This was the most downloaded song when iTunes first went live back in the early 2000’s.
Irony of this song is obvious, but the layers of who sings it and who it was sung about (fave band was INXS)
Last stanza is meaningful for everyone at some point in life:
And if the night runs over
And if the day won’t last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
It’s just a moment, this time will pass
Rainy day today… I think I will watch the rain.
