Münchener Freiheit - Kissed You In The Rain

Kissed You in the Rain - Münchener Freiheit

Musical Style

“Kissed You in the Rain” is an emotional pop rock song by the German band Münchener Freiheit. The song, released in 1988, shows the band's signature style: compelling melodies, layered vocals, and a dreamy atmosphere. The English track has a soft, melancholic tone with rich arrangements that enhance feelings of romance and introspection.

Text and Theme

The song is about a loving, but perhaps also fleeting, memory. The text describes an intimate and symbolic experience of a kiss in the rain. It evokes images of passion and the desire for connection, but with an underlying melancholy that highlights the transience of the moment.

Good luck

“Kissed You in the Rain” was one of Münchener Freiheit's English-language attempts to appeal to a larger international audience. Although the band remained mostly known in German-speaking countries with hits such as “Ohne Dich (Schlaf' Ich Heut Nacht Nicht Ein)” , this song was able to show their versatility and got a place in their live performances.

Album and Context

The song comes from their English language album “Fantasy” , on which they previously translated success songs and presented new English-language tracks. The album combines their German pop sound with international pop influences from the late '80s.
