1736 - I Think It's Going to Rain Today


I have quite some images taken from under an umbrella, so how’s about an image of an umbrella?

Actually this is really from yesterday morning and there was no doubt involved. It undeniably did rain, and the image was taken at the Underground platform while I waited for the train 🙂

The Song of the Day is “I Think It’s Going to Rain Today” by Randy Newman. I have it on the 2003 album “The Randy Newman Songbook Vol. 1”. See a 1979 version with orchestra on YouTube. Good as it gets 🙂

Melanie Safka did a great version of "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" on her 1974 album "Madrugada". One my favorite songs ever. John

Interesting you call her by her full name. Around here she is only known as "Melanie". Thanks for the tip.

She's always gone by Melanie, but her 'day' is long since past (though I still listen to her a lot - she was/is quite a song writer) and I think there's some other singer more recently that goes by Melanie too (not sure), so I tend to use her full name when referring to her with someone else. My favorite for many, many years. John

It takes awareness to see the potential of something that most of us have looked at thousands of times. I like the way the shot reminds me of a "Tutu". Great shot, Andreas. cheers ®

It takes awareness to see a "Tutu" here, and besides, thanks for educating me, had to look the word up 😄
