Who sings the song in the Chevy Traverse commercial?


Search
: it's raining but i love the rain

Why: I always want the lyrics to be "I walk the line."

Answer: A band called The Real Tuesday Weld! It's called "I Love the Rain." Buy it here on iTunes - the one you want is on the album Where Psyche Meets Cupid.
Lyrics go like:
It's raining
It's pouring
But I ain't complaining
'Cause I love the rain

The More You Know: Do you know who Tuesday Weld is? She is kind of the only reason I bothered to blog this. I first Googled her after I saw Once Upon a Time in America - one of my favorite movies ever - but I later saw her play jaded Maria in the adaptation of Joan Didion's Play It As It Lays, which is a pretty good book that I had to read for grad school. She was also in a movie called I Walk the Line. WHAT!
She was born Aug. 27, 1943, which was exactly 4 years before my dad's birthday.
