Lyrics:	Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo... I'm singing in the rain Just singing in the rain What a glorious feelin' I'm happy again I'm laughing at clouds So dark up above The sun's in my heart And I'm ready for love Let the stormy clouds chase Everyone from the place Come on with the rain I've a smile on my face I walk down the lane With a happy refrain Just singin', Singin' in the rain Dancin' in the rain Dee-ah dee-ah dee-ah Dee-ah dee-ah dee-ah I'm happy again! I'm singin' and dancin' in the rain! I'm dancin' and singin' in the rain...

Random facts:	This is Kurt Browning's most famous program, performed in his special "You Must Remember This." Kurt's repeatedly cited this as one of the highlights of his career, skating through simulated rainfall on a set specially constructed to resemble the actual movie scene. The "rain" was warm so as not to freeze Kurt, but quickly melted the ice, so that filming had to be stopped every 30 seconds to squeegee all the excess water off the ice. Kurt's suit also quickly became waterlogged and heavy, making it more difficult to skate in. However, Sandra Bezic has said that Kurt had the time of his life throughout the 10 hour shoot. In 2001, Kurt skated a cut-down version of this as a group number with Renee Roca, Josee Chouinard and Yuka Sato in the first Gotta Skate show. In 2012, Kurt decided to revive this program as a live show program, a longtime dream of his, and debuted it at the Medal Winners Open competition in Japan, winning 2nd place and a standing ovation. This also happened to be his first competition in six years. On the Stars on Ice tour, he also managed to make it rain on the ice in the final portions of the program. He has brought this program back many times since and has said that if he had to skate to one program for the rest of his life, it would likely be this one or Rag-GIDON-Time, but Singing in the Rain would be easier on his body.
