Music can change any mood, and at times make a situation more dramatic than it is. Some of us see rainy weather and spring into it, fantasizing about dancing with someone in the rain. Some of us might stare at the water droplets racing down the glass window while daydreaming. Some of us unfortunately realize we forgot our umbrella and realized we have a long walk before we get our umbrella or reach our destination. As a way to take advantage of the rainy weather and embrace it whether it is dancing, singing, daydreaming or pretending you’re in a dramatic music video to make the soggy umbrella-less walk a little fun, I’ve comprised a list of 8 songs that either sing about rain, or are good songs just to dance to in the rain.

Rainy Songs:

1) "Singin' in the Rain"

The Classic, the original "Singin' in the Rain" with the famous fun dance routine. My goal is to learn the dance routine in this song.

2) "Rain" : MIKA

The complete opposite to "Singin' in the Rain" for those who truly don't like rainy days.

3) Selena Gomez & The Scene: "A Year Without Rain"

Comparing losing someone to it being "like a year without rain."

4) Prince: "Purple Rain"

5) The Weather Girls- "It's Raining Men"

Songs to Dance to in the Rain:

6) Indila: "Derniere Danse"

A song that starts off mysterious and builds intensity.

7) Olly Murs: "Dance With Me Tonight"

A song for more of a reckless like dance in the rain.

8) Michael Buble: "Sway"

No longer will you be bored looking out the window on a rainy or dreading the thought of another rainy day in April.
