"Naked in the Rain" is a song performed by English dance music group Blue Pearl and released as their debut single in 1990 by label Big Life. The song was co-written by Blue Pearl's singer Durga McBroom and producer Youth (also known as Martin Glover). It is featured on their album Naked . Graham Massey from English electronic music group 808 State was the track's remixer. [1]
The song was a hit in the United Kingdom, reaching number four on the UK Singles Chart in July 1990, and later became a dance hit in the United States, reaching the top five on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. A music video, directed by Richard Stanley, accompanied the song on its release, featuring McBroom performing in a tropical jungle-like scene mixed with scenes in an almost Third World setting, and visualizes the overall atmosphere of the song.
In 1998 the song was remixed and released as a single. Entitled "Naked in the Rain '98", the remixed version reached number 22 on the UK Singles Chart.
