I Think It's Going To Rain Today - Randy Newman Cover/Collab (Rhopen/Duckscli)

Hey folks, I had the pleasure to collab with Ron (rhopen) on a cover of my favourite Randy Newman song. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics:

Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
Think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend

Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

nice job. I appreciate you guys bringing Randy Newman to my attention. An artist I am not very familiar with but right up my alley. Am I correct to assume Ron is playing piano on part of this ? Or is Duncan doing all the piano ?

[duckscli]

@dannyknapp. Hey Danny, cheers for the comment. I play the piano on the parts I'm singing and then Ron plays the piano on his part, you can probably tell that he has a better keyboard!

[Oswlek]

Not sure how I missed this the first time around, but it is a real treat. Love those deep piano sounds.

[rhopen]

Hi Duncan. I was about your age now when I first heard this song. I became a big fan of Randy Newman soon after. I love the way you perform it here, especially that last verse. Thanks for inviting me along on this one. Cheers and I will talk with you again soon. -Ron

Well done. I enjoyed this.

[karlmahlmann]

Very well-done Duncan and Ron. I really enjoyed. and a cool concept for a collab - like "you take the 1st verse and I'll take the bridge". I've always liked Randy Newman, especially some of his dry humor laced songs. Nice work guys. - Karl

Wow, what a beautiful, beautiful rendition of this song. It's a beaut of a song. Both of you guys are independently wonderful musicians, then something else magic and special gets added when you collaborate. Fabulous!

You and Ron both did a beautiful job with this one Duncan! Enjoyed the way you both did your separate parts both with piano and vocals:) Bravo!! *****
