This track was acclaimed singer-songwriter and musician Carole King's first chart success; previously she recorded other singles while she and songwriting partner Gerry Goffin wrote songs for other artists, and she recorded this song as a demo that was eventually released as a single. "It Might As Well Rain Until September" went to #22 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1962 and achieved its highest chart position on the UK Pop chart, where it peaked at #3, becoming her biggest hit in that country.

![The Family - The Screams of Passion (Edit)
This was one of my favorite songs of 1985 and its from a band created by Prince, which was comprised of former members of The Time: Jellybean Johnson, Jerome Benton, and St. Paul Peterson, plus saxophonist Eric Leeds and Susannah Melvoin, who is the twin sister of Revolution guitarist Wendy Melvoin. The sound is unmistakably Prince, made even more spectacular with the addition of a symphonic orchestra arranged by Clare Fischer I just love those smooth, mellow dance grooves that blend so well with the lush orchestra strings. The Screams of Passion peaked at #63 on Billboards Hot 100 chart in 1985, but I strongly felt that it deserved to be a much bigger hit; it achieved bigger success on the Dance and R&B charts though, going to #10 on the Dance charts, and at #9 on the R&B charts.
