- "Come In From The Rain" is a fabulous song written by Carole Bayer Sager and Melissa Manchester and released in 1975. It was covered by any number of artists including this splendid version by Toni Tennille backed up by the Captain. The Captain and Tennille released this song on their third album which was named after the song. Toni hits this one out of the park.

In 1985 I was traveling on business to Reno, NV, and my wife was with me. We made reservations for the Captain and Tennille Show on Sunday night, then we had a terrible snowstorm. The only people that showed up was me, my wife and one other couple. They brought us to the first row and did the full 90 minute show. I was right at her feet as she sang and was mesmerized by her performance. That is one talented woman. And her version of Come In From The Rain is one of my favorite songs of all time.
❤
That’s what super stars do. This is a lovely story. Thank you for sharing. They are both special people. ❤
Had a similar experience with Dean Martin. Heard some great stories. Very nice guy .
THIS IS WHAT REAL MUSIC,& REAL TALENT SOUNDS LIKE,SOMETHING TODAYS GENERATION WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND.MACHINES WERE'NT NEEDED TO MAKE A PERSON SOUND GOOD.THIS IS WHAT REAL TALENT LOOKS,& SOUNDS LIKE.
In 1977 I was working a concert in Cleveland for the record label. After the show (Front Row Theater) she wanted to go dancing. So I grabbed my rental car and about five of us including Toni piled in and we all went dancing! She was very nice and a great person.
Not a single singer in the history of this song, in my humble opinion, comes close to knocking it out of the park like Toni, in this version. Brings tears to my eyes every single time
DIANA ROSS' version is more depth and sentimental!
I remember telling myself back in the day that I could have made her a bigger star than Cher or Diana Ross
Amen to what you said.
i agree
This one gets to me, just like Dan Fogelberg's Auld Lang Syne.
I want to know who the 39 tone-deaf listeners are that gave this a thumbs down. This is a gem. It still gives me chills decades later. Such a voice.
Amen S.
I think it is over produced which might have something to do with the 39 tone deaf listeners. Cut out much of the music and just let Toni's voice carry it.
There will never be another Capt & Tennile. I'm so happy I grew up in this age of music. So many irreplaceables.
Wonderfully said, Lisa!
This is a Sager/Manchester Composition that only Toni could own. I can't stop watching.
Tennille's version far outstrips the original and others. Just an excellent song.
Her voice is so powerful that none of the instruments can drown it out, even when the tempo of the instrumentals pumps up.
Absolutely stunning! The way she ramps up and blows it out at 2:26 just makes me close my eyes in amazement. Thank you Toni!!!
I know! Now why the hell would anyone waste that talent on that stupid "muskrat" song? I believe that "muskrat" song all but ended her career.
She can really sing. Beautifully sung Toni.
It was almost like this song was written just for her and her amazing voice!
OMG..WHAT A VOICE ...WHAT HEAVENLY MUSIC...BRILLIANT...
This song is so timeless. And so beautifully done by C&T. Best version ever.
Toni is so Timeless.
I was 14 or 15 when these 2 appeared on the scene and I loved them then but I never really appreciated how utterly beautiful her voice is until I heard this tonight for the first time in 43 years. I am truly moved. Wow!
Wanda James. I was about 11 yrs old when they were in their prime. Loved them...had all their albums!! Now as an adult, I do appreciate her amazing voice much more.
I didn’t think anyone but Melissa Manchester could do justice to this beautiful song, but Toni did! Amazing!
Drop dead GORGEOUS woman with a voice that's just as beautiful...God Bless her!!!This is what real talent sounds like.
I agree wholeheartedly! 🌹
Still beautiful after all these years.
She seems like a good moral person and a musical genius with versatility.
Silver Fox--I agree 100%. And Daryl was an amazing keyboard ist, arranger and producer. So glad we have their music so easily available to enjoy! 💙🎶
Approx. 25 years ago I was dining out & she, Doc Severinsen & their group came in. I recognized them immediately. I must admit I was stunned by her beauty. I kept trying to steal glances w/o being obvious. I look over and she is staring at me then she winks. I blushed and she smiled that big, warm smile of hers.
"Toni hits this one out of the park." She certainly does.
I agree--way outta the park.
@@gildamarlowe9493 Always liked her ,,but this is beautiful........
Wished this had been a single.
So in love with the C&T version.
Work it Toni Tenille. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
She is such a skilled vocalist, all the while playing the main melody line on the piano. Some lyrics come booming out, some at barely a whisper. How could all of that talent and beauty end up on one woman? (rhetorical question!)
What makes this performance so memorable is that she is singing to the Captain.
@@aaronaragon7838 I guess so. But what an odd couple that was!
Who? And I mean WHO sings like this anymore?!! Chills everytime. Unbelievable vocal power and range. Wow!
thanks Michael for tuning in.
Still listening Toni. And you’re still beautiful. 👏👏👏
@@Luv2u01 Amen.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this song -- and this version is just beyond words. The lyrics are just absolutely delicious and Toni is incredible here. This is the best song ever for them!
Thanks Paula for tuning in.
This is the first time in 40 yrs since I've heard this song. IT sounds just as good now as it did the 1st time I heard it.
Thanks David. Like a fine old wine.
Every School of Music should use this as teaching material.
So very sad that this quality of entertainment doesn't exist any longer.Our memories will remain beautiful forever though.
NO it does not
I remember it coming back in vogue. People got sick of the plastic computer music. 2019 was a big shift.
To be sure, this type of music was a throwback even in the 1970's.
Oh, Sally, you are so wrong, fortunately. If you want to see/hear quality vocals and performance, check out Dimash Kudaibergen. He has perfect pitch and sings over 6 octaves.
Jack, I am 55 years old, and I could not agree any more. Well stated! Your response was so interesting. I felt like I was having a good chat with my mom. Thank you.
It is very sad indeed, I may add. I don’t listen to the radio. I’m here with you on TH-cam. I also enjoy Pandora, if you are familiar with the app. It is well worth looking into. Take care!
Outstanding
That performance was amazing!
The 70's were still a romantic time, big production value, real talent, etc the likes of we'll never see again. Such a nice schmoltzy tune!
clemsonbloke #Love is #Dissolving not #Evolving #Poo
Such a talented woman! Her voice literally gives me ripples of goosebumps on top of goosebumps! She had a powerful , controlled vocal
She sure did.
Would you believe?,she is almost 80 years of age now,back in the 70's ,i was just a kid age 7 to 12,for those years i was listening to their music already,im now 53,still loves their song GODBLESS YOU MISS KATHRYN ANTOINETTE TENNILE.😀😃😄😁😆😅🤣
This is music kids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Passionate meaningful songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
holly hull #IHearYaShesAGoodSinger
Holly Wilton. So so true!!
Wow! INCREDIBLE!! Speechless. Her beauty and voice is incomparable!
Real talent! Real music! Real beauty! A lesson for the kiddies!
Listening to beautiful ballads again after all these years really touches me emotionally. Wheewww...
Thanks for visiting The Hammer Works.
Absolutely stunning! This performance shows you the power that Toni Tenille’s voice and beauty commanded. Love them! God bless her and may Captain rest in peace.
Thanks Crystal for tuning in.
Decades later, still a great example of a great song, and wonderful vocals. Underrated.
Thanks Ranger, you are preaching my sermon.
I was way too young or perhaps just born when this song was made and Toni Tennille was popular. I know my dad liked her.
I miss this kind of music. It’s just not made much anymore. It takes so much talent to preform this way. A true artistic talent like Toni Tennille makes this so emotionally moving. The woman who wrote this, Carole Sager, deserves much credit also. Ahhh, to hear words and a melody again, instead of the screaming angst snd trash talk that comprises music today.
Wow, so many friends and relatives have passed on since this came out in the mid 70s.. It was always good to hear that wonderful Alabama voice!
Beautiful lady and beautiful song.Five stars for sure.Pure class and delivery.
Thanks Sally for taking yhe time to express your views.
For me, this song is quintessential 1970’s! ♥️
Many have covered this song, with their own orchestrations and vocalizations, but this version is always my favorite! She had such a gorgeous, full-throated voice, that also had a sexy touch of raspiness to it. Thanks for letting us enjoy this again!!
she was classically trained - discernably superior
Great job by Toni, demonstrates that she can really interpret a song with artistry, mastery, and emotion. Just beautiful.
I sang backup for them at Harrah's casino in Reno when i was 17
I've always had fond memories of the Capt and Tennille from the 70's, but I've never realized that Toni has such an incredible voice till I saw this. Thank you for posting this video.
Thanks Clyde for checking in with us. Toni was a fine singer and , I think, a bit undervalued during her era.
me too...
One of he great woman musical performances ever.
One of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard. So Ribbiting!
I think you meant riveting--Ribbiting is what a frog does.
@@fredbloggs6080 I'm a toad. RIBBIT! 🐸
@@loadtoad I didn't notice your channel name. Sorry if I implied you were a frog.
@@fredbloggs6080 LOL It's all good. So many people identify my as a frog, but I forgive them all. Now, are you going to share that house-fly with me or what? RIBBIT!
@@loadtoad You are welcome to any of houseflies that get in my house. As of late I spray them with alcohol or window cleaner to disable and catch them.
It is so refreshing to see true talent
This woman is amazing. What a voice. Didn't really appreciate this song when it first came out....yup, I'm that old.
What a gorgeous voice! Want to wish her a happy 75th birthday today! I hope she realizes that she had such an impact on music in the 70's and beyond and hope she will never give it up! I went to see her perform several years ago in Prescott Arizona where she resides now and ive got to say she sounds just as good as ever and is just as beautiful! Sorry to hear they are divorced now, thats still a little hard to believe but it seems like she is doing well, I hope the same for Daryl.
Toni lives in Florida now.
@@JP5466 no, she did for awhile but moved back to Prescott years ago before Daryl passed away and was with him when he died. She only spent a short time living in Florida. She's appearing now starting in November in Hello Dolly in Prescott. She mainly moved to Florida while she was working on her book and her sister Jane passed away recently who she was living close to in Florida. She says she is not ever moving again away from Prescott.
@@nicsfan4ever Wow I did not know Jane died. How sad. In her memoir I read about how she moved to FL and was happy her raising dogs.
@@JP5466 Yeah she lost her dog Smokey too and now just has Bebop and Lula but recently got 2 rag doll persian cats also. She realized while she was living in Florida that she missed her "tribe" and also needed to be closer to Daryl. You love someone forever like that like she did him and she knew moving back was the best thing. Jane passed pretty recently too.
@@nicsfan4ever The weird thing about their marriage is he did not seem to love her. I believe Daryl had autism or some other mental issue. Her memoir book is very good, I've read it about 3x. Daryl was very strange.
Magnificent! Leaves me breathless.
+Gilda Marlowe Thank you Gilda for checking in with us. Your reaction was mine.
this and "The Way I Want to Touch You" are my two favorite Toni Tennille vocals.
One of their lesser known songs, but definitely one of my favorites.
This song gives me goosebumps. Loved The Captain and Tennille.
Tony does a fabulous job on the song.
My first concert. Nobody can touch this version.
Always loved the line "And a man like you will always choose the long way home"
Agreed, those are some fine lyric.s.Thanks Daren for visiting the site.
Classy lady. Classy singer.
Thanks for tuning in.
I love this song. And this duo.
Amazing voice, classy lady and a beautiful song.
My favorite Captain and Tennille song. It's sad to think of all those who are taking the long way home through the rain with no one to come home to.
Had been searching for this and yes here it is.
Almost New Year’s eve, 2023 will be added to my memories of 80 years.
Sometimes there is a song that allows one to play their personal experience with all the human emotions they have gone through.
Thank you, Ms. Toni for your giving me the song.
Why don"t anyone write songs like this anymore. We need more in these troubled times so beautiful. What a voice, makes you cry. TY Toni Tennille THE BEST
A fine song by a talented performer. Thanks Jeff for your thoughts.
Thank you for posting it made my day
God I love this song!
Thanks for tuning in.
This is not just a superlative performance to enjoy, when you hear this you are blessed.
Thank you for this video. I may have been too young at the time the C & T were performing on TV. I totally appreciate their talent, though. Tennille knocks me OUT with her fabulous voice, lovely face and her presence. I am unbelievably grateful for those who share your videos. I also appreciate the comments posted. It’s really been fun catching up with all of you. ❤️🙏
I never thought, as a child, that I’d ever be able to relate to this... deep song.
I just love the Captain and Tennille. I was sad to hear that their marriage was not a happy one.
@Jack Mason Daryl was very talented and came from a very musical family. May he rest in peace.
@Jack Mason Well, the marriage wasn't good; Toni loved Daryl deeply, even went back and took care of him when he was dying. But Daryl was incapable of loving her back, really. I have heard that he was probably on the spectrum (as in autism), and just had very limited capacity that way. Even looking at all those pictures of them together, the way he was usually expressionless, that seems to fit, even though I never recognized it all those years ago.
But to say he was talentless is not true at all. He was an equal partner in the music making with Toni. He did exactly what Richard Carpenter did for his sister Karen (another favorite duo of mine), arranging the music, sort of "packaging" her singing. The marriage itself was one-sided, and Toni did without a real love relationship all those 39 years. Richard and Karen Carpenter certainly had their problems in life, with drug addiction and her anorexia that eventually killed her. But both of those duos were among the greats of music in their time, and all four individuals were/are great musicians.
@Jack Mason what? Dragon was talented as was Ike. To dismiss them is just closed minded. Many people get married who shouldn't. Many people pick a-holes. Oh, well. Hopefully, they'll learn and not make the same mistake.
She adored him and he was just too abused to love. She hung on for 40 years until she was done. Happens all the time. Ask any 75 year old woman.
I worked with both of them at their place in Washoe Valley between Reno and Carson City NV. Daryl wrote the backup for me. I was 17 and sat between them. Toni was wonderful. He was quiet and talented. Toni also sang with our Nevada Opera and we did some musicals that featured her. She has written an autobiography. You should check it out!
Haven't heard this song since I was a kid. My Mom had a cassette of their greatest hits.
What better time to cherish this song after a hard rain. Power by Toni Tenille❤
Great song , great interpretation, such a beautiful
Voice , ladies & gentlemen;
Capitán & Tenille !!
Thanks Pedro for checking in with us.
Powerful and attractive voice...Great
Such a good singer, with one note you know who it is! So talented.❤❤❤
I don't hear this kind of voice anymore. Beautiful.. thanks for posting!
Amazing. I would buy a ticket to the show if that was the only sang she sang. Love it.
What a powerful voice that is also controlled and beautiful!
I really like the way she glances at him as though singing to him. I really believe they love each other. I pray his physical health improves..
+Yolanda Tolentino Thanks Yolanda for expressing your thoughts.
Apparently their marriage was not happy. But I love how she looks at him. Maybe their music connected them in a type of love. I know one thing back in the 70's when my marriage was falling apart listening to them and seeing them together gave me hope that true love was possible. Turns out it wasn't good for them. Still I love them both.
Wow just wow I'm lost for words, whilst I wipe away the tears...
Thanks for checking in with us.
Toni Tennille is sensational in this video playing and singing..
Yes, l have their album. I am/was/still will be a fan.
Love this song !
Thanks for tuning in.
This song. Wow. Still makes me choke up.
Beautiful... Ms. Tennille, one of the greats
Screw today's hip hop music!
This was real music people!!!
Totalmente amor a la música con profesionalismo y el respeto y por eso duraran x siempre en el recuerdo😅
They aren't the same, though..
In the day when talent was needed to be a popular performer. No elaborate dancers, light shows, flames or electronic gimmicks. Just a great talent, voice, presence. musicality and a great song. There are some great voices in music today but not even close to Tony or Karen Carpenter. Musicians and singers
+Jim Fling Thanks Jim for sharing your thoughts.
Excellent point. The singing of beautiful ballads like this demanded it and we had a richness of voices to express these wonderful songs. What a high point in beautiful melodies and lyrics!
Thanks Dave for checking in with us.
I agree!!
Jim Fling amen amen amen
my favorite song of Capt. and Tennille!
Toni is amazing!
She's so Awesome! ♡♡♡♡♡♡ love her voice ♡♡♡♡
Thanks Felix for visiting The Hammer Works.
Take notes todays generation.This is what real talent sounds like.
I agree pop music is on a decline, but instrumental music from teenagers and young adults is incredible. While the wrong people get famous for the wrong reasons, incredible talent from high schoolers and college students is relatively ignored for their lack of profitability and their youth. Look into marching bands, wind ensembles, or youth orchestra, and you will find passionate young musicians yet to get their time in the spotlight.
I just discovered The Captain and Tennille and I can't get enough. Toni is sensational and they are a great team!! Thank you so much!
Beautiful lady, beautiful song, very nice voice.... love her songs..
WHAT?! I had NO IDEA that she had a voice like THAT! I'm totally impressed.
Have always enjoyed listening to her.
still fresh today!
Wow they don't have music like this anymore she is magnificent.
Toni’s Great “pipes” on display!
Magnificent. This was made during a time that encouraged people to work hard and develop their talent. If you had talent, you had a chance, just by singing a good song. You did not need some talent show. Today, talent takes a back seat to bombast, filth and controversy. The acts are selected and the complexity and musicality is second to the beat and the formula. Good singing is not needed due to electronics and musicianship is not important since it is all loud noise. We know it's all crap. That's why good music never dies and we will always go back to it.
The most beautiful song I've ever heard, and even better than the original.
Maybe its because they started out with a few novelty type song hits, but she never got the credit she deserved for being the outstanding singer and musician that she really truly is. This performance is brilliant.
Thanks Zack for checking in with us.
This is the best version, and I have listened to them all. Over 30 years ago I sent tape recordings of about four versions, including Toni's and Melissa's, and Jane Olivor's, and I think Shirley Bassey's, to a colleague who was a piano instructor, about 20 years older than me, who hadn't heard any pop music, including Elvis, until about that time, when he was about in his late 50s or 60. So going by the voice and arrangement only, he thought Toni's was the best version.
She was also gorgeous, and should have been an even bigger star, but she did okay. In an interview she told a story of when she was starting out and trying to get an agent, and one agent told her that she wasn't good enough or bad enough to make it in pop music. I guess she proved him wrong. Her voice is very underrated. I saw her on a variety show singing with a number other guests, who were not particularly singers, and the difference was obvious and showed, by comparison, how good she really was.
@@artfuldodger8147 Yes she did a great job with this. Of course it can't compare to Muskrat Love. That's a joke. It just occurred to me to ask, is there such a thing as muskrat puppy love?
@@artfuldodger8147 This is my favorite singer currently: th-cam.com/video/fOitELGlNlk/w-d-xo.html
A true talent. I remember the 1st time hearing "Love Will Keep Us..." Here, Toni presents her talent on commercial TV. Look at how they have that talent "dressed". A straight man's decision, I guarantee you. Salutes to Melissa & Carol, Toni & all the women involved with this music seeing the light of day.
I have never seen someone belt out a song like this while playing an instrument. She’s also six feet tall and drop-dead gorgeous. How lucky can you get?
