Faust: It's A Rainy Day (Sunshine Girl)

aka Rainy Day, Ice Rain, Stretch Over All Times, Rainy Day, Rainy Day, Rainy Day II, Rainy Day Sunshine Girl

Author : Rudolf Sosna

"It's no wonder that 'Rainy Day' is being covered so often: I think that Faust was certainly to feel this ur-urge to stomp. This is an ancient and universal expression of togertheness, of 'belonging to the clan', of 'joining in with the universe", of 'leaving your carnal envelope', 'activating kundalini', 'getting drunk with happiness'. Here also, stomp, stomp, turn, turn, turn, and take off man, take off. So Faust did a cover of this ur-urge as many did it before and many after." Jean-Hervé Péron, mail to the Faust list, 5th Dec 2004.
