Halleluiah its raining them

[SueEllen]

So there's mother nature, single woman, lots of 'she' in the song. Yet all they change is the 'men'.

Yep -

e.g. intro -
Hi! Hi! We're your weather girls
(Uh huh)
And have we got news for you!
You better listen
Get ready all you lonely girls
And leave those umbrellas at home
Alright

Most of the lyrics have been written if you care to listen. It's not just the headline "them". Deary me though. Some of those dance moves are so camp, they make look John Inman look butch.

Is there a source that isn't the Fail?

The other sources I've found are The Express and similar...

Better copy all your favourite songs from YooooToooob before they get altered.

It's a new song. The old one is still there.

If you can bear to listen to the new one - it's autotuned, which I understand can be a stylistic choice but I find abhorent - I think the only word with any gender in it is Mother, as in Mother Nature. It's a single parent now. No mention of girls.

I doubt it'll raise a blip in the charts. Or whatever passes for them nowadays.

Though I do think the visuals have improved

Nah. I much preferred the nice fat ladies in the original.

Nah. I much preferred the nice fat ladies in the original.

And they can sing properly!

I fully expect to be called woke and a white knight, but FFS there are some bigotted comments in this thread!

[NotAllThere]

But mostly bemusement.

[ladymuck]

Ugh. Autotuning? Definitely not going to listen to it.
