"I'll Take The Rain" is the third and final single released by R.E.M. from their twelfth studio album Reveal in 2001. The song reached only #44 on the UK Singles Charts and failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Excluding songs that failed to chart, this was the lowest chart in the UK for R.E.M. since "Find the River" in 1993.
The single's video, directed by David Weir, represents the first time the band has released an entirely animated music video. The clip is suitably moody to match the pace of the song, and follows the adventures of a crown-bearing dog and his wooden cart (shown on the single cover) as he explores an island.
