"Chocolate Rain" brings to mind the '90s bubblegum-soul "Candy Rain," though I can't remember who sang it.
And how could we forget "It's Raining Men"?
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Well, I know what will be in my head for the rest of the day.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Anyone have a digital copy of "Georgy Girl" by the Seekers they could send my way?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oooh, Randy Newman's "I Think It's Going to Rain Today", which has my vote for possibly most depressing song ever.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Those are great, if a bit wrongheaded sometimes.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
My search pulled up:
"The Wind and the Rain," Ben Kingsley (from Twelfth Night)
"The Beauty of the Rain," Dar Williams
"And the Rain Crashed Down," Eddie from Ohio
"North Pacific Rain," "Eddie from Ohio
"Rainy Day," Guster
"Raining All the Time," Kill Hannah
Those are great, if a bit wrongheaded sometimes.
Meh. I resent the implication that just because a song could be used on television, it must be bad.

Well, I think his point was that these songs sound as if they were written specifically to be used on certain shows.
I just love how cranky he is! And glad I'm not the target.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think "Riders on the Storm" is the rainiest song I know.
