  2. "Crying in the Rain" is a song by #HowardGreenfield with music by #CaroleKing, originally recorded by American duo #theEverlyBrothers. Their version was released as a single on 22nd December 1961, peaking at number six on the US #Billboard Hot 100 in February 1962. The song was a collaboration between Greenfield and King, both of whom worked for music publisher #AldonMusic at the time. On a whim, two Aldon songwriting partnerships decided to switch partners for a day.
