It became Eurythmics' 2d Top 10 U.S. hit, peaking at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Song data [edit]

Stewart explained to Songfacts that creating a melancholy mood in his songs is something at which he excels. He said: "'Here Comes the Rain Again' is kind of a perfect one where it has a mixture of things, considering I'm playing a b-minor, but and so I modify it to put a b-natural (sic – the song is in A pocket-sized) in, and then it kind of feels like that minor is suspended, or major. So it'southward kind of a weird form. And of class that starts the whole song, and the whole vocal was about that undecided thing, like here comes low, or here comes that downward spiral. But and then information technology goes, 'then talk to me like lovers do.' Information technology's the wandering in and out of melancholy, a dark beauty that sort of is similar the rose that's when it's darkest unfolding and bloodred just before the garden, dies. And capturing that in kind of oblique statements and sentiments."[ii]

Stewart also said he and Lennox wrote the song while staying at the Mayflower Hotel in New York City. It was an overcast twenty-four hours, and Stewart was playing "melancholy A pocket-sized-ish chords with the B note in it" on his Casio keyboard. Lennox came over, looked out the window at the gray skies and the New York skyline, and spontaneously sang, "Here comes the pelting again". The duo worked out the residuum of the vocal based on that mood.[2] [3]

The string arrangements past Michael Kamen were performed by members of the British Philharmonic Orchestra. However, due to the limited space in the studio, the Church, the players had to improvise by recording their parts in other parts of the studio. The song was then mixed by blending the orchestral tracks on top of the original synthesized backing track.[2]

The running time for "Here Comes the Rain Again" is in actuality well-nigh v minutes long and was edited on the Affect album (fading out at approximately iv-and-a-half minutes). Although it was edited even further for its single and video release, many U.S. radio stations played the full-length version of it.[ citation needed ] The entire five-infinitesimal version did not appear on any Eurythmics album until the U.S. edition of Greatest Hits in 1991.

In the UK, the single became Eurythmics' 5th Top ten hit, peaking at #8. It was the duo's second top ten hit in the United States, peaking at #four in March 1984.

Music video [edit]

The music video, featuring both Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart, was directed past Stewart, Jonathan Gershfield and Jon Roseman,[4] and released in Dec 1983, a month before the single came out. The video opens with a passing aerial shot of the Erstwhile Human of Hoy on the Island of Hoy in the Orkney Islands before transitioning to Lennox walking forth the rocky shore and cliff meridian. She later explores a derelict cottage while wearing a nightgown and holding a lantern. Stewart stalks her with a video photographic camera. In many scenes the ii are filmed separately, then superimposed into the same frame.[5]
