Top 3 Moments to Rain at a Concert: Featuring Garbage, Bon Jovi and Travis

Posted on August 8, 2010 Written by ripitup

It is all great when your favorite bands have great stage shows with impressive stunts, or just even little theatrics that go hand in hand with the song’s lyrics. But sometimes nature helps and the whole experience becomes more surreal. Here are top 3 concert moments when it rained:

1) Travis- Why does it always rain on me?

The song is from their 1999-dated The Man Who Album. The lyrics go something like this:

“I can’t sleep tonight

Everybody saying everything’s alright

Still I can’t close my eyes

I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Sunny days

Where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining

I can’t avoid the lightning

I can’t stand myself

I’m being held up by an invisible man

Still life on a shelf when

I got my mind on something else

Sunny days

Where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining

I can’t avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue skies go?

And why is it raining so?

It’s so cold

I can’t sleep tonight

Everybody’s saying everything’s all right

Still I can’t close my eyes

I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of the lights

Sunny days

Where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Even when the sun is shining

I can’t avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue skies go?

And why is it raining so?

It’s so cold

Why does it always rain on me?

Why does it always rain on….”

And yes, during a concert, it started raining right in the middle of this song.

2) Garbage- Only Happy When It Rains

This happened at a concert in Turkey. Shirley Manson was singing Only Happy When It Rains and well, the weather must have decided to put a smile on her face. I am not an absolute Garbage fan, or a big rain fan for that matter but I love this particular combination. The song is from their 1995 debut album Garbage.

“I’m only happy when it rains
I’m only happy when it’s complicated
And though I know you can’t appreciate it
I’m only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
And why it feels so good to feel so sad
I’m only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me

I’m only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad sad songs
I’m only happy when it rains

I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn’t accidentally tell you that
I’m only happy when it rains
You’ll get the message by the time I’m through
When I complain about me and you
I’m only happy when it rains

“Pour your misery down,
(pour your misery down on me)
Pour your misery down,
(pour your misery down on me)
Pour your misery down,
(pour your misery down on me)
Pour your misery down,
(pour your misery down on me)
Pour your misery down
You can keep me company as long as you don’t care

I’m only happy when it rains
You wanna hear about my new obsession
I’m riding high upon a deep depression
I’m only happy when it rains

(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains

(Pour some misery down on me)
(Pour some misery down on me)
(Pour some misery down on me)
(Pour some misery down on me)

I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)
I’m only happy when it rains
(Pour some misery down on me)”

3) Bon Jovi- Keep The Faith

Well, this song doesn’t have rain in the title, but it features this special part in the chorus: “…Keep the Faith…when you’re going through the rain…” I’m afraid I only caught this on a concert DVD, but it was still a blast. Keep The Faith is from the 1992 album of the same name and it is one of my favorite Bon Jovi songs and albums.

Lyrics:

“Mother mother tell your children
Their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger
These wars can’t be won

Father father believe me
I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow
Forgive me, forgive your wayward son

Everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody

Faith you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Gotta keep the faith
Don’t you let love turn to hate
Gotta keep the faith keep the faith

Tell me baby when I hurt you
Do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me all’s forgiven
And hide behind your pride

Everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody

Faith you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Keep the faith, though you know its never too late
Keep the faith don’t let love turn to hate
You gotta keep the faith, keep the faith, keep the faith
Keep the faith, keep the faith, keep the faith

Faith you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Keep the faith don’t let love turn to hate
Keep the faith you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Keep the faith, though you know it’s never too late
Keep the faith, keep the faith, keep the faith
Keep the faith, keep the faith, keep the faith

Everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody

Mother mother tell your children
Everybody keep the faith
Father father, please believe me
Everybody needs, everybody
Keep the faith, keep the faith, keep the faith”
