    Rainbow (Thai: เรนโบว์) were a Thai pop band active from the 1980s to the early 1990s.

    History overview[edit]

    Early and stardom[edit]

    Rainbow was planted in 1985 by gathering some members from Inthanin (อินทนิล), the first band under RS. The lead vocalist Peerapong "Tom" Polchana was also one of Inthanin's musicians.

    The name Rainbow comes from Rainbow, the British rock band, which Polchana favours guitarist Ritchie Blackmore.

    When the first album was released, the band has not yet achieved success. They achieved success with their second album Kwam Nai Jai. It rose to #1 on charts throughout the northeast and nationwide incredibly.[1]

    Their popular songs include Kwam Nai Jai (ความในใจ, "inwardness"), Jod Mai Chabab Sud Thai (จดหมายฉบับสุดท้าย, "the last letter"), Young Wang (ยังหวัง, "still hope"), Yak Hai Ru Jai (อยากให้รู้ใจ, "I want you to know my heart"), Tang Chiwit (ทั้งชีวิต, "all my life"), Tao Nan Ko Pho (เท่านั้นก็พอ, "that's enough"), Kho Kae Kid Tueng (ขอแค่คิดถึง, "just miss you"), Jai Diao (ใจเดียว, "single-minded"), Sanya Jai (สัญญาใจ, "promise the heart"), etc.

    Rainbow's well-known prominent point is the voice of lead vocalist, Polchana, which is sweet and unchanged even after many years have passed.[2]

    Many of the band's famous songs are low-tempo songs with Chinese melodies, following the trend of Chinese pop culture that was popular in Thailand at that time i.e. martial arts television series.[2]

    After releasing eight studio albums and six–seven special albums, including compilation albums as well. The members had reached saturation point. Therefore, ended the band for good.[1]

    Reunion[edit]

    In October 2023, Rainbow had reunion and releasing new single for the first time in 30 years Yak Krasip Wa Rak Ter (อยากกระซิบว่า...รักเธอ, "I want to whisper that...I love you") under ONCEALL MUSIC, a new label that the band manage themselves.[3]
