I feel really bad for the guy who posted this. Everytime he sees a new reply, he gets met with....THIS CRAP. lol

anyways, I tried looking myself and couldn't find anything. I am betting that it is a demo for an artist that was never released. It's a pretty decent quality song which surprises me.

I mean this part of the forum is a dump site. Almost never does anyone know that tune, both because of a lack of information given to us and because what are the chances we'll just so happen to know some random song. And almost never when someone posts a query here do they have any interest in joining the forum, or even thanking anybody if we do happen to help them.

So why not just **** around? Doesn't hurt us and we're probably not gonna help them.

You feel bad for someone who owns a Kenwood stereo cassette deck KX-1030 with three ferrite heads, full auto shut off, bias controls and a Double Dolby System. Feel bad? you should feel jealous.

It's a beautiful set up isn't it? I DO feel jealous.

To be fair, this guy is better than most. He actually has a recording of the song, rather than a three-second snippet taped in a restaurant over the sounds of voices and chinking* glasses and plates, or the kind of description we're used to - "90s, maybe 2000, girl singer, goes LA LA LA LA, might be electronic, not sure".

And as it goes, some of us do help. I recently lent my assistance to a guy who was trying to identify, of all things, civil war era music, and I got a few of the tracks for him but not them all. I try to help when I can, as long as the information is there.

You just **** with people cos you're a ****.

* Jesus H Christ! Chink is a banned word????

Not you, dumbass. It's before "glasses" a few lines above. The word they make when they tip off each other. Yes yes, clink would have done just as well but the point I'm making is that the word seems to be banned because it's seen as an ethnic slur, which is fine, but Dickens would never have approved.

I called you a cunt, don't worry. No need for the libel case.

I know. It's just annoying when it has other uses which have nothing to do with ethnic slurs and you can't use it. ***** of light. ***** in the armour. Stupid slant-eyed... oh no wait, that is one.
