Name: Rain
Duration: P00H02M53S
Description: There’s an old adage: “write what you know about…” and there’s very little Northwesterners know more about than rain. And so “Rain” is the third song from the ever-growing and evolving “Sideshow” album by Vanilla, with a couple of happy nods in the direction of the Everly Brothers and Roy Orbison.

about

There’s an old adage: “write what you know about…” and there’s very little Northwesterners know more about than rain. And so “Rain” is the third song from the ever-growing and evolving “Sideshow” album by Vanilla, with a couple of happy nods in the direction of the Everly Brothers and Roy Orbison.

lyrics

Rain…you’ve forsaken me
The pain…has overtaken me
I don’t know why or wherefore
So I just cry and therefore, I’m in…

Pain...it’s a catastrophe
The rain...as I atrophy
I don’t know whence or whither
While I debate and dither, I’m in …

Pain, why have you taken me?
Her smile’s forsaken me
The pain is breaking me in two.. (ooh ooh ooh ooh)

Pain… in my misery
The rain...is my company
I don’t know why or wherefore
So I’ll just cry and therefore I’m in
Pain
In pain...

Such a joyful collection of songs. Nothing like quintessential Melbourne alternative rock to lift the spirits. Listening during yet another lockdown transports me to a band room in my favourite pub. Thanks for the music lads- looking forward to seeing you for real when we get outta here. Jacqui L
