Rainy Day Women

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" is a song by Bob Dylan and the opening track of his 1966 album, Blonde on Blonde.

Many people believe that the song actually refers to the trials of relationships with women.[citation needed] In Robert Shelton's book No Direction Home (unrelated to the documentary), a biography of Dylan from his birth through to the late 80's, it is claimed that the song was banned by British and American radio stations due to the paranoia about "rock drug songs."

The song was covered by Sammy Hagar on his 2006 album Livin' It Up.
