When I first heard this song, the sound was familiar but I'm sure I've never heard it before. The artist that popped into my head a moment ago was The Church. I don't know too many of their songs, but this sounds similar to the ones I do know. I'm looking up lyrics now to see if I can find it. Regardless of who sang it, I'm anxious to learn the identity. I can see we probably won't be depending on the remarkable Paul Miceli for this one, though.
Thanks for all your help on this fantastic web site!

Hello James, Thanks for the kind words. This song is driving me nuts! I remember it perfectly, I may even have it but I can't put an artist or a band to it. I'll go through my Church cds but I don't think it's them. His voice is so similar to allot of artists from the 80s. This is why it's going to be difficult. Thanks for helping out. Paul.

Looks like someone else is looking for this song: people.freenet.de/DeDiniDevil/wanted.htm It does sound very familiar...I wish I could help you more. Paul, I've got to say that you are amazing at this "Name that Tune". I am in awe at all of your identifications. Hopefully, someone else will be able to ID this one.

Hi TP,
Thanks for the complement.
That is the the site where I found the song. I have been going through my cds looking for it this whole week, and have had no luck. I think it may be a band/artist, that we all know,but just cant figure it out. I will let you guys know, if I find it.
Thanks again,
Paul

It sure sounds like The The to me!
From Gina, 12/2/2002 9:27:14 AM:
It does sound a lot like "Under the Milky Way", so I agree it sounds like the Church too.

How about The Wake...I only have one of their albums, so I'm not sure of their other stuff??!!
From Joseph, 12/12/2002 2:29:23 PM:
I concur with The The....

Hmmmm could it be the band Furniture?
From Sebastian, 2/2/2003 3:09:14 AM:
I just went through Furniture's entire body of lyrics and nothing came close, sadly.
It really *does* sound like either The The or the Church, but I think were it either one of those bands Paul would have most likely spotted it.
I've done a few lyrics searches on both and didn't find anything that matched either.
And so we wait.

Hi Again Sebastian,
I'm Still trying to find some info on this song,but no luck.
The search goes on.
Cheers,
Paul

I still hear The Church and not Matt Johnson of The The. I found a Ukrainian website(www.lyrics.net.ua) that had the lyrics to all the songs of one of the Church band member's solo efforts (I wish I could remember who that was -- it was a month ago). I couldn't find the Unknown Song lyrics in any of them. I didn't check out the other band members.
I hope someone is able to identify this great song. I see that it is at the bottom of the list and ready to be purged.
By the way, that Ukrainian web site was impressive!
