Poll-ish: What is the best rain song?

It's uncharted territory for Song vs Song. Instead of a song pairing, our next episode begins with a question: what is the best rain song? It can be a song with rain in the title. It can involve rain in a literal or metaphorical way. It just has to involve rain. And be the best.
