Spoiler for rain?:

Yeah, Slayer is cool. Anything with the word rain, raindrops, rainbow even, or anything to do with rain in the song, title or artist. But not rein or reign.

Okay, I would say maybe restrict it to a max of three or four videos per post. Some people whose computers are not so fast as ours might not thank you, as the CPU struggles to cope with so many videos in one post. Thanks.

With good reason, turns out that rain is a popular topic for song writers, doesn't it, Trollheart?
Well, it's "atmospheric", something everyone has experience of, and also has a sound that is tempting to incorporate into music. The Doors did it well in Riders On The Storm, and here is a lesser known song by Dando Shaft with some fine "raining" mandolin to set the mood:-

Lyrics to show that even if people don't particularly care for the song, they can't accuse it of being off topic:
