Released in 1971, Creedance Clearwater Revival’s “Have You Ever Seen the Rain” is one of their defining songs, summing up the sound of the band in a melodic yet gritty track. Singaporean singer Linying’s cover of the track adds a beautiful element of softness, translating the bitter and harsh tone of the lyrics into one of tranquility and sadness.
Arranged simply with just her voice, a keyboard and a guitar, expect to hear this track over an end-of-the-episode montage of your favorite network TV drama. I was released on her Dropbox as a part of her 1800-LINYING-SINGS lockdown series, and is available to be listened to here.
