"Rain" is a song by the English rock band the Cult. It was released on 27 September 1985 by Beggars Banquet Records, as the second single from the band's second studio album, Love (1985), and reached No. 17 on the UK singles chart.
Despite the song's popularity with the band's audience, and it being one of its more commercially successful single releases, after performing it on 24 November 1989 at Wembley Arena Astbury asked the crowd: "So you like that one?", and after it cheered in response, he responded with "Well, personally I don't but there you are..."
AllMusic wrote: "[...] "Rain" finds the group's deliciously bombastic Big Rock approach already firmly in place but tempered by a genuinely tantalizing melody.
An extended remix was recorded by the band titled "(Here Comes The) Rain".
