"Walking in the Rain" was the third single from Grace Jones' 1981 album Nightclubbing. The song was originally composed and recorded by Australian band Flash and the Pan and included on their eponymous debut album.
The B-side, "Peanut Butter" credited to the Compass Point All Stars, was actually an instrumental dub version of "Pull Up to the Bumper", yet to be released on CD.
"Walking in the Rain" was included in Jones' music documentary A One Man Show, and a snapshot from the video was later used as the cover of the 1985 Warm Leatherette reissue. The song was released in various remixes, among them a 7:30 12" mix including additional vocal overdubs, still unreleased on CD, regrettably omitted from the Private Life: The Compass Point Sessions.
In 2011 "Walking In The Rain' has been used by Peugeot in their television advertising campaign for their 308 car.
