WATCH: Fifteen classic songs for a rainy Hong Kong day
The things that come into our heads after a week of rain ...
If there's one thing to get everyone talking in a Hong Kong office, wherever they're from, it's the weather - especially if it's raining cats and dogs, as it has been on and off for much of this week. And once you've collectively exhausted the usual gripes and observations, where does the conversation turn? For our Young Post colleagues it was songs for a rainy day - and in no time they had come up with 15. We thought we'd share them with you - and get you thinking about which tunes you would add.
So here, in no particular order, are 15 songs for a rainy Hong Kong day.
Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head - BJ Thomas
BJ Thomas' insanely upbeat Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head is a no-brainer these days. It’s even better if you can sit inside and just sing the song quietly to yourself. (Susan Ramsay)
Monsoon - …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead
“Rolling thunder like a voice in my head”, sing Austin’s alt rockers amid a noisy tirade of crashing drums and pianos like a downpour on a metal roof. Epic, thrilling and perfect for a black rainstorm. (Lauren James)
