"Singin' in the Rain".

OK, girls and boys, back to the 20s (the 1920s, that is!): It was a stormy day in 1929 when composer Arthur Freed was staring out the front window of his Seattle sheet music shop and happened to see a drenched man merrily dancing down the street. This inspired him, along with his writing partner Nacio Herb Brown, to pen this timeless pop/jazz classic. Signals the transition from silent films to "talkies" in Hollywood. It became extremely popular as the showstopper of the 1952 film by the same name, where the late great Gene Kelly sang and danced to it while splashing through puddles. Kelly had a severe cold during the two days of filming the scene, with a fever up to 103 (!). #3 on AFI's Best Movie Songs of All Time. It became public domain early this year. Covered by, among many others, Durante, Garland, Martin, Crosby, Clooney and Sammy Davis, Jr. Part of the "A Clockwork Orange" soundtrack. Song? Answer: "Singin' in the Rain". They just don't make 'em like that anymore! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swloMVFALXw&list=RDswloMVFALXw&start_radio=1
