"Man in the Rain" is a single by musician Mike Oldfield, released in October 1998. It is from the album Tubular Bells III. "Man in the Rain" features Cara Dillon on vocals and "The Inner Child" features Rosa Cedrón (Luar Na Lubre).
History
"Man in the Rain" is similar in style to Oldfield's 1983 hit, "Moonlight Shadow", from which "Man in the Rain" borrows sampled drums. An early version of "Man in the Rain" was also written shortly after "Moonlight Shadow".[1]
Man in the Rain was also the working title for Heaven's Open. Another early demo version of "Man in the Rain" was recorded for Oldfield's Islands album, with vocals by Barry Palmer; this version later turned into the song "Heaven's Open".[2]
Although Cara Dillon performs on the album, she was not present at the Tubular Bells III premiere concert at Horse Guards Parade in London. For this performance and subsequent live dates, Pepsi Demacque sings "Man in the Rain". During the premiere performance of "Man in the Rain" some of the stage lights unexpectedly cut out.[3]
