When the latest single from The Kowloons came out in late September, the weather in Liverpool seemed to reflect the sentiment of ‘Raining (It Don’t Stop)’. Most people probably had found themselves soaked to the bones and complaining about the rain. However, right after its release, suddenly it stopped raining – as if that's the consequence when falling in love with this song.
Its bluesy feel is defined by a dominant electric guitar and up-tempo drums, as well as harmonies that add to the overall nostalgic feeling similar to bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Kinks. It's little off-beat parts might particularly get you into an excited toe-tapping state.
The dreamy middle part starts with “I can get no” and we possibly can’t be the only ones whose thoughts immediately went “Satisfaction!” before the actual lyric “sleep” finishes it. Yet again, this shows that the boys made a fantastic job incorporating their classic Rock influences while making something fresh and modern out of them.
