SWV fails for the simple fact that Coko has those ghetto mile long claws.

Did you know that this song was based on a jazz song, by a bassist named Jaco. He played with Weather Report and wrote a song for a girl that he knew. He died a few years ago, from a beating he took. SWV's producer heard the song and used it for "Rain". I like SWV's version better.

although I liked the song, something about it annoyed me despite being pretty. I think a part of me knew it was a remake when it came out cause it sounded so old school to met then

In fact, looking back on the 90's, it was like another 80's with all that sampling.

Different song.

To answer ur question, I like Vesta's vocal performance, but I prefer SWV.
