REISSUE: "When The Rain Begins To Fall” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Jermaine Jackson and Pia Zadora

REISSUE: "When The Rain Begins To Fall” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Jermaine Jackson and Pia Zadora

The 80s were a time of pop anthems in both rock and dance music. One of the most dramatic of which was formed with Jermaine Jackson and celebrity singer Pia Zadora – “When The Rain Begins To Fall” – produced by Jack White who also gave us Laura Branigan’s “Gloria”. This one is a video number that is played out like an adventure in a desert land where two lovers are destined to overcome all obstacles to be together. With Jermaine’s yearning and Pia’s sultry delivery this one powers more drama with a thumping electronic soundtrack. It is the 80s dance scene on fire.

I have taken the 12” remix version and reapplied this play into a ReStructure Mix with more high energy riffs and segments to play out with more exaggerated emotion. Thunder claps and rolling sequencers make this remix a stage powerhouse. The duet has not lost its stars – Pia and Jermaine are clinging to each other throughout this number still.
