...my brother, James Eric Mason, had answered earlier, and had been reminded of another Nina Simone recording, even if he might've thought of David Bowie's cover first:
and he recalled this:
while my sister-in-law, Paula Mason, was reminded of:
and Kelly Robinson and Joe Megalos were moved to note some suggestions on my FB "wall"...
Kelly's were:

while Joe was moved to cite a handful, including:
(and two other Waits songs, "Rain Dogs" and "More Than Rain")
and (interesting how many fugues are inspired by rain)
and Massive Attack's "Pray for Rain" and, as did one of Sarah's direct correspondents, the Jesus and Mary Chain's "Happy When It Rains"

I remember Thompson Twins for just two songs — "Hold Me Now" and "Shout". We listened to these numbers in the early to mid-eighties which had some of the best Grammy songs that I still listen to.
"Shout" was actually a Tears for Fears song, but a pretty similar sound and set of haircuts, to be sure!
Oops, my mistake. How could I mix up the singers? But I listened to both anyway, along with a whole lot of others including Baltimora, A-ha, Tina Turner, Boy George, Berlin, Dire Straits, Cyndi Lauper, Lionel Ritchie, Diana Ross, Alphaville, Stevie Wonder, WHAM!...you get the drift, Todd.
"Twilight" is such an excellent album. Of course, I shouldn't know that living as I am in 1962. But I think an exception is pardonable in this case given the subject matter of that disc...
