Queen of Rain was the second single taken from Swedish pop duo Roxette's 1992 album, Tourism: Songs from Studios, Stages, Hotelrooms & Other Strange Places.

It was originally written and recorded for the highly successful Joyride album. Initially considered as a closing track, it was replaced by Perfect Day. Instead it became a cornerstone on 1992's Tourism: Songs from Studios, Stages, Hotelrooms & Other Strange Places album and one of Per's favourite Roxette tracks.
