Day 3: A song with 'rain'

Pound for pound, I like their second record more than their first, but they are both fantastic records. I remember being just completely stunned by Shirley's voice on this song especially. Decided on this live version here because 1) I love the little breakdown in the middle, 2) The solos come through stronger here than on record, and 3) Shirley founds lovely here, and is also a whole ass snack in this look. 🥵

My favorite band and I agree with all of this 😁
 
Day 3: A song with the word "rain".

I read an article 20 years ago talking about how in the 80’s and 90’s you were either a U2 person or an REM person. Back then I would have sided with U2 but REM has grown with me far better.

Technically rain doesn’t appear in the song just the title. Am I missing the prompt?

REM So Central Rain

Day 2: A song with the word “sun”

this is a truly psychotic video from some crazy 60s B movie…

Why was Sharon Tandy not huge? So underrated, and like the last song I played by her a few weeks ago, backed up by Les Fleur Dy Lys.

Sharon Tandy - Daughter of the Sun
It's from a 2016 film called The Love Witch, which is a little bit psychotic but in the best way 😊
 
Day 3: A song with the word “rain”

So I first heard this song in a movie theater and I stuck around for the credits to find the artist which sent me down a rabbit hole that I still haven't found my way out of.


I'll fake it through the day
With some help from Johnnie Walker Red
Send the poison rain down the drain
To put bad thoughts in my head
