It's Raining Men was released in 1982 by American duo The Weather Girls and written by Paul Jabara and Paul Shaffer. The disco hit became a lasting pop culture staple, later covered by Geri Halliwell in 2001 for Bridget Jones's Diary and widely used in films, television and drag performances. Online, short excerpts of the chorus became popular as donation alerts and meme edits, where the literal lyric is matched to anything falling from above. Its familiarity and exaggerated joy keep it in circulation decades after release.

A short clip of the It's Raining Men chorus used as a Twitch donation sound, played for funny drops, celebrations and over the top entrances.
This clip cuts straight to the big, joyful chorus of It's Raining Men, with bright disco production, pounding piano and powerful female vocals singing the hook at full energy. There is no build up, just the instantly recognisable refrain delivered like a celebration. It sounds camp, triumphant and deliberately over the top, which is why a normal moment suddenly feels like a grand entrance or a windfall. Paired with falling objects, characters or donations on screen, the contrast between the epic vocal delivery and the silly visual is what makes it land as a joke.
