This is a remake of a song I wrote in 2009 after my only trip to England to settle my daughter into grad school in London. This was inspired by the tube (train) and thinking of a young girl getting off the train following her heart.

Fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Fogelberg, Moody Blues, Raspberries and other Retro Classic rock.
I am a fan of the Beatles, Fogelberg, Raspberries, Badfinger, Moody Blues, solo Beatles, Eagles. Any music that has solid vocals, good harmonies and a hook! I also am developing a fascination with old jazz standards. I am self taught on everything I play which explains my limitations. LOL! Up until a few years ago I was all accoustic all the time and did very little recording on an old 4 trak. I had written a lot of songs over the years on my accoustic most of those are not here as I started using the computer to record and wanting a more electric sound so out came an electric guitar, then I wanted a beat so the cheap drum machine came next, then I needed a bottom so the cheap bass was bought, then my drums sucked so I needed loops. Then I wanted some strings/sax so my keyboard was bought. Well you know the drill the more you get the more you want and songs that took 3 hours now take 3 days. And so my one man 6th grade band was born. I have put samples of the music I have written here on this website. I use drum loops and all other instruments are live Course you probably can tell that, LOL). Anyway as Harry Chapin's Mr. Tanner would say music is my life not my livelihood. I have met some great artists on SC and continue to hear great artists on SC. Click on the stations link to find Soundclick Radio stations where my music is playing. My music playing on these stations has been a pleasant surprise as these stations are filled with great musicians. I have also had the opportunity to collaborate with some very good musicians here on SC. My brother Jim, Svenni Bjorgvins, Juri Rosenfeld, Johnny Proctor, His Masters Choice, DeAnn Sanders, Dawn Sinclair and most recently Dawn Diamond. I am very grateful to all these artists for helping me to have more fun than should be allowed for free. Writing/recording/producing music I find to be very rewarding. I am learning so much everyday about every facet. The exposure to so many great musicians has really helped me evolve as well. Well if you are still awake thanks for coming by.

Story behind the song
Based on my only trip to London. It is a story of a girl (perhaps my daughter and my fatherly fear my daughter might stay in England after Grad school that did not happen Whew) But the girl gets off the train (Tube) following her heart because she is not happy with her current life and as the story unfolds it turns out to be a mistake and she was left standing in the rain.
Lyrics
Standing in the Rain Words Music Tony DeLecce 10/11/2009 Working every night until the break of day She said sheas getting tired living pay to pay Standing on the platform waiting for the train She took a step outside as it started to rain She was standing alone in the Rain Walking down the sidewalk she had plenty on her mind She wanted to leave all of her problems behind Walked around the corner away from the train She lost track of time now it was too late She was standing alone in the rain Bridge She needed something that sheall never find She needed something that she left behind Waking up alone in the middle of the night No one is there and nothing is right It was twenty years ago when she walked out in the rain She missed her train and now its too late Sheas standing alone in the rain Living alone, feeling afraid She said sheas getting tired of the Day to Day Nobody said things would be this way She took a step outside as it started to rain Sheas standing alone in the rain Bridge She needs something that sheall never find She needs something that she left behind Working every night until the break of day She said sheas getting tired living pay to pay Standing on the platform waiting for the train She took a step outside as it started to rain Sheas standing alone in the rain Sheas standing alone in the rain Chords: Verse: Dm, G, Em, Am twice Chorus: F, G, C

This is such a great song. Love the vocal harmonies, catchy melody and a story we can all relate to. It's got that "top of the charts" feel to it. Fantastic stuff!
