"Rainin In Paradize" is the first single released from Manu Chao's fourth studio album, "La Radiolina". The song was first released on the artist's official website as a free download in June 2007 before it was officially released on July 2 through digital outlets such as iTunes worldwide.

Wozniak version

The first video released for the song was an animated video directed by Wozniak and Manu Chao. It was released on YouTube by Nacional Records on June 4, 2007. The visuals are much like those of the Sibérie m'était contéee album art.

Kusturica version

A second video was released on June 30 on YouTube by Nacional Records. This one is a live action video with Manu Chao and a three members of La Colifata (named Eduardo, Hugo and Alejandro) driving around Buenos Aires in the rain. One by one, Manu drops the passengers off until he is reunited with them in the end. The film features many images of suffering in the world. It was directed by Emir Kusturica.
