Comment:

It's a perfect storm when Deep Southern diva Ann Peebles pours her heart out on a soul-soaked "I Can't Stand the Rain" . . . but Lenny Kravitz reckons she should lighten up a little, and enjoy the moisture, judging by his cloud-surfin' ballad, "I Love the Rain." And, as the Cure walk willingly into a dark and dreary high-pressure system on the atmospheric goth rain dance "Prayers for Rain," Corinne Bailey Rae makes light work of "Another Rainy Day" and Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson looks with hope to the far side of the clouds on the soulful "Rainbows."
