Hello! I don't know could anybody help me, but I am searching for one song past 16 years without succes...
Now, it would be easy if I know the words, or who is performer, but I have only 8 years, and I wasn't understand english at that time....
I am preety sure that I will recognize song when I hear it...
So, only help I can give to You all, is that song is ballad, it start with a sax, and I think that first word was baby. Men singing, and voice is like Toto, or Nick Kershaw...
If anybody can help, thanx

Posted by JCWBobC (Member # 2525) on :
I used to like Nick Kershaw a lot & didn't think anyone else knew who he was but yeah you need to give us something to work with for us to be able to help you.

Really I don't remember anything else... Maybe, I remember rhythm, I heard one song before, which have similar instrumental begining, I will find the name of this song, maybe it will help... Maybe the start of the song is (baby, sorry, baby,you....)
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Update:
Begining instrumental of the song i similar as: MEN AT WORK-Overkill
Hope this will help a bit.
Thanx!!!

Maybe Glenn Frey "You Belong To The City"?
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
quote: Maybe Glenn Frey "You Belong To The City"?
This is very similar too... (Anyway, thanx for the great song), but that one I am searching for is ballad, instrumental begining is preety same to this two, and I think that first word was "baby"...
Thanx!!!
Posted by logan5 (Member # 1467) on :
It doesn't have a sax intro, but 'Overkill' begins a little like Journey's 'Send Her My Love'.
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Thanx logan, but this is also just similar...
Really don't know how to find more clues... Anybody know some song which started with baby like "I can die on Your arms tonight"?
Thanx!!!

Devolution here,
I need a bit more. Some lyrics, maybe a group. "I just died in your arms tonight" I don't know, I don't know of any songs that sound like that. Or maybe I'm not thinking enough.
We are DEVO
Posted by Alex In Wonderland (Member # 4912) on :
"I just died in your arms tonight" was by Cutting Crew - but not sure about the sax reference though.
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
No, there is not sax in the "I just died in your arms tonight" by Cutting Crew...
I just get an idea. I think that I recorded myself singing that song on tape, I wil transform it to mp3, and upload somewhere, maybe someone will recognize it.

How about Broken Wings by Mister Mister?

Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in Take these broken wings
Baby I think tonight We can take what was wrong To make it right
Baby it's all I know That you're half of the flesh And blood makes me whole Need you so
Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in Take these broken wings You got to learn to fly And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing
Let us in Let us in
Baby it's all I know That you're half of the flesh And blood makes me whole Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah so
Take these broken wings And learn to fly again And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in Take these broken wings You got to learn to fly And learn to live so free And when we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up And let us in
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
I actually think about Broken wings when I say "I just died in Your arms tonight"
Sorry.
Thanx for help Paul!
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Just to bump, still looking for this song, so if anybody have fresh idea, please post here. Intro is also similar to Europe-Carrie Thanx!!!
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
Though not 80's... Curtis Stigers maybe with 'I Wonder Why'???
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
Um... Europe's Carrie doesn't start with a sax intro right? Cause now it might just as well be 'Babe' from Styx. It starts with the word babe and the intro is sort of the same as in Carrie.
Do you remember if it was a long/short instrumental intro?
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Thanx for answer, but neither one is I am looking for. Yes, there is no sax in the Carrie, but this one have sax on start (I am pretty sure), but rhythm (like Carrie begining, but with sax) is similar to Carrie. Athmosphere in song is similar to Styx, but I can't remember words, but I think first one was "Baby".
I can try to give You idea, and try to write some parts of lyrics (even they would be unclear), but at that time I don't know english, and not even understand words, but I will try:
Baby, sorry baby, You started again, Is there somebody new, is there someobody (unknown text) Only for You, (unknown text) (Unknown text)
[Chorus] What to (or what would)... What to (unknown text)... You have to remember, I'll always be, What to (or what would)... (same as in first line of chorus)
Thanx for help guys, but these are not song I am looking for. (but these are great songs, too). I don't have more ideas, how to help You identify the song, so all info I can give is on my previous post.
Thanx!!!
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
I’m also running out of idea’s zivija. The following songs also have a sax intro, but unfortunately don’t match with the lyrics you provided. I'll keep thinking. Maybe it's a song from the 90's?
I recorded it to tape in 1989, at latest 1990. These are great songs too, but not the one I am looking for Really, I don't have any idea what song can it be, but I never heard it from that time...
Posted by bandit (Member # 6296) on :
No chance to retrieve that old tape?The tune sure sounds very familiar to me,and i have been googling around a lot tonight.No luck however..Hope you find out.
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
No, tape was re-recorded, and I lost this song after few listening....
Thanx for trying!
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Did you record it from the radio in 1989 or 1990?
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Yes, I recorded it from the radio, it could be from 1988. to 1990. not later.
Thanx!!!
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
Still the song might as well be from long before 1988. The only thing we know for sure is that it hasn’t been recorded after 1991. What’s weird is that you haven’t heard it again ever since. So it probably wasn’t a big hit.
Here’s another not so well known ballad from 1990 with sax intro:
Again the lyrics don't match though...
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Yes, the song may be older, but I think it was not older than 80's. Maybe this song was not so popular, but it is pretty similar to this great songs You find. Some of them I never heard before.
Thanx!!!

Zivija, I spent all evening looking for that song of yours, but couldn’t find it. Very frustrating… It all sounds so familiar and yet I have not the slightest idea who it might be. Have you tried exploring Richard Marx's repertoire yet? He also had a couple of ballads in the late 80's.
If you should ever find it, it would be nice to let us know. Best of luck!
P.S. In the meantime I keep my ears wide open. Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Thanx TKO, I will try to explore Richard Marx. By the way, all this songs have similar atmosphere like this one I am searching for. Of course, if I ever find it, I will let You know.
Here is me singing it when I was a kid, I ripped this from the tape. Probably, You will not understand words (I don't know english at that time), but maybe someone will recognize rhythm, and some words: http://www.sendspace.com/file/oc0sda
Thanx!!!

I wasn't able to listen to this thread, but my guesses are: * Never Tear Us Apart - INXS * Careless Whisper - George Michael * Hungry Eyes - Eric carmen (Noy even sure if there is sax) * Nothing's gonna change My Love for You - Glen Medeiros
Likely not any of these, But I had to try. good luck.
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
This might be it zivija. I hope so, cause now your quest is becoming an obsession for me also, haha.
No sax though, but check out those lyrics…
Chicago - Niagara Falls
Baby, so you think you can start again? You got somebody new, But the same thing keeps happening. At the moment of truth, Whoever you're loving, You will be thinking of me.
CHORUS: As long as Niagara falls, As long as Gibraltar stands, Till hell freezes over I'll always be your man.
Tell me, when you're there lying by his side. Do you make him believe all your needs have been satisfied? Does he know that your heart is taken forever? Girl, you will always be mine.
CHORUS
Time can't erase What you feel in your heart You can't replace the love No, it doesn't matter how hard you try. Girl, you're gonna miss my loving till the day you die.
Till hell freezes over
CHORUS
Alternate Chorus: As long as Niagara falls, Until the end of time, Till hell freezes over, You are forever mine
CHORUS

TKO, be sure there is no words to say thank You, THAT IS IT!!!! I know it at the moment I saw lyrics. Somehow, I thought there is sax on the begining, and that song is little slower, but no dubt, that's it.
So now, after almost 20 years of searching, thanx to You the result is finally here.
Thanx to all You people trying to help me, be sure it is highly appreciated. Thanx to this site, and great community!
Thanx!!!!!
Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on :
You’re more than welcome. It’s a good song by the way.
Stick around!
Posted by bandit (Member # 6296) on :
Well done TKO I have a few albums of Chicago and should really know this Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
That is a great song. I love Chicago. The problem with me and lyrics is, I am usually listening to the music itself more than the words....especially the guitar parts. It's a habit of mine because I play guitar.
Posted by zivija (Member # 5018) on :
Hello!
After successfully found song I searched for (thanx to all of You), I transfered some instrumentals from Audio tapes, and I need help to identify them. All I know, that one of these is Jan Hammer, but I can't find name of the instrumental.
Thanx a lot!!!
Posted by logan5 (Member # 1467) on :
Amazing! I've been holding your drink here for two years! You said you'd be back in five minutes!
All I know is this:
'Sound 2' is a dance medley with (from what I could pick up) 'Baker Street' / 'Ruby Tuesday' / 'Don't You Want Me' / 'Paint it Black' / 'Layla'.
