I did some touch up work in Audacity to make it louder and remove the random popping even though I was being perfectly still. 2:40 of the song, enjoy!

Nothing loads up for me.
EDIT: Nevermind

Still not sounding familiar though  :sad:

Taking a while for me too. Is that Soundcloud, or did I screw up somewhere?

Also, for the reddit users, where is a good place to ask a question like this? I tried Tipofmytongue but is there another that applies more since this isn't really on the tip of my tongue, but rather I just don't know.

No luck so far.  I think I've made out most of the lyrics, though.  Starting at the beginning of the Soundcloud clip:

"Will your heart still shine a light
if you're touching me tonight?

So much passion in this life of mine
but I can't keep it when you're gone
More confusion living down the line
makes it harder living on

Can we make it to that open sky?
We could reach it if we tried
If you're touching me tonight
and our love just feels so right

Will your heart still shine a light
if you're touching me tonight?"

Some of that's probably wrong, but I think it's basically accurate.
Sincerely,
Jaffa

It's a shame we'll probably never find out what this is. I really wanted to know too, after all of this. :-[

Wow, this song is actually really fucking great.  Why can't we find this?  ???

I think it's pretty safe to say that after doing some more searching, the internet doesn't think this song exists.  Very, very odd.

It must be from a library then, and not an actual release. Wow. Zook, you defeated Google. BE PROUD MAN.

Broke [N] Blue - Touching Me (Tonight) from the album Northern Light. It's on Spotify.

Just took a bit of Google Fu to find it :)

Really good song!

Edit: "Well bend me over twice with a forklift" they're actually from Sweden. Should have known, we have a pretty big following for AoR and Westcoast rock in Sweden.

solid 80's AOR track.  Glad the mystery was solved.

 :rollin Haha. Made on Cool Page by the looks of it or something.

Ah - memories. It would be funny if someone did a site like that today as an homage.

I was almost expecting some MIDI to start playing and no way to turn it off. :lol

I had looked at that page earlier and thought how ancient it looked, but this thought had not occurred to me.  Now that you mention it, I'm also kinda surprised there was no unmutable midi file playing.  :lol

Well...Fuck.

The mistake I was making was trying to find the lyrics online. If I'd tried to guess the name of the song, and eventually gotten it right, the song pops up multiple times on the first page of results. :facepalm:

In the end it was just: "touching me tonight" lyrics

Third page along gave this result:

RockUnited.Com Archived Reviews - B4
www.rockunited.com/archive_b4.htm‎
"Touching me tonight" is a marvelous mid-tempo ballad a-la Bryan Adams meets ...

Which sounded about right. Following the link gave me the band and song to look up on Spotify. Had Spotify not delivered I'd have tried Grooveshark and after that I'd have been a bit stymied.

I was just trying to reduce the lyrics to an identifiable phrase that wouldn't throw up a huge number of results, was likely to be related to the song title and was least likely to be prone to spelling/grammar errors.

Just did a search, and on the second page someone also asked about the song, but the question was deleted.

The title track is the third mystery song! :lol

I don't remember the "Fry's version" having drums though.

Thanks everyone who helped search for the band, and Cruithne, I love you. :heart

I'm sure I've got a compilation cd with a song from these guys on it. Certainly didn't recognise it- from the original clip you played I thought it was a female singer  :biggrin:

It is a female singer... But there is a male singer too on the CD.
