RAIN SONGS

VA - Feels Like Rain Vol. 01 (A Butterboy Compilation) CD1+CD2+CD3+CD4

Rains songs are plentiful in rock , They are often songs about emotions but can also be just about rain. 

This set is part of a 10 Volume series that explores the RAIN in song. Each volume has around 100 tracks. You may be surprised to hear that I have culled this down from over 20 volumes worth of material. 

This first volume is given to some of the rain songs that I enjoy in the ROCK genre. 

Other volumes to follow , will include rain song in Folk Rock, Folk, Power pop, Psychedelic Rock, Sunshine pop, Blues, Soul and other themed categories.  Enjoy!

  1. Or, as we might retitle this, "Feels Like Oregon". The more rain songs the better....we gotta have
    a soundtrack, after all. Thanks!

    1. Hi efredd,
      Or, I should have titled it "Feels Like Rain In My Home Town".
      We are having winter weather here at the moment which means more rain ahead.
      I hope the sun shines for you soon.
      Cheers.

  2. This comp really does confirm you're an eastern seaboard Aussie, doesn't it? Brisbane or Sydney? (from the west coast)
