Jarred Taylor I remember something like that too- I tried finding this song a few years back after remembering listening to it on the radio, and when I only found the one with Jay-Z I got so confused and thought "what the fuck? I don't remember this at all??"
I never remembered Jay-Z in this, then one day I decide to listen to this song and I wasn't able to find it without him until like 4 years later...fucking Jay-Z get out of this song.
Is this a new mandela effect?? I’ve been thinking the same damn thing. Umbrella was one of my favorite songs as a child yet i have no recollection of jay z ever being in the song
alfredagain Well some Candy have edible rappers you just need to remove the ones that aren't edible *cough .lil' Wayne, Wocka Flocka, Wiz Khalifa, all those other rappers no one cares about*
This is how it's meant to be I like hip hop but a have a double standard when it comes to songs, I don't mind singing in the chorus for a rap song but I can't stand a rap verse in a pop song
This is all about her and her voice without the interjection of the money hungry no talent bums that are trying to make a buck off of her talent......Keep singing girl!!!
You have my heart And we'll never be worlds apart May be in magazines But you'll still be my star Baby cause in the dark You can't see shiny cars And that's when you need me there With you I'll always share Because when the sun shines, we’ll shine together Told you I'll be here forever Said I'll always be a friend Took an oath I'm stick it out till the end Now that it's raining more than ever Know that we'll still have each other You can stand under my umbrella You can stand under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella These fancy things, will never come in between You're part of my entity, here for infinity When the war has took it's part When the world has dealt it's cards If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart Because when the sun shines, we’ll shine together Told you I'll be here forever Said I'll always be a friend Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end Now that it's raining more than ever Know that we'll still have each other You can stand under my umbrella You can stand under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella You can run into my arms It's ok don't be alarmed Come here to me There's no distance in between our love So go on and let the rain pour I'll be all you need and more Because, when the sun shines, we’ll shine together Told you I'll be here forever Said I'll always be a friend Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end Now that it's raining more than ever Know that we'll still have each other You can stand under my umbrella You can stand under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella Under my umbrella It's raining Oh baby it's raining Baby come here to me Come here to me It's raining Oh baby it's raining
One totally mainstream song that is actually good here. Very nice plain verse with a smooth engaging catchy chorus, not overdone and well constructed. She's got a very nice voice and doesn't overdo it. Just the "ela, ela, ela, eh eh eh" is a very cheap post-chorus part, but they avoid all the radio clichés and it's too bad there aren't more like this.

I remember hearing the Jay-Z-less version of this song on 106.1 BLI back when the song first dropped. I thought it was the Mandela Effect but this now this confirms it!
IT'S ANNOYING AND STUPID WITH JAYZ!!!!! There, I just had to spit my opinion out. That's just MY opinion. Not here to offend anyone. Thank God for this version.......
I remember watching The Tonight show and wondering where the bleep they dug up their guest performers. Then one night the best talent they hosted came on: Rihanna
Never really cared for this song alway passed it up on the radio. then it played i was high so i just left it on and these words just flew into me with so much emotion
Heavenly Father, it's time for me to work with your hand. Close mine forge of unholy understanding, and gather together the elect. You have been my help. I love your salvation, and thank you for it. In your name, amen.
Am I the only one who thinks this song is better without JayZ?
but i haven't listened to All Time Low's version, but i will.
I must say the do sing it better :}
+The Reaper Honey Sendai Way better without him...
+The Reaper Honey Senpai Worlds better.
no

Isn't it vice versa? Solo song first then with Jay-Z? I had no idea about version with Jay-Z and i don't like it anyway.
I didn't know until yesterday the original had jayz. I hated it immediately, glad I found this.
No you are wrong there
Maybe 80/19/1...
I'm the 1% too lmao
The original version Rihanna singing it solo, simply the best...period!!!

why every video have the rap part now?i never remember it have the rap part before
Can’t find it anywhere
Rt 🎉
@@muhdharizhilmi7450me too…😮
Now this is how I remember the song!
you can sing it when you are at home or on your way to anywhere
It's so sad that this version isn't on spotify, cuz this version is wayyy better in my opinion
I'm pretty sure it is, I just dont know which album this is from.
I don’t think it’s on Spotify
it's not at least I couldn't find it, that's why im here@@slugworth3111
It's funny how you remove Jay-Z's verse and nothing of value is lost. I always thought that his verse was pointless.
Rappers like Jay-Z add nothing of value. One day you will wake up.
I swear this song first came out without him in it but I might be going crazy...
Jarred Taylor I remember something like that too- I tried finding this song a few years back after remembering listening to it on the radio, and when I only found the one with Jay-Z I got so confused and thought "what the fuck? I don't remember this at all??"
@@jtjt1836 a lot of radio stations cut it out cause it made the song too long, i believe they sped up the song a tad as well
Back in 2007 I never heard Jay Z's voice in this song, I used to watch MTV back then, when it was a music channel
I never remembered Jay-Z in this, then one day I decide to listen to this song and I wasn't able to find it without him until like 4 years later...fucking Jay-Z get out of this song.
xskugga same
Same here
SAME I HEArd it what i was little and i only remember the umbrella part, never knew there was rapping in it
i thought it was just me.what happen actually🤔
Is this a new mandela effect?? I’ve been thinking the same damn thing. Umbrella was one of my favorite songs as a child yet i have no recollection of jay z ever being in the song
I'm 45 years old, and this is my favourite song of all time, quite a feat given the number of songs I've heard over the years
No offense, but you must have really wasted those 45/46 years if this is the best song you've ever heard

Music is like candy, you need to remove the wrappers to enjoy it.
Lol ...so true!
PREACH
That is one the best comments ive ever read. I did not expect to see anything like your comment today. Thank you.
This is an underappreciated gem.
Lol so true
Best version.

+Brandon Togans J Cole has an Edible Wrapper (Holy shit that sounds so wrong)
Biggie 1 year apart
You could've made a pun there! XD "wrappers - rappers"
Without JayZ it sounds so much better! x.x
Steve I didn't know you liked Rihanna.
14 years later and this is still at the top of my old 2005 playlist (hello from 2021)
Still better without JayZ! Love Rihanna's voice ♥
Now whenever I listen to this song I think of Tom Holland 😂
Same lol, I always picture him sauntering out on stage swinging that umbrella lol
You sound like his girlfriend.
You're not the only one, Ren P. 😂
Me too 😂😂😂😂😂
Same lol
So much better. I can't stand JayZ's awful rapping at the beginning. Spoils an otherwise beautiful song!
hahaha, ikr.
thats not true jk it is
bruh... awful? you might think it doesn't fit but it wasn't bad
This original version is so good. We all have those friends who are our Umbrellas. They are important folks, make sure they know that.
finally a solo version thanks
anyone else feel like JayZ completely just Kanyes the version he's in?
+Rob Sturn (MySuicidalGhost)
what?
yea I'm assuming your referring to et by katy perry
Moataz Abdelhalim lmao i guess xD
+Rob Sturn (MySuicidalGhost) because people said that Kanye ruined e.t. and that katy perry was fine by herself
Moataz Abdelhalim agreed
This is how it's meant to be
I like hip hop but a have a double standard when it comes to songs, I don't mind singing in the chorus for a rap song but I can't stand a rap verse in a pop song
Same
Doubly agreed
ReanimatedCheese Even if its TLC?
Jodi Watley's "Friends" with Rakim. Then again, I'm from the Golden Era.
its pc culture that demanded rap
This is great! I just love her voice!
This is all about her and her voice without the interjection of the money hungry no talent bums that are trying to make a buck off of her talent......Keep singing girl!!!
lol that's kinda funny.
That money hungry no talent bum is her boss so he can hop on her track if wants to nothing else said
agreed.
Love Riri solo versions.
Hate when the female artists think they "need" to have a male rapper.
Love this!!
I don't think her mindset was that she needed a male artist involved with her song.
I dont have anything against Jay Z but he just doesnt belong in this song it just doesnt sound right...reply if you agree.
Yes, he makes this song weird. I prefer the Rihanna-solo version.
Yep
My sentiments exactly
This song I better without him
I agree.
It is better
who still listens to this at the end of 2020 is making right choices for 2021!!
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because when the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'm stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because when the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
You can run into my arms
It's ok don't be alarmed
Come here to me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because, when the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
Under my umbrella
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining
Baby come here to me
Come here to me
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining
Thank you for posting this.
It sounds like she's saying "come into me" not "come here to me" near the end of the song.
Camila Arzel ♥️♥️♥️
There's an extra line at the end of the song, but it's very hard to hear.
"You can always come here to me."
Thanks
What about the Ella Ella Ella eh eh eh

Every song's better without Jay-Z
alfredagain LMAOOO
Jay-z fucking sucks
alfredagain BURN!
alfredagain you high
Yup exactly
better without rap
Well that's cuz jay-z fucking sucks
srk MUHAMMED
I love her voice.
I like how all comments are roasting Jay Z but seriously this song is lot better without him 😝
Who ever made this version, it’s definitely going to heaven !
I love this song I just didn't like the rapping. She has a beautiful and very strong voice!
+bec R (limegreendolphin) the rapping was amazing, so was Rihanna's voice. If it wasn't for Jay this song wouldn't exist.
+Joker Comments no one asked you
smokeweedeverydayx42 just saying my opinion. It's fine if you don't agree.
Joker Comments Then how come JayZ dosent have any hits now
becks unicorn you right girl
Never heard this until I found a mix of it with Eurythmics "Here Comes The Rain Again".
After that, I fell in love with it.
Thanks for the upload!!
Mum used to love this long time ago, but I dont remember JayZ being in it..
neither do I
Sooooooo much better without jay-z 👍🏻
I'm also not a rap fan. I love it when singers sing!
Voting for Bill Weld - Republican Primary than you haven’t heard real rap yet.

Vintage Funk Kit 03

Good god Jay Z ruins the song for me
I'm not a fan of her but DAMN this song is amazing...
Umbrella is so much better and slay without Jay Z :)
ahhhhh love this classic
I remember watching The Tonight show and wondering where the bleep they dug up their guest performers. Then one night the best talent they hosted came on: Rihanna
This was one of my favorite songs to cycle to.
I like this better than the Jay-z one, even she seems to sing it better on the solo version.
Thank you for this version, I know it takes some time to make, whether its 5 or 100 minutes. I appreciate it if that means anything at all.
I'm gonna tell my kids that this is the original version
Takes me back to the good ol days 😭
am i the only one that doesn't remember jayz being in the song
I always prefered this version.
thank you!
I like her lyrics beautiful.
I love Rihanna she is a roll model to me! Her and my mom! She has a great voice
i think this song means that she will protect her speacial person fron any harm.... i luv dis song
Thanks for this. Love Rihanna but f****kin despise Jay-Z and other (c)rap clowns
+Nuclearcx
There's a reason the word 'crap' has 'rap' in it.
Haha won’t be saying that nowadays
Never really cared for this song alway passed it up on the radio. then it played i was high so i just left it on and these words just flew into me with so much emotion
this song is so much without jay-z!
Finally found the version without Jay Z. It sound SO MUCH BETTER!!!!
Who else is here because of Tom Holland, can't get this song out of their head, and everytime you listen to it you think Tom Holland's performance
Pensé que la había soñando,pero está es la que yo escuché de joven , ese jz no salía.
Beatidul song Rihanna 😉💮🌸
Esta version sonaba en la radio
If it rains outside and you don’t sing this I can’t trust you
now is good
I completely agree with you!
This version is much more beautiful than the publicly ublished one.
