I'm surprised so many of my favorites didn't even get a mention! My love of Roy Orbison's "raindrops" won't surprise you. Those rare occasions it rains here in Los Angeles, I somehow always get "April Showers" from Bambi stuck in my head, even though I haven't seen that movie since I was a little kid. I'm partial to Neko Case's cover of "Buckets of Rain" (speaking of Dylan) and Sunshowers, by MIA, and there was a period of a couple years when I put Nick Drake's song "Rain" on every mix I made. You could two completely separate mixes based on a positive vs. negative perspective on rain.Rachelnoreply@blogger.com
