The five best songs about rain:
5. “It’s Raining Men” - The Weather Girls
Iconic.
4. “Fool in the Rain” - Led Zeppelin
Zeppelin’s most underrated song?
3. “Umbrella” - Rihanna
In a world filled with love stories, I’m a sucker for any art about friendship.
2. “I Wish It Would Rain” - The Temptations
One of David Ruffin’s last records before the big blow up, I love how sad this song is.
1. “Rain” - The Beatles
Ringo is famously never flashy, just giving a song what it needs. But he’s out of his damn gourd on this track, the little-known B-Side to “Paperback Writer.” At the end, it also uses the first instance of reversed sound.
