Leo Sayer (born Gerard Hugh Sayer, 21 May 1948, Shoreham-by-Sea, Sussex) is an English-born singer-songwriter and musician whose singing career has spanned four decades. A distinctive singer-songwriter, Sayer was a top singles and album act on both sides of the Atlantic in the 1970s. His first seven hit singles in the UK all reached the Top 10 - a feat first registered by his one-time manager, Adam Faith. From his first hit with “The Show Must Go On“ in 1973 to the present day, Sayer has never been missing from the charts for longer than five successive years.
Raining in My Heart“ is a popular rock and roll ballad recorded by Buddy Holly with the orchestral backing by Dick Jacobs. The music and lyrics are written by the songwriting team of Felice Bryant and Boudleaux Bryant. It was released as a single on Coral Records in 1959, peaking at #88 on the Billboard charts as the B-side of “It Doesn’t Matter Anymore“. This recording was included on Buddy Holly’s first “greatest hits“ compilation album titled The Buddy Holly Story that was released in March 1959.
The song was also a 1978 minor-hit for Leo Sayer when his recoding of the song peaked at #47 on the Billboard Hot 100. In addition, the song was performed live by Rick Danko throughout his solo career. Others who have covered the song include Status Quo on their album Don’t Stop, and Don McLean on his album Starry Starry Night.
In 1968, The Beatles paraphrased the first line of “Raining in My Heart“ in their song “Dear Prudence“ as “The sun is up [instead of “out“]; the sky is blue.“
Lyrics:
The sun is out, the sky is blue
There’s not a cloud to spoil the view
But it’s raining
Raining in my heart
The weatherman says fine today
He doesn’t know that you’ve gone away
And it’s raining
Raining in my heart
Oh misery, Oh misery
Oh misery
What’s gonna become of me, oh
I tell myself, my blues won’t show but I know
That soon all my tears will flow
Come a raining down, raining in my heart
Oh misery, Oh misery
Oh misery
What’s gonna become of me, oh
The sun is out, the sky is blue
There’s not a cloud to spoil the view
But it’s raining, oh it’s raining in my heart
