Okay, a stretch for HN, but: singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada named an album released last year Vendrán Suaves Lluvias (meaning There Will Come Soft Rains). She talked about how she and her brother read The Martian Chronicles as kids and she remembered the Sara Teasdale poem quoted at the end. She said she composed the songs at a difficult time in her life and, I guess, something about that image in the story (and the poem in it) resonated then.
For anyone curious, there's a Tiny Desk Concert of songs from the album at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9PoZ0Vcb_s and an interview, in English, at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcQbB7Dc83U
Does Tiny Desk have the best sound engineers or what ?
Tiny Desk, along with KEXP, are absolutely brilliant at what they do.
An emphatic yes. It's a strange coincidence that I wanted to name KEXP too in my previous comment.
London Grammar @ KEXP ranks pretty high.
They constantly blow my mind, especially with the more recent Napalm Death tiny desk concert.
Thank you very much for making me aware of this wonderful artist.
Reminded me of how deadmau5 named his track The Veldt after the homonymous story by Ray Bradbury.
And if your in the mood for a hard rain there is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvZmrygK3F0&t=3790s
Probably the best cover.
An obligatory mention, also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEtQfqpKi1I
Thank you. Had not heard this one before.
