Help Me Name That Song!

[jkukowsk]

Alright, it was a tad loud at the pizza parlor tonight and I couldn't hear much of the song, but this is what I know. It's an older song, a guy or group of guys sing it and the lyrics sounded like they went "floooww to the river".

 

[TheVrolok]

Google it and that's about the best I can do.

 

[UglyCasanova]

Pachelbel - Canon

[jkukowsk]

TheVrolok, I tried googling it to every single thing I could think of the lyrics to be, but no luck.

dparker, That's too old.

Annie Lennox?

LeStEr, I'd guess from the 60's to the 80's.

Awesome song, and I thought that at first, but theres no group of guys sining in that. Check it out though, as I may be wrong, and my cds are in my car so I cant check it at the moment.

 

[jkukowsk]

I know that song, and that's not it.

Anymore guesses?

 

[stalecam]

was it pop, metal, dance, slow, fast? i need something to work with.

 

[BCskunk]

50 cent - wankska

 

[KeyserSoze]

Yeah, give us more details. I've seen many of these threads end up successful, and many go bad

At this rate, it's the latter

More details!

Umm.. Talking heads = 6 guys, 3 girls IIRC. Lead vocals = guy.

The Bobs - Rainbird?

You can hear me in the early hours
Drumming on the screens
You can dance and run in summer showers
I'm feeding the greens
You'll laugh in a child-like way
When you water... every other day

I want to be -- your Rainbird

Water is life and I am the giver
Hose down the driveway, flow to the river

I can whisper in the night
In your flower bed
You can mow, I'll be all right
I've got a pop-up head
Snow-melt will be the source
Turning the desert... into a golf course

I want to be -- your Rainbird

Oh... water is life and I am the giver
Hose down the driveway, flow to the river
Thunder or lightning -- no precipitation
Changing the climate -- drip irrigation

I want to be -- your Rainbird
I want to be -- your Rainbird
