My favourite season of the year Rain is an inexplicable beauty. Rain means relaxing and deep thinking, does not it? When those drops pitter-patter around me, I find myself breathing in bliss. Rain accompanied with music is the bliss in bliss - A piece of heaven. I usually have a cup of coffee, sit near the window and turn on my music. Here are my favourite songs to listen to… that fit the rain and go with it are all by Ilayaraja. This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin - http://oar.org.nz
