The spare words and the catchy, harmonic chorus send me every time and I love to sing along with it. Being from Kansas and a KU grad, I'm heartened to know it's by The Jayhawks and will be the first album of theirs I ever. buy This song makes me cry | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Save It For A Rainy Day performed by Jayhawks This song is so beautiful, man. Definitely 70s homage material...I still can't quite pinpoint the influence...kinda like their cover of "Bad Time" (Grand Funk)...with Crosby and Nash backups on the chorus... But mostly solid Jayhawks with Gary Louris' wondrous voice and the walk-on solo in the break...
