Rhythm of the Rain(悲しき雨音)

Rhythm of the Rain(슬픈 빗소리)

 

1962년 11월 릴리스된 이 곡은 돌연 하늘을 쪼개는 듯한 번개와 격렬한 빗소리로 '인트로'되면서 시작되고 있습니다. 

1963년 3월 9일에는 미 빌보드 차트에서 3위까지 올랐습니다. 

반세기 이상 시간이 흐르고 있는 가운데서도 세계팬들로부터 여전히 사랑을 받고 있는 불후의 명곡이랄 수 있습니다.
   
오리지날 곡의 가수는 The Cascades(캐스케이즈)였고, 그후 여러 나라에서 수많은 가수들이 커버곡을 냈습니다.

특히 미국의 포크록 가수 댄 포겔버그(Dan Fogelberg, 1951~2007)가 서정적인 곡조로 커버한 곡이 1990년에 릴리스되어 대히트를 쳐서 대단한 인기를 끌었습니다. 아래 들어 보시지요.

歌詞(가사)

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
Now the only girl I've ever loved has gone away.
Looking for a brand new start!
But little does she know that when she left that day.
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain,she know please tell me, now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another, when my heart's somewhere far away.
The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know 
That when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart 
Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart a-glow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow.
Listen to the rythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again
Oh listen to the falling rain
Pitter patter pitter patter
(Repeat and fade) 
 
 
 

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again
Now the only girl I've ever loved has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
Little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart
Rain please tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another when my heart's somewhere far away
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again
Oh the only girl I've ever loved has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
Little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart
Rain won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
And rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
Oh I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again
When the rain comes 
They run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
When the rain comes
