Welsh rockers The Alarm were an established band in Europe, but they didn’t really break through in America until 1987, when they released this amazing stadium rock-friendly anthem. Not surprising, too, that this song would be a hit, considering the success of U2. “Rain In The Summertime” has that same Joshua Tree vibe, and is all the better for it; thankfully, frontman Mike Peters never grew a Bono-sized ego.
