This is Maroon 5’s “She Will Be Loved,” a song that sings of unwavering love, saying, “I’d wait for you even in a downpour.” The protagonist has long harbored unrequited feelings for a woman.

She’s troubled and suffering, and he wants desperately to help her, but there’s always the presence of her boyfriend, keeping him at a distance.

“If it were me, I could love you like this,” he declares in this passionate track.

You can picture a devoted man standing in the rain, thinking only of her.

Rainy Days And MondaysCarpenters

It’s not a song with a flashy or assertive sound, but it’s a pleasant piece that works well as calm, quiet background music.

Karen’s easy-to-understand vocals and the timbre of the wind instruments that flow in partway through evoke a nostalgic mood, like quietly listening to the gentle patter of rain outside while you’re in your room.

Despite leaving such a beautiful impression, when I took a closer look at the lyrics, I was surprised to find they matter-of-factly recount the feelings of a woman in a long-term relationship—her blues and the doldrums that come with a rut.

One More Rainy DayDeep Purple

With its rare sound and vocals for Deep Purple, it gives the impression that fans who only know their peak era might be surprised, even taken aback.

What is this freshness? It’s a song that made me rediscover, in a sense, another appeal of Deep Purple—realizing they also sang such a refreshing tune.
