Boulevard - Rainy Day in London 1984
(Instrumental)
Spending my time
thinking of you,
I just can't seem
to get it through
Everything's o.k.
when you're around me,
way way down deep inside
Givin'way to feelings
that surround me
Hey,I saw you standin'there,
hopin'that you'd look my way
A glance, a twinkle in your eye,
memories of that rainy days
in London town
The way I feel
I can't explain,
the feeling's going on
inside me about you
Never thought
I'd feel this way,
day to day
it just keep slipping by me
Hey,I saw you standin'there,
hopin'that you'd look my way
A glance, a twinkle in your eye,
memories of that rainy days
(Instrumental)
In London town
Apologies to Randall Burgess, bass player on the "Blvd" album, I was paying too much attention to the how much space I had left in the comment below and did not include him. He let me know as much ..lol. Just playing that 1988 album now, he's right it is the better one... cheers.

Interesting version. Cool when band members contribute to the comments, it's great. I have both CDs (1988 Blvd by Blvd + 1990 Into the Street by BOULEVARD - why the name change-trademark stuff?)
Blvd members:
david forbes, randy gould,andrew johns,mark holden, jerry adophe
BOULEVARD members:
david forbes, randy gould,andrew johns,mark holden,tom christiansen,randall stoll
On the inside pic in Into the Street liner, clearly see A. Johns (singer above in video) on far left.

You had an aswer by Klutz38 3 months ago.
A short line to let you know that he is Andrew Johns, the keyborder of BLVD and the (keyborder and) singer of this soft Boulevard "Rainy Day..."-Version.
He ought to know.

No"FORBES" on vocals...No BLVD...In 1983, Mark Holden was invited to work in the new Thunderhead recording studios in Calgary, Alberta. Shortly thereafter, he and Randy Gould joined with vocalist David Forbes from Seattle to form the band BLVD.

This IS boulevard from the tv show they recorded in germany in '84. It is the original version of rainy day which was redone later that decade in vancouver.

This IS boulevard... The original version of the band in 1984 recorded in germany on CBS records. The song was retooled and recorded in the other version you hear on youtube these days.
