"'Come In Out of the Rain'" is a song by American R&B singer Wendy Moten, written by Ernest Williamson, Curtiss Boone, and Nikos Lyras, who also produced the song. The song was released as the second single from Moten's self-titled debut album in 1992. One of the tracks on the British and Australian CD singles, "Step by Step", was released as Moten's debut single.
A soul ballad, "Come In Out of the Rain" received positive reviews from music critics and became Moten's most successful hit, peaking at number 55 on the US 'Billboard' Hot 100 and number 46 on the Canadian 'RPM' Top Singles chart. In 1994, the song was released in Europe and Australia, reaching the top 10 in Iceland and the United Kingdom. Despite the song's success, Moten would release only one more successful album before being dropped by Capitol Records.
Critical reception
Chris Rizik of 'Soultracks' gave the song a positive review, calling it "beautiful" and comparing it to ballads by fellow American R&B artist Whitney Houston.
