Songs to make it rain

[CookingNonna]

Can we all sing Kate Bush’s Cloudbusting please?

And take your pick from the following songs. And feel free to add your own. We’ve got to do something. Yes, I know it won’t make a difference but maybe we can throw away the hosepipe, turn off the kettle and do a rain dance.

It’s raining Men - The weather girls
I can’t stand the rain - Tina Turner
No rain - Blind Melon
Purple Rain - Prince
November Rain – Guns N' Roses
Singing in the Rain - Gene Kelly
Raindrops keep falling on my head - BJ Thomas
I wish it would rain -The Temptations
Rainy Days and Mondays – The Carpenters
Blame it on the rain - Milli Vanilli
Sunshine on a rainy day - Zoe
Umbrella - Rhianna

A minister for drought. Once they allocate this job , it’ll rain for months I hope !
( they did appoint one in 76)

@BlessedAreThePureOfHeart you’ve just unlocked a memory of my misspent youth, loved the Dogs D’amour!

My first thought! Pour your misery down on meeeee.....

It’s raining!!!! It’s actually raining and I am in the garden enjoying the novelty of it.

So envious! Still no rain here, so the rain playlist has clearly only been a partial success.

I did a daft rain dance earlier, dh looking at me like I’d lost the plot but 10 mins later it tipped down 😬

Laughter in the rain - Neil Sedaka
Walking in the rain with the one I love - Love Unlimited
And not entirely seriously but it always makes the dgcs crack up, Down Came the Rain - Muster Murray.

If anyone wants to know where the rain has gone, Typhoon Dolphin has dumped it all over Shanghai. The videos coming out of China are insane.

If this summer isn’t the wake up call to Global Warming then nothing is.

I am going to sell my left kidney to pay for my roof repairs to make it watertight for when the rain comes and dumps it all over the U.K. in November.

I pray the return of rain is gradual.

if it dumps it at one we’ll have flooding with the baked ground and the acres of concrete where green spaces used to be.

It was 17° and rainy here yesterday, so no need for us to sing this one (I always sing it in my head as the train crosses the Tyne), might help the rest of you though 😁

Anything by Scottish bands should bring it on, we have had lots rain cloud cold for past few weeks and I’m in central belt it was 15 yesterday we are not even in northern Scotland, hoping for some sunshine this week.

Can you all just hold off with the rain making until after the weekend? My daughter is getting married and we'd quite like it dry on the day!

Absolutely this. If it pours down in monsoon force then the rain will slide off the ground and cause mass flooding.

I think you’re safe!
