Naked in the Rain

"Naked In The Rain" is a hit song performed by dance music group Blue Pearl and released as their debut single in 1990.

It is different from most dance songs, as it features a heavier, rawer sound, mostly due to live drumming (not a drum machine) and the hard-hitting synthesizer riffs not too dissimilar to the sound of 808 State and Graham Massey from 808 State was the track's co-producer/remixer.

The song was first a hit in the UK, reaching #4 on the UK Singles Chart ^[1] in July 1990 and later becoming a hit dance song in the U.S., hitting the top five on the Hot Dance Club Play chart.

A music video accompanied the song on its release, featuring the group performing in an almost industrial-like atmosphere and visualizes the overall atmosphere of the song.

This song is not to be confused with the Red Hot Chili Peppers song of the same name which is track 12 on their album 1991 album Blood Sugar Sex Magik.
