I realize mashups are so 2003, but I had to share in honor of the dark skies and rain in the North Texas area today.

From Bay Area studio wizard Party Ben comes this cheery combination of 1984’s “Tenderness” by General Public (which featured former members of the English Beat and Dexy’s Midnight Runners) with the vocals from last year’s Rihanna megahit “Umbrella”. Consider it a ray of sunshine amidst the gloom.
