Singin' In The Rain
- MINT ROYALE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My God, you fly thousands of miles to get some sun
And it's rainin' cats and dogs!
Typical tropical, I go on vacation and Mother Nature gives up on me
Yeah, what a lady

Thanks for at least sendin' it down pre-heated!
Doesn't seem to bother the natives, though
Back home it gets no one laughin', and here they even sing to it
Must be some voodoo rain chant or somethin', humph!
And it sure sounds familiar, oh well

I'm singin' in the rain, just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling, I'm happy again
I'm laughin' at clouds, so dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love

Let the stormy clouds chase, everyone from the place
Come on with the rain, got a smile on my face
I walk down the lane with a happy refrain
I'm singin', just singin' in the rain

Let it rain all day

I'm singin' in the rain, just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling, I'm happy again
I'm laughin' at clouds, so dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love

Let the stormy clouds chase, everyone from the place
Come on with the rain, got a smile on my face
I walk down the lane with a happy refrain
I'm singin' and dancin' in the rain

Let it rain all day

I'm singin' in the rain, just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling, I'm happy again
I'm laughin' at clouds, so dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love

Let the stormy clouds chase, everyone from the place
Come on with the rain, got a smile on my face
I walk down the lane with a happy refrain
I am singin' and dancin' just getting wet in the rain

Let it rain all day

Buckets of sunshine that bring me your love
Buckets of sunshine that bring me your love




Let it rain all day, I love the rainy day
We got sunshine, everyday

Storytime. When this first came out in 2008 and George Sampson danced to it in the BGT finals, it was the most inspirational thing I had ever heard or seen.

I was six years old. I did tap and ballet at the local dance company about 5 minutes away from home every Saturday morning before 9AM. It was my first real passion, the first talent I had. I performed at theatres and in front of an actual audience, and I was happy.

Then J.S. came along. I won't name and shame him, but he was another six year old in my class. More importantly, he was one of the reasons why I crushed my dreams of being a dancer and threw them away. I was no longer 'just a kid who wanted to dance'. I was girly, gay, stupid etc... whatever else he called me. I was strange, as a boy, for liking the colour pink. I was teased for going to school with painted that I let my sister do. Everything I did that was 'feminine' or relating to dancing, pink, or ballet was wrong.

It hurt. It really hurt, and now, 15 years later, it hurts the most because I don't dance professionally anymore. J.S. relentlessly bullied me to the point that I CONVINCED my parents to stop taking me to dance classes, full stop. Never again. I dropped all my passions and aspirations for what someone else, and society overall, labelled as 'wrong' for a young boy to like. I was a victim of the societal pressure to not act like a 'girl' and toxic masculinity. Yes, I know some of you HATE that phrase, but it's real, look it up.

I stopped dancing because of him. I don't 'do dance' anymore.

In early January 2021, I was sat on the bus on the way to the beach to chill and do some reading, when I remembered this song. I started to play it, thinking it would be a cute nostalgia trip, but no.
Holy fuck. It brought up all the emotions I felt at six years old, all at once. I left the bus looking like a mess, avoiding eye contact while trying to wipe my tears.

I forgot just how much I loved dancing. In that moment, it all came back to me as a reminder that it was my strongest passion, my strongest talent.

I still like the colour pink. I still fucking hate J.S. The only thing that's changed is I'm passionately gay and instead of dancing, I write poetry. This whole experience led me to write a piece for my first self-published anthology, '18 MONTHS'.


Basically, hearing this fills me with both pure sorrow and joy and takes me back to that time in my life. It's 2008, I'm six years old again, doing tap and ballet on Saturday mornings at 9AM. I'm watching George Sampson in the BGT finals while this song is playing. I like dancing. Life is good.
