public
The cheerful sounds and rhythms of reggae ring out, giving the impression of a lively, playful rain.
It’s not like the quiet patter of raindrops; even if a rainy day might make you feel blue, it carries a vibe of getting through it cheerfully.
It’s rhythmic music that somehow makes you feel upbeat just by listening—full of a “things will work out” energy and power, like “some days are like this, so let’s smile.”
The Sunshine After The RainBerri
A single released in 1994.
A cover of British singer Elkie Brooks’ 1977 release.
Born in 1974.
A singer from the UK.
The programmed digital sound driven by synthesizers immediately catches the ear.
Its positive, up-tempo melody is danceable and makes you want to get up and dance.
