“Oooh I hear laughter in the rain, walking hand in and with the one I love. Oooh, how I love the rainy days and the happy way I feel inside.”~Neil Sedaka
I love rainy days. So I thought, since it’s a lovely rainy day here in Houston, I’d make up a playlist of rainy day songs for me and for Brown Bear Daughter who also likes rainy days. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
Singin’ in the Rain – Michael Gruber
Laughter In the Rain–Neil Sedaka
Over the Rainbow (From “Wizard of Oz”) –Judy Garland
Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head –B.J. Thomas
Blame It On the Rain–He is We (Courtesy of Brown Bear Daughter)
Grace Like Rain–Todd Agnew
April Showers–Judy Garland
Pennies from Heaven–Bing Crosby
Rainy Days and Mondays –Carpenters
Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again–The Fortunes
Fire and Rain–James Taylor
Five Feet High And Rising–Johnny Cash
Can you think of anything else that I should really add to this playlist? I’d like to have a really good rendition of Showers of Blessing, but I didn’t find anything on iTunes that I was sure I would like.
One of my favorite rainy day songs–and I don’t think I have it on anything but a record is an Oscar the Grouch song. Rain Falls. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PbRlzPZAQo) And then there is I’m Sad Because I’m Happy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmQIzSF1yb0)
Thanks, Becky, I enjoyed those –in a grouchy, rainy sort of way.
One of my favorites is “Come In From the Rain” by Melissa Manchester.
Remember When It Rained by Josh Groban… 🙂
