“Weather With You” by Crowded House is a song about carrying your own emotional climate wherever you go, not a literal forecast. The track, released in 1991, uses weather as a metaphor for personal baggage and shared experience, and its enduring popularity means you’ll hear it on Australian radio year-round.
What is the meaning behind “Weather With You”?
The song’s lyrics, written by Neil Finn and Tim Finn, suggest that your internal state—your “weather”—travels with you regardless of your physical location. Lines like “everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you” point to the idea that mood and perspective are portable. It’s less about rain or shine and more about the emotional atmosphere you bring to a place or relationship.
When was “Weather With You” released and how did it perform?
Crowded House released “Weather With You” as the lead single from their third studio album, *Woodface*, in 1991. It became one of their biggest hits, reaching number one in Australia and the top ten in several other countries. The song’s warm, jangly production and relatable hook have made it a staple of Australian classic rock radio.
What are the chords for “Weather With You”?
The main progression uses open chords in standard tuning: G, C, D, and Em. The verse and chorus follow a similar pattern, making it a straightforward song for beginner to intermediate guitarists to learn.
Is “Weather With You” about a specific place?
No, the song is not about a particular city or town. The “weather” is a metaphor for emotional state. The music video was filmed in Sydney, but the lyrics are universal.
What year did “Weather With You” come out?
The single was released in November 1991 in Australia and early 1992 internationally. It peaked on the ARIA charts in February 1992.
