    Help me name the song... :-(

    Hi,

    Has anyone heard a song on the radio recently that sounds like Dire Straits meets Razorlight, I know its vague but its driving me mad.

    Cheers

    Can you at least provide some of the lyrics? That'd help a great deal

    And no, dum dum dumdumdumdum doesn't help much

    (\___/) (\___/) (\___/) (\___/) (\___/) (\___/) (\___/)
    (='.'=) (='.'=) (='.'=) (='.'=) (='.'=) (='.'=) (='.'=)
    (")_(") (")_(") (")_(") (")_(") (")_(") (")_(") (")_(")


    This is bunny and friends. He is fed up waiting for everyone to help him out, and decided to help himself instead!

    Re: Help me name the song... :-(

    What station?

    If it's on the BBC, you should be able to look up the track listing for each show on their website. Then you can work it out by what was played before or after it. Then try searching on YouTube for the ones you don't recognize or you think might be it.

    Oh, and "sounds like Dire Straits meets Razorlight" sounds like a complete load of trash to me

    Off the top of my head though, could it be The Airborne Toxic Event? A couple of their tracks sound a bit like Razorlight... just better.

    Hum it in to a microphone or something and upload it so anyone who knows the song might recognise it.

    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
