For so long, rain has been widely associated with gloominess and depression in many cultures. Gene Kelly smashes that common metaphor to pieces here. Not only does the rain not take away from his joy, it ADDS to his joy. Fantastic.
Depends on the culture. I think some people associate rain with abundance and prosperity. Or cleansing and renewal. But yes I’m sure Gene also had an impact with his song. It’s a very popular and catchy song.

I think it's safe to say that Gene Kelly's rain dance scene has reached iconic status. I worked as a recreation therapist in nursing homes and assisted living facilities in which I'd feature Gene in a program and show this--the patients' faces would light up. Once while I did this program, a newly admitted patient who wasn't adjusting well came. When I showed the rain dance scene, he got excited and opened up: "Oh my goodness! I remember when this came out--I met my wife that year! I loved Gene Kelly's dancing. I loved 'Singin' in the Rain'--it was raining when it opened in the theaters." I replied, "It sounds like life was imitating art." He laughed and said, "Yes, it certainly was." After that, this patient stopped being argumentative and became social with everyone. What an effect Gene Kelly had on this man!
Appreciate you sharing. My Dad and Mom loved this Movie, and Gene Kelly. They're gone now, but I like to think they're enjoying shows like this in Heaven.
I just read your story, actually it's the second time I have read it. I have a friend who works as a diversional therapist in a nursing home. Maybe that is what people like yourself are called here in Australia. It's the most noble work because it can be difficult and challenging and I think you really need a heart for people to do this important work. My friend is always trying to come up with ideas to help bring the elderly and depressed out to socialise and communicate, and certainly to get them a little more mobile. I'm sure she would think what you did would be a fantastic idea. I'm going to recommend to her what you shared here on TH-cam with us. Thank you so much for your heartwarming story and for all that you do for those in need of special care. God bless you.
I was leaving the club at 2am and it started raining hard. Everyone took cover and I was in a 3 piece suit dancing just like Mr wilder because it's ALWAYS been my dream. The patrol cars outside the club looked at me and I shrugged saying "I'm singing... and dancing... in.. the raaiiiinnnn" finally got to live that special moment!
I love the last line where he says, “I’m dancing and singing in the rain” after the cop was giving him a stern look. Not only was at the last line of the song, but he’s saying it to the cop as if to say, “What are you going to do? Arrest me for being happy?” So brilliant. A truly magical scene.
I'm singin' in the rain Just singin' in the rain What a glorious feeling I'm happy again. I'm laughing at clouds. So dark up above, The sun's in my heart And I'm ready for love. Let the stormy clouds chase. Everyone from the place Come on with the rain I've a smile on my face I walk down the lane With a happy refrain Just singin', singin' in the rain Dancin' in the rain la ri la la ri la, I'm happy again! I'm singin' and dancin' in the rain! (instrumental solo) Dancin' and singin' in the rain...
Why am I smiling and why do I sing? Why does December seem sunny as Spring? Why do I get up each morning to start Happy and head-up with joy in my heart? Why is each new task a trifle to do? Because I am living a life full of you!
What dark and difficult times? America is forging ahead into the unknown global elite wilderness. What's so bad about that? You'll have nothing and love it.
About 10 years ago his young wife was traveling the country presenting scenes from many of Gene's moves. She said he filmed this first in the rain however you could not hear his tapping because of the rain. So he waited until the next dry day and danced the exact same routine so his steps could be heard. AMAZING.
I searched for this song after waking up because I heard this in my dream... It was sung by a little girl and I forgot what happened but I remembered only this....I'm dancing in the rain.... It was magical and I'm happy that I found this masterpiece....Thank you, little girl of my dream!
@@Albanian_Accountant Maybe, yes. Just two or three weeks ago, I was tempted to enjoy the rain and I did. I was happy and jumping in joy bathing in the rain. I didn't realize that the little girl could be me until I read your comment.By the way, I'm 24 years old.
And he was sick as a dog when he performed this, but didn’t want to hold up the production and sang and danced his heart out here! Every time it rained and I was outdoors I danced on the curbs holding my umbrella aloft smiling and beaming like sunshine! God bless him!
There is an unusual charm in an old movie. You're watching. And there is joy in my soul, warmth and...love. It's a pity that such a movie is no longer being made. It's truly magical.

Yes. And the happiness in his voice : "and I'm rea-dy for love" ... singing, and dancing, can create some of this happiness. Many people who have grown up sitting in front of a computer or with a mobile phone need to discover this!
That was the moment he realized he was in love, and he couldn't contain his joy anymore. I've felt like this before and spent a long walk in the rain with this song in my head.
I am 34 years old, when it sang this song, no one in my family was even born yet, and years later, with the convenience of technology, I listen to this quality music as if they had made it yesterday, a very high quality and sweet video music, R.I.P Gene Kelly
Really, Well then from my family only my maternal grandfather and my paternal grandparents were alive and old enough to have watched it when it premiered. Now only my maternal grandfather is Alive but I don't know if he remembers it
Fun fact: this guy who sings is Gene Kelly, Gene Kelly was born on 1913, he made this song when he was 39 years old, he unfortunately died in 1996 at the age of 83
Nice one backgroundMASCAL , but could Gene Kelly be Mad Max? Maybe he could sing and dance his way of trouble in the wasteland. Maybe not You’ve got to balance these things out before you post outrageous comments
One time when I was young, a torrential summer downpour occurred, such that looking out our house's windows was like being in a car wash. I got excited and ran outside in shorts and bare feet. I never had any dancer in me, still don't, but I ran around the yard in circles with my arms outstretched, face to the sky and feeling the rain bathing me. Whenever I see this, I remember that happy moment, and feel Gene Kelly is expressing how I felt.
Back in the 1993 you could only dream of a mobile 📱 phone until 99 when I got my 1st mobile phone. Now in 2024 with smart phones you can watch old videos, amazing. 😅😊
Every time I watch this it breaks me out in goosebumps and sometimes in tears of joy. It's beautiful, iconic, unique and very special. I can't explain why it's special. It just is. Thank you Gene Kelly. This is one of the final movie clips I would like to see before I die.
@cathysies5751 At my funeral I would love to have Simon and Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence" played followed by Monty Python's "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" from their film "Life of Brian".
What an athlete! It's not easy to dance wet in the wet. He never got the credit he deserved for choreographing and directing so many films. Gone are the great musicals.
if you had to choose a "100 moments that define humanity", this scene could stand a good chance of being included. Beautifully choregraphed, beautifully shot, and shows you don't need CGI to make iconic cinematography.
My grandma showed me this when I was a kid and when it rained we’d actually go out in our rain gear and play in the rain and sing this song. I’ll always cherish this song ❤️
This movie was my Great-Grandmother's favorite movie, and she would always sing this song to me when I was a child. Now I'm entering my Junior year of High School. She passed away from Cancer two years ago. I wouldn't be where I am now without her. She was, and always will be, my favorite person. She never said a mean thing about anybody, and up until the end, when I had to see this energetic and loving woman frail and sickly in hospice, she never stopped smiling. I miss her more than I think I'll ever truly understand. I hope that in the afterlife, if one even exists, she's tapdancing there, happy.
I watched this randomly after not seeing the movie for a good 20 years. It has a different feel to it now. Such optimism, joy, and carefree sentiment. Reminds me so much of much simpler, more beautiful times.
Boy, is there any better display of euphoria? Gene Kelly in this number -- still and always -- warms my heart and makes me smile. Every movement, every step, every expression, he's simply perfect here. Joy joy that I can watch it whenever. Thanks for posting.
I was born in '52 and by the time that I was old enough to watch this movie I was also old enough to fall madly in love with Gene Kelly! He still makes my heart skip a beat. A bit scary at my age!! 💓
God bless you. You are the same age as my father. May both of you march on for many more years, may our good lord willing! Live long and prosper friend.
It's 7am. Cold, dark and raining outside. My mood was really, really bad. After a few views of this song I'm going to have a much better day! My parents weren't even born when this came out. Musicals and romance get on my nerves, not my cup of tea. There is some kind of magic here. Thanks for the upload!
One time while it was raining over here in Beautiful, Sunny California, my now 14 year old granddaughter (who was about 5 or 6 back then) & I had just gotten off a bus going home & it started raining down on us and we started jumping in puddles, laughing & dancing in it & it brought me Back to this very song & dance. When we got home, her mother (my only daughter) looked at us funny & asked what happened to us and why were we both drenched from head to toe & my granddaughter said to her MaMa, “MoM, grandma & I were singing, laughing & dancing in the rain ☔️ Now THAT was a Great day. Thank you Mr. Kelly ☔️🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼
I can’t believe how close to a century its been since that decade… Its gobsmacking and flabbergasting how quickly time flies, right? I was only born in 2005, I hardly have had but 18 years in this world, and yet it all flies by so fast without any regards… But hey, gotta enjoy it while it lasts, so go outside any day, rain or shine, and be happy. You might make someone else’s day so much brighter! Its the little things!
*Fun Fact:* when they shot this classic scene *Gene Kelly was running a fever of 103 Degrees* but *STILL* put on this magnificent Performance *Side Note:* his *LAST* Movie was *XANADU* with the late great *Olivia Newton-John*
Singing in the rain. Finding the joy even when the rain pours. Not just dealing with it but accepting it joyously and diving headlong into life, with all its trials and tribulations.
Love, this song. When, i was in hospital never stopped me smiling when it was hard. Looked, at my phone and listened to this song. The, timing at the end is pure talent. Some, patient's had dementia i asked the nurses permission to play Vera Lynn's famous song's which i love too. It, was a memory i will never forget a lovely lady sang " A, Nightingale sang in Berkley Square". Rembered, all the words apparently this happens with part of the brain that is not effected in some cases. A, nurse came in and wiped her tears away.( Amazing, talent and superb dancing. "Singing, in the Rain". What, a legacy to leave to see and listen. Often, sing it yes even when i am out walking in the rain.) Somebody, said to me one day. It, has stayed with me. Enjoy, every moment because hopefully not but you may get a sad time when you can't go out and walk. Alway's, remember that. Keep, smiling everyone. Just, wish the whole World' could be filled with kindness, happiness and peace! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
There's something so magical about these bygone songs, videos and artistes. Gene Kelly was and remains one of the brightest multi-talented stars in Hollywood.
Wonderful uplifting happy song...fabulous choreography amazingly performed by the fabulous ever- young Gene Kelly. On the rainiest darkest day, this song and movie clip never fails to make me smile...Thank you for the music, the dances and the laughter!!!!🥰🎶🌂☔😊
This song has been playing in my head for nigh on 70 years . Not every day , but it is always lurking around the corner , just waiting to catch me . ...
Puts a smile on my face everytime, hats of to gene Kelly for doing this whilst ill and having a high temperature. Some say he had to go hospital after doing this scene
My absolute favorite classic Hollywood scene. Gene Kelly with his extraordinary charisma and talent is always in my heart, because of this one special moment.
I’ve only came across homages to this iconic scene growing up. It wasn’t until I took a community college course did I find an excuse to watch the movie this famous scene came from. It was very jovial and made me see why it’s so well received and well remembered decades later.
To be honest I've never liked musicals, but yesterday I saw the rerun in 4k at the cinema, I went with my brother who doesn't like musicals either. I had always heard about the movie and how for many it is one of the few movies that can be classified as perfect, but I was still skeptical. To my surprise and my brother's, we loved it, seriously all the staging is incredible, it definitely shows why people say that the 50s were the golden age of Hollywood. I want to end by saying that if you have never seen it, and you have the opportunity to see it in a theater, do it, I assure you that you will not regret it.
It was kind-of improvised thing as script said that Alex sings something from musical while brutally beating the Writer and this was only such song Malcolm McDowell knew. It is damn good film from Kubrick and novel actually has way better ending.
When i was a child... i sang this song... dancing all arrround.. now i have a child... and we sing it and dance together..

You know what's really crazy about this movie? It was made in the 1950s but set in the 1920s. That's like a movie today being set in the 1990s. Perspective can alter so much. Makes me appreciate all the times I spent singing and dancing in the rain.
I don't think the analogy applies because both those periods were pre-transistor. Apart from smaller devices and flatter screens we have basically been treading water for 30 years.
What's your point? I think the difference between 1920 and the late 1950s is the same if not bigger than between 1990 and 2024.
Ah the 90s. The decade when the world slowly began to move from the Talkies to the incessant gab fest today.
I think the OP was suggesting looking back from 1950s to 1920s we would see big differences as we would today going back 30 years. I disagree because technologically in both periods things are roughly the same. 1980s to 1950s is a big change and that was exploited to the maximum for example in Back to the Future. @@antoinepetrov

I understand that Kelly was sick and with fever but he performed this anyway.
@@susansprouse1694 He probably had pneumonia.
@@theonecounttheonecount8477 he did it with like a 100 degree fever and did it in one take.
@@jango3221 He did this in one take?! Wow!!!
@@jango3221 It was not in one take. First one you couldn't hear his foot steps due go the rain so he reshot it so you could.
It's November 2024 who's watching this ?
@genesisluna3429. ALL OF US!!! LoL 😆😆😆❤
ME!
Me
Me 😍
Me, and i am 51
No words can express the beauty of this song, it brings so much joy to our lives ❤ one of Hollywood’s best performances.
if you had to choose a "100 moments that define humanity", this scene could stand a good chance of being included. Beautifully choregraphed, beautifully shot, and shows you don't need CGI to make iconic cinematography.
My grandma showed me this when I was a kid and when it rained we’d actually go out in our rain gear and play in the rain and sing this song. I’ll always cherish this song ❤️
I come here every once in a while. This was played at my grandmas funeral. I miss her so much
I'm sorry for your loss 😢
One of My Dad's favorite Movie's
R.I.P Dad
This brings back some great memories

This movie was my Great-Grandmother's favorite movie, and she would always sing this song to me when I was a child. Now I'm entering my Junior year of High School.
She passed away from Cancer two years ago. I wouldn't be where I am now without her. She was, and always will be, my favorite person. She never said a mean thing about anybody, and up until the end, when I had to see this energetic and loving woman frail and sickly in hospice, she never stopped smiling. I miss her more than I think I'll ever truly understand.
I hope that in the afterlife, if one even exists, she's tapdancing there, happy.
I live in NYC no cop would stop you for this, singing in the rain, keep on living joy to all!
I watched this randomly after not seeing the movie for a good 20 years.
It has a different feel to it now. Such optimism, joy, and carefree sentiment. Reminds me so much of much simpler, more beautiful times.
Boy, is there any better display of euphoria? Gene Kelly in this number -- still and always -- warms my heart and makes me smile. Every movement, every step, every expression, he's simply perfect here. Joy joy that I can watch it whenever. Thanks for posting.
There will never be another cinematic moment like this and there will NEVER be another era of musicals like the Golden Age in the 40s and 50s.
One of the best songs from one of the best musicals of all time.
I am looking from the Netherlands, brings me back to my childhood. Fantastic movie, good old nostalgic times.
70 years old song, I can still feel the rain listening to this. Extraordinary dance, music and sound effects.
When it was necessary to be talented for making movies. Wonderful scene, wonderful movie and wonderful Gene Kelly.
I don't know why, this just moved me to tears. It is beautiful.
Makes me feel good wonderful song wonderful actor ❣️
Simply iconic! The genuine joy of this is still radiant and timeless!
I was born in '52 and by the time that I was old enough to watch this movie I was also old enough to fall madly in love with Gene Kelly! He still makes my heart skip a beat. A bit scary at my age!! 💓
Makes sense! I was born in '81, a smile like that can melt any heart, any time, any age!
God bless you. You are the same age as my father. May both of you march on for many more years, may our good lord willing! Live long and prosper friend.
Everyone needs to skip occasionally... especially at our age.
I fell in love with him too. Me, born 1950
It's 7am. Cold, dark and raining outside. My mood was really, really bad. After a few views of this song I'm going to have a much better day! My parents weren't even born when this came out. Musicals and romance get on my nerves, not my cup of tea. There is some kind of magic here. Thanks for the upload!
I met gene kelly's wife 2 days ago and it made me feel so nostalgic i miss him.
One time while it was raining over here in Beautiful, Sunny California, my now 14 year old granddaughter (who was about 5 or 6 back then) & I had just gotten off a bus going home & it started raining down on us and we started jumping in puddles, laughing & dancing in it & it brought me Back to this very song & dance. When we got home, her mother (my only daughter) looked at us funny & asked what happened to us and why were we both drenched from head to toe & my granddaughter said to her MaMa, “MoM, grandma & I were singing, laughing & dancing in the rain ☔️ Now THAT was a Great day. Thank you Mr. Kelly ☔️🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼🥰👏🏼
Thank You, for telling us.
0:40 its 71 years and still iconic
That sheer joy of Kelly's performance brings tears to my eyes.
What a performance.....
A pure classic that will last long.
RIP. Gene Kelly.....
A l’époque où les films faisaient rêvés et mettaient de bonne humeur
So much fun watching the movies of yesteryear. I love these wonderful people entertaing me. THANK YOU!
I can’t believe how close to a century its been since that decade…
Its gobsmacking and flabbergasting how quickly time flies, right?
I was only born in 2005, I hardly have had but 18 years in this world, and yet it all flies by so fast without any regards…
But hey, gotta enjoy it while it lasts, so go outside any day, rain or shine, and be happy. You might make someone else’s day so much brighter! Its the little things!
I was born in 2005 too
Perfecto!!! Always my best song from musicals and Kelly the best dancer ❤
*Fun Fact:* when they shot this classic scene *Gene Kelly was running a fever of 103 Degrees* but *STILL* put on this magnificent Performance
*Side Note:* his *LAST* Movie was *XANADU* with the late great *Olivia Newton-John*
I would like to know how many takes I took. My bet would be 3 .
@@marklassanske2716Upon a quick google search, it doesn’t say how many takes specifically, but the shoot for this scene took two or three days.
That’s the sign of a true professional, even though he was very sick he still gave his all
I love this movie and in love with this song and love the way he dance 💖☔
Mind to share thr Movie name?
@@summerrain8403 Singin' in the Rain
I would watch this with my grandma and we would have some type of treat. 😁😁😁😁 Good memories
Herrlich, möchte gleich mittanzen. Im nächsten Regen mach ich das trotz meiner 80 Jahre❤
He's just a happy guy doing his own thing, enjoying the moment, just existing, I want that
Singing in the rain. Finding the joy even when the rain pours. Not just dealing with it but accepting it joyously and diving headlong into life, with all its trials and tribulations.
One of the greatest smiles ever.... ❤
Love, this song. When, i was in hospital never stopped me smiling when it was hard. Looked, at my phone and listened to this song. The, timing at the end is pure talent. Some, patient's had dementia i asked the nurses permission to play Vera Lynn's famous song's which i love too. It, was a memory i will never forget a lovely lady sang " A, Nightingale sang in Berkley Square". Rembered, all the words apparently this happens with part of the brain that is not effected in some cases. A, nurse came in and wiped her tears away.( Amazing, talent and superb dancing. "Singing, in the Rain". What, a legacy to leave to see and listen. Often, sing it yes even when i am out walking in the rain.) Somebody, said to me one day. It, has stayed with me. Enjoy, every moment because hopefully not but you may get a sad time when you can't go out and walk. Alway's, remember that. Keep, smiling everyone. Just, wish the whole World' could be filled with kindness, happiness and peace! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
There's something so magical about these bygone songs, videos and artistes. Gene Kelly was and remains one of the brightest multi-talented stars in Hollywood.
THE MOST WONDERFUL DANCE ROUTINE IN A MOVIE OF ALL TIME! MR. KELLY ...G O A T
One of the greatest performances of all time.
He gave the umbrella to someone at the end. Thats very kind
I've never heard such a happy song in my life.😀
Wonderful uplifting happy song...fabulous choreography amazingly performed by the fabulous ever- young Gene Kelly. On the rainiest darkest day, this song and movie clip never fails to make me smile...Thank you for the music, the dances and the laughter!!!!🥰🎶🌂☔😊
My grandma used to play this video for me and my brother. Now after 5 years since her death this brings back sweet memories
Four minutes of PURE JOY.
The vibe is AMAZING! I LOVE THAT SONG!!!!!
I wish they would make more musicals! Clean and fun!
i wish they would too. the old music is the good stuff
I remember this so well . I loved it and have thought about it so many times.
I wish so much too.
Yes clean. There were no drive byes in that movie
Encanto is clean and fun
This song has been playing in my head for nigh on 70 years . Not every day , but it is always lurking around the corner , just waiting to catch me . ...
When I was a child use to dance it with my young parents and my brother coming home❤😂 in Rome, Italy. Still love this song😊
Gene Kelly was magical. Singing in the rain was one of the most first and beautiful songs heard by man!
Some of my greatest childhood memories consisted of watching old musicals like this!! 💘 😊 🎶 😍 ☁
Didn't see this film fully until last year. Still good at nearly 70 years old
Me not until 2014
And to think that this scene what filmed in one take only and with Gene Kelly running a high fever! The mark of his greatness.
Puts a smile on my face everytime, hats of to gene Kelly for doing this whilst ill and having a high temperature. Some say he had to go hospital after doing this scene
This puts a smile on my face. 😊
This is June 26, 2024. I am watching this video.
October 23,2024. I'm doing the same
My absolute favorite classic Hollywood scene. Gene Kelly with his extraordinary charisma and talent is always in my heart, because of this one special moment.
I’ve only came across homages to this iconic scene growing up. It wasn’t until I took a community college course did I find an excuse to watch the movie this famous scene came from. It was very jovial and made me see why it’s so well received and well remembered decades later.
One of my favorite films! But also Babylon brought me to rewatch this scene
read Olga's lips
@@massivedick-dick what did bro do to you
He danced as easily as he smiled. 🥰❤
To be honest I've never liked musicals, but yesterday I saw the rerun in 4k at the cinema, I went with my brother who doesn't like musicals either. I had always heard about the movie and how for many it is one of the few movies that can be classified as perfect, but I was still skeptical. To my surprise and my brother's, we loved it, seriously all the staging is incredible, it definitely shows why people say that the 50s were the golden age of Hollywood. I want to end by saying that if you have never seen it, and you have the opportunity to see it in a theater, do it, I assure you that you will not regret it.
Aww he had a high fever while filming this. But he did AWESOME
I heard Gene Kelly did this performance with one take. I sure wouldn't want to have a second!
Only Stanley Kubrick can make such a beautiful song so dark.
Mechanic orange ?
@@MarwanJamal-bt5qd a clockwork orange.
@@JeffBird86 sorry, in french is "orange mécanique" 😉
It was kind-of improvised thing as script said that Alex sings something from musical while brutally beating the Writer and this was only such song Malcolm McDowell knew. It is damn good film from Kubrick and novel actually has way better ending.
@@MarwanJamal-bt5qd, In portuguese too, “Laranja Mecânica”.
I love it when actors have extremely animated movements, rare thing to see really
