Milo’s early musical landscape was conflicted. Her mum liked Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, her dad was more into Elvis Costello, while 2pac was the soundtrack in her older sister’s bedroom. The first band Rainy loved were N*E*R*D. She started making music when she was 14. “I had a keyboard which I used to button bash,” she says. “I was into poetry at school. I realized that the poetry mixed with the stuff I was making on the keyboard could become a song.”
From putting up her first track ‘Bout You’ at the age of 15, which became part of Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Bubblers 8 compilation, to self-releasing her much loved Limey EP (her 5 song, streamable EP featuring co-writes and production from Oddisee, Chet Faker, Daje, Eldad Guetta, BLK RSSN, Flowzart, and Cole M.G.N.), Rainy is an artist who steps to her own bounce, wise and smart beyond her years, as demonstrated so expressively in the lines of her songs.

miss you
Rainy Milo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wouldn't miss a thing you do
But on sunny days
I couldn't be with you.
You said you miss me more when it rains
From red buses to?
If I could I'd bring you too.
I miss you more everyday
I missed you more yesterday
I miss you.
And if you
You care to make it all okay
Just let me go for one more day
I miss you.
And if??? through the heart
I hope you take mine too.
And if I'm ever wrong
I pray i'm right with you.
You're kind of fucked up but brilliant
Obedient but resilient.
You're always with me???
I like your lips
I should've kissed them
When I had the chance
But now the chances come and go
I hate to think that without me you might actually yawn.
I hate to think that without me you could easily think and breathe.
I hope that without me you can't eat, sleep, think or breathe.
I didn't mean to leave it so long
To say i was sorry
I didn't mean to leave it too long
And make you worry.
Because I'm highly unusual
I didn't mean to miss the mark
Or hide you outside
For quite a while
Come in, you never stay.
Is it me?
Is it me?
Is it really?
I miss you
I miss you more everyday
I missed you more yesterday
I miss you.
And if you
You care to make it all okay
Just let me go for one more day
I miss you.
I miss you
I miss you more everyday
I missed you more yesterday
I miss you.
And if you
You care to make it all okay
Just let me go for one more day
I miss you.
In the song "Miss You" by Rainy Milo, the writer expresses her deep longing for someone she has lost. She imagines herself as a cloud that never misses anything, yet during sunny days, she cannot be with this person. The person she misses tells her that they miss her more when it rains. The writer talks about bringing this person along if it were possible.
The lyrics depict a feeling of regret, as she wished she could have kissed the person when she had the chance. She hates the thought of this person living without her, and not being able to eat, sleep or think. She feels sorry for leaving it so long to apologize and worries about the person's feelings. The writer is unusual and may have missed the mark on certain things, but hopes to be reconciled with this person as they are brilliant, strong-willed, and obedient.
The writer of the song has used metaphorical language and imagery throughout to convey the depth of her longing and regret. Despite the lingering pain, she still hopes to be reunited with this person.
