Description: A collaboration between Jermaine Jackson of the famed Jackson family and actress-singer Pia Zadora, When the Rain Begins to Fall (1984) reflects the glossy, synth-heavy production style of mid-80s pop. Originally tied to the sci-fi musical film Voyage of the Rock Aliens, the single became a surprise international hit, especially in Europe, where it topped charts in Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. The track captures the era’s fascination with crossover projects blending cinema, MTV visuals, and radio-ready hooks, standing as a time capsule of 80s pop experimentation. For collectors, the promotional pressing offers both rarity and a snapshot of the global reach of American pop during the decade.
