7 timeless songs for the rains!

Despite the dull and dreary weather, something about its vibe has made rain a recurring topic for music and has served as a backdrop for numerous pop songs over the years, some of which have gone on to become classics.


If you’re struggling with your monsoon playlist, we give you a list of songs you should download right away.


Guns ‘N’ Roses- November Rain
The bad boys of rock ‘n’ roll had a soft side to them as well, a side they explored through ballads like Patience and the much loved November Rain which went on to being one of their most iconic numbers.


Carpenters- Rainy Days and Mondays
Is there a voice both melancholic and upbeat as Karen Carpenter? This was a huge mainstream hit and continues to be a regular on the radio.

Prince- Purple Rain
One of Prince’s signature guitar songs, it’s hard to imagine the kind of emotion Prince managed to conjure up with just one guitar.

Madonna- Rain
A stark departure from her bad girl image, Madonna embraced some of her rawness and vulnerability through this song which went on to being a big hit.

Led Zeppelin- The rain song
Jimmy Page has mentioned that the vocals on this song could possibly be his best. Who can argue? Also those lovely words crooned by the maestro- ‘upon us all a little rain must fall.’

Garbage- I’m Only Happy When it Rains
This song is all about melancholia and embracing distress. The band was anything like their name and made many a haunting song similar to this one.
