The title comes from a quote in "Blade Runner" (1982). Roy, the replicant (artificial human) says "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.".

@Alieno That's like the best part of the movie. More Human Than Human by White Zombie is about Blade Runner too.

@lpr*587 More than being ABOUT Blade Runner both songs reference it. I think it's because it made a huge impact on anyone (especially children) who watched it back in the eighties. It has an eerie dystopian feel hard to match.

@lpr*587 But I didn't know about More Human than Human. Thanks for the info. :)
