While 'It's Raining Men' was released in the autumn of 1982 by the American music duo The Weather Girls as the lead single for their third studio album, the lyrics describe excitement and enjoyment of many types of men; In contrast, "Bodies" released in 2001 by American rock band Drowning Pool, an ode to the intensity of mosh pits,also enjoyed a good amount of commercial success. Somehow, both songs seem to commemorate the iconic moment in 1998, when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

You get my ass every time. Although this one was even more unexpected. Glad to see you here.

Honestly, I dislike both songs. However watching Hell In A Cell on tv with my boys is a memory I will cherish.

Real Shittymorph or not, the very fact that someone is trying makes me believe that everything will be okay.

And another one gone, and another one gone, and another one bites the dust

That's hilarious, so many songs about bodies free falling from the sky and hitting the floor, like rain.

I'm back at my cliff, still throwing things off I listen to the sounds they make on their way down I follow with my eyes 'til they crash

My wife described it as having the vibes of quiet morning hangover sadness after a wild night of partying. I just picture a really sad hungover guy looking out a window at a rainy landscape and thinking to himself I was once a party rocker in the house tonight, but what am I now?

I actually love both songs, and this is the masterpiece I didn't know I needed in my life.

JFC this is pure entertainment start to finish. Anytime somebody says 'fair use is BS' they'll get this sent to them.

Amazing. Ahh, that stupid bleached spiked hairstyle from the late nineties / early aughts. My shame has found me.

Last time I heard Bodies I was in a CVS parking lot and a pickup truck pulled in blaring it. I nearly lost it when I saw a 40 something dad wearing khakis get out of the truck. Then I realized I was a 40 something dad wearing cargo pants and quietly went back to my car to have a midlife crisis.

Bodies hitting the floor could be from any height. Raining implies a great height.

You know you found the right online community when you encounter shittymorph. I sure hope it’s the same person.

Even if it isn't as long as we're just doing reincarnations we're cool. Like the avatar.

I certainly wouldn't be saying, "hallelujah," if it were raining men. And cleaning up the aftermath would just be horrible. So many corpses...

Imagine if the songs The KKK Took My Baby Away and Fire of Unknown Origin (took my baby away) are talking about one really unfortunate baby that keeps on being taken away by random stuff.
