It started raining not long after I started this video, so yeah, there's rain noise in the background. You're in for a treat! It's 100% authentic, cage-free, free-range, organic rain! Plus, if your hearing is really good, you'll hear some birds come out of nowhere and burst into song later on. They are occasionally drowned out by a moving van going up and down the street because apparently they couldn't find the house they were looking for. :(
To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).
To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
