Any one know what song I'm talking about?
« on: September 14, 2003, 11:48:04 AM »
There is this song that I keep hearing parts of on the radio but  I never catch the name of the artist.  I can't even guess at the lyrics.  I do know that it's being played on rock stations and it a male artist.  The song has a slow tempo with a sax break about halfway through the song.  I thought I heard the name jackson once but still am not having any luck.  Please help, It's driving me crazy.

Yeah I know that song. It kinda reminds me of that song a few years ago by some guy. :rolleyes:

I don't know why, but I think of Take Me Home Tonight by Eddie Money :confused:

Tina Turner's sax player had a song on "The Lost Boys" soundtrack called either "I Believe" or "I Still Believe".
That's the only thing I can think of at the moment.

"Urgent" by Foreigner?

"Blue Jean" by David Bowie?

"Look At Little Sister" by Stevie Ray Vaughan?

Well - if it's DC101 its going to be from late 80s till now... more now than late 80s. In fact, the only 80s they play are U2, and some GnR and Metallica.

For my guess: The Ataries "Boys of Summer".

so what are the clues again.  sax in there somewhere. rock.  a guy.  jackson.

not a lot to narrow it down.

maybe Jackson Browne for the singer.

Maybe its "Saturday Night" by the Bay City Rollers?  :D


How about Bob Seegers "Turn the Page", its got a sax and its a great song.


good luck on your search

How about Bob Segers "Turn the Page", has a slow beat and a pretty good Sax riff about 1/2 way through the song..

You guys are way off, DC101 has... well Dave Matthews Band, Live, U2, White Stripes, Limp Bizket and other pop bands... to name a few.

If you don't know who the above are, then its a high probability that your advice is out of category.

Not to be harsh, but... well... DC101 is pretty much a 90s pop rock station.
