It always rains on them because they are shit. Sorry but I absolutely hate this band. Utter drivel.

Surprised no one has mentioned this but then again it is an 80's Pop song but I love this song

A punk band from Toronto, a good one

Billy Talent - Standing in the Rain

Came here to post that song. I'm not really a fan of anything else they've done but that one track is fantastic.

Anyway, here's another rain song which was one of favorites when I was a little kid:

And another song that was a favorite of mine during my gothy teenage years:

Here's ELO from "Out of the blue", part of the "Concerto for a rainy day", this is "Standin' in the rain".

and Jack, thanks for that Oran "Juice" song, brings back memories of my time on the (community) radio! Bet he wishes he had picked a different name now though? OJ?

It's odd how many songs with "Rain" in the title are good. Some omissions below, not great songs, but good ones...

Madonna - Rain - YouTube

Phil Collins - I Wish It Would Rain Down

A few others, that are famous but not good...

Missy Elliot

There's also an earlier, dull version of "I Can't Stand the Rain," by Tina Tuner. I've never seen the music video on TV or heard it on the radio, so it's a forgotten single.

Don't apologize, I hate them to, it's the only song I could think of. Ha! my friend has like 4 albums of theirs and I asked "Why the **** do you have have 4 Travis albums" he said "I figured they must eventually have a decent song"

Didn't Milli Vanilli have a song about placing blame on nature or something.
