abstract
  • %22Mandolin Rain%22 is the third track from The Way It Is, the debut album and commercial zenith for Bruce Hornsby and the Range. The song, released in late 1986, was a #4 hit single for the band in March 1987, following on the success of their previous single, the #1 hit and title track of their debut album, %22The Way It Is%22. It also reached #1 on the adult contemporary chart for three weeks, and #2 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart for two weeks, also in early 1987. The song even reached the Top 40 on the Country chart, hitting number 38.The song was co-written by Bruce Hornsby and his brother John and featured Range member David Mansfield on the title instrument.It appears to be partly inspired by the song %22You Don't Miss Your Water%22 by William Bell due to it employing the same hook (heard at the beginning of both songs), and by a remarkably similar swing feel (albeit with different chords).
