“It’s Raining Men” 

The Weather Girls

Paul Jabara and Paul Shaffer wrote “It’s Raining Men” in 1979, and after being rejected by Diana Ross, Donna Summer, Cher, and Barbra Streisand, it was recorded by Martha Wash and Izora Armstead, who took it #46 in March 1983.

Of course, it went on to become one of the great dance and gay anthems of all time. God bless Mother Nature!
