In questi giorni mi capita spesso di sentirla nel Trailer del film Mordimi (Vampires Suck) – parodia di Twilight – nella quale colonna sonora ne è stata inserita una versione di Kelly Kass.
L’originale, quella del nostro video, è del 1982. Scritta da Paul Jabara e Paul Shaffer originariamente era interpretata dalle Weather Girls. Nel 2001 la ex Spice Geri Halliwell ne ha pubblicato una cover di grandissimo successo, sicuramente il suo più grande da solista. La versione della Halliwell è stata inserita nella colonna sonora del film Il diario di Bridget Jones
Questa canzone è considerata una classiche icona gay, e questo è in effetti il motivo che l’ha fatta scegliere per essere inserita nel film Mordimi.
Il testo di It’s Raining Men (che significa Stanno piovendo uomini)
Humidity is rising
Barometer’s getting low
According to our sources
The street’s the place to go
Cause’ tonight for the first time
Just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It’s gonna start raining men
It’s raining men
Hallejulah
It’s raining men
Amen
It’s raining men
Hallejulah
It’s raining men
Amen

Every special men
Tall blonde dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean
God bless Mother Nature
She’s a single woman too
She took over heaven
And she did what she had to do
She taught every Angel
To rearranged the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find the perfect guy
It’s raining men
Don’t get yourself Weather Girls

I feel stormy wheather moving in
About to begin
Hear the thunder
Don’t you loose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed
(Rip off the roof and stay)
It’s raining men
Hallejulah
It’s raining men
Amen
It’s raining men
It’s raining men
