Howard Devoto - Rainy Season

it was on youtube but it seems to have been deleted so here it is again, because it is just too amazing to not be here for everyone to see.

[@silverheadonyx]

thanks 4 uploading this * Howard Devoto is one of the most underrrated musicians ever ! I love his work with Magazine.

[@hellow7376]

I used to sing this song with my dad when I was a child. This give me a lot of feels :')

[@phellipemendes]

This is very beautiful

[@hellow7376]

The most innocent and beautiful road trips i remember.

[@mykidsister]

I do believe the chorus is the best thing I've ever heard.

[@martinquarton184]

Saw Magazine once then Howerd Devoto both in Derby. Magazine with Bauhaus at the Ajanta. Howerd at The Blue Note club

[@CarstenWeise]

Only guy I traveled more than 500 miles to see him live. I don't think he's underrated - those who know him rate him quite high. Surprisingly, lots of people don't know him nor Magazine. Magic Murder And The Weather is _the_ new wave record. In a way, made me change my life.

[@bluedog15]

fantastic, never seen the video before to this awesome song, thanks for posting it

[@lady2185]

OMG one of my favourite songs ever. Thank you for posting this, I had never seen the video!

[@pturberville108]

This is a very undervalued yet surreal song.Well worth rediscovering, even now.

[@Thats-Cool-Thats-Trash]

Wow. 1983 all over again. Jerky versions of the dream. My brain's a leaky boat. Cool post, thanks.

@franceska001 : Hi Fran! This is definitely a lost treasure, for many of Howard's solo work seems to have been vanished or obscured by Magazine's (great band, defintely), Nevertheless, i remember listening to this when i was 11, and then... nowhere... Luckijy, i heard it in a club in my hometown. Blessed DJ.

[@StanPomeray]

Different to Magazine, but most definitely not inferior. Yes, it probably is dated now, but then it was recorded almost almost 30 years ago. What do you want me to do? Invent a bloody time machine?

[@EndingSummerwithRalph]

One of my all time favorite videos, hopefully someone posts a remastered version thats cleaner.

[@snarlingrabiddog5150]

@franceska001 I opened for him in Kansas City Mo decades ago. His show was incredible.

[@CrowleysGhost]

Devoto is brilliant. Be sure to check out some of his work with his band Magazine. Not as pop-y as this, but completely unique.

[@nowheremanxxi]

@franceska001 Wow you were a very lucky girl to meet this singer that belongs to the history of music...

[@SandraDee1696]

I want this song. Does anyone know where I can find it? I used to have a record, but it was ruined.

[@fabala63]

Thank you! I used to love it when it came out, and had never seen the video, so double thanx! ^_^

[@emt333sd]

what a talent i love the work of Devoto and Magazine

[@mykidsister]

WAS IT REALLY ONLY YESTERDAY.

[@amberconner32]

I wasn't very old when I started watching Mtv seriously. I think I was about eight or nine. Anyway, I always found them brilliant and artistic, not what we have now. I used to watch the videos everyday after school. This brings back good memories. Thank you very much for posting this, and thanks to everyone that posts the old videos. I love them!

[@CaseFamily]

I do pray for the break of the monsoon... I liked this song. It meant alot to me at one time. It's from his solo album "Jerky Versions Of The Dream". I've got that on LP - never got it on CD. Thanks for posting this lovely song. Yes, it was only yesterday...sigh.

[@govinda102000]

He really went in a different direction than his time with Pete.

[@franniegolightly1]

Howard..if you ever look at these things...Hi there! lol

[@rollagasper]

excellent song, but the video is a bit creepy.

[@jdeyemom]

Awesome lyrics!

[@Takac1979]

Jerky versions ... is such a superb record!

[@feemay1966]

[@oldphoque]

This song was on when I became a man....

Great tune, and great artist! Had 'Jerky Versions Of A Dream' on LP, and now on CD. It is a brilliant release!

[@veewig]

Brilliant song, genius man, excellent band - possess the vinyl album & 45 - thanx for this --------

[@idogcow]

Thanks for this, the recent California rains reminded me of this, and you have satisfied my instant gratification.

[@PittsburghPirate]

Wonderful song - a real classic. Received a lot of airplay on 4ZZZ when it first came out

[@olliedeb]

What a fantastic track/video - from one of the most under-rated artists of all time!!

[@gorflunk]

Can't believe no one has covered this song! It's timeless.
