| If it's the same as the one I heard last night, it's a joint effort record by
808 state and some other guy who I've never heard of before. It was called
`the only rap that bites' or something like that. I liked the Bonanza bits!

HI MATTY,
Life is a lot better after CRA... Looks like I could be moving on
again soon hopefully !!. You've moved away from DAS now haven't
you ? Up North with Mark Collins I believe.
Anyway thanks alot for the name of the artist...I'm straight off
into town to try and buy it now.
Cheers
Jon

| 700.8 | Somebody out there.....HELP! | KIRKTN::JADAMS | | Mon Aug 09 1993 11:46 | 19 |

This looked like an appropriate place, can someone please help me
out here?
I can't get this tune out of my head and I don't know what it's
called, where it's used, not a lot at all really.
It goes... "Paaaaah, paaaaah, paaaaah,
pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, pa-pa-pa-pa-pa,
paaah, paaah, paaah,
pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, pa-pa-pa-pa-pa,
paaah, paaah, paaah,
pa-pa and so on
...and conjures up visions of an open top sports car driving around
the cliffy areas around the south of France, or maybe it's an advert
that's been on TV, or maybe something from the Italian Job. Like I say
this is driving me nuts (has been bouncing about in my head for about
3-4 months now), please HELP!

Sounds like 'Happy Together' by the Turtles release circa 69/70. The
opening goes....
Baby, you and me and me and you
No matter how they tossed the dice it had to be
The only was was me for you and you for me so happy together...
The 'pa pa pa' bit is a chorus sung halfway through without words as
such.

| After half the Warrington CSC spent most of the day humming it, we came
up with a couple of alternatives;
Reward - Teardrop explodes (couldn't picture the car in France though,
only a jeep racing round docklands)
Strangers in the night.... no comment
and finally.........
'Un homme, une femme' from the Italian Job.
Ian Turner's mum has the sheet music................

| It's not that dodgy old song by Cream, "I feel free", or whatever it's
called?
Chris.

'Un homme et une femme' from the Italian Job? I thought this was from the
French film of the same name (Un Homme et Une Femme) which was a big
hit (as 'A Man and a Woman') for someone's orchestra in the early 60s
(Percy Faith?)
Richard
The Turtles number has one less 'pa' in it!

| 700.13 | Peter Clarks Carparts Camelon | PAKORA::SWRIGHT | | Tue Aug 10 1993 15:31 | 5 |
| Sound like Pearl and Dean...you know the one they used to play before
the adverts came on at the Cinema...... NOT..!!

I recognise the tune now...
But I don't know what its called either. Its one of those 60's tunes
you might expect to hear in a lift at Selfridges. Along the lines of
"Music to watch girls by" (but thats not it).
Possibly Herp Alpert and his Tijuana Brass.

| I actually thought it was Music to Watch Girls By, but I didn't like to
mention it in a family conference. I always preferred the Higsons'
cover, anyway. More "pah" in the trumpets.

| 700.17 | | SUBURB::TUDORK | Welcome_to_the_Jungle | Sun Aug 15 1993 23:11 | 7 |
| Sounds to me like "Jessica" by the Allman Brothers (theme music from
Top Gear).
Lets face it we don't have a lot to go on...:-)

| 700.18 | mystery song... | UPROAR::PLOWMAND | everything you know is wrong | Mon Nov 29 1993 15:50 | 12 |
| I caught a great song on Danny Baker on Sunday and I meant to write
down what it was, but of course, in true anti-DJ style, he never tells
you what you've been listening to!
It's a female vocalist, and the words were along the lines of:
"I can't believe I have fallen for you". "You're my dream coming true"
Very corny I know but I liked it!.
Any ideas? I think it was quite recent.
Thanks, Debs.
