Rain Drops
This song is loosely based around one of Rains lyrics posted in the original lyrics forum ( http://www.guitars101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27762) I think she sort of gave permission to use them and I hope she doesn't mind too much  I made a lot of changes because I wasn't particularly comfortable singing the more ... um ... intimate lines.
The style of tune is not something I am used to playing and I really struggled to get the feel right. Hopefully it came out ok.

Radar Rain and Jimmy - thanks. Mandy is definately a creative spirit and I am sure someone could do an original collab with the young vixen. This one pretty much wrote itself and it would be great if someone else could do more. And who better than Rain to sing it? Thats what the lyrics forum is about - Ideas for songs.
