Day 2 of slow jam week. Today's topic is rain.
Rain makes everything more dramatic. Oh the pain! Baby I love you so much I'm standing out in the rain!
Example 1: Usher's U Got It Bad, released in 2001. It spent 6 weeks at number 1 on the Billboard Charts and was song number 99 on Billboard's Hot 100 50th Anniversary Chart. Pretty good considering that chart was based on all the number one songs between 1958 and 2008.
Example 2: Crazy by K-Ci and JoJo (told you they were a slow jam powerhouse) Crazy has it all: rain, scenes from Save the Last Dance, things happening in reverse, fight scenes, ballet, AND it turns out K-Ci and JoJo have super powers over morality. Who knew?! Crazy didn't reach as high on the Billboard Charts as All My Life (only #11) but it did spend 23 weeks there.
