chanman1128 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Okay, so after endless searches through pandora, last.fm, and various search engines, I am in no luck. I have done this a few times here before, and you guys usually have a knack for knowing what songs I am talking about, but this one might be a reach... I heard it on the radio and it sounds just like regina spektor (to me anyways)...from what I remember: the beginning is acapella.the chorus or the bridge contains the word jesus.it sounds just like regina spektor.I THINK it is just vocals and a piano, if it isnt just a piano i know that there aren't a lot of other instruments. I am really sorry but this is all i got, one other thing that might help is that I think she says one phrase a lot, but I can't even remember the lyrics at all, except for the word jesus. Maybe something about a book....not sure. Sorry for starting a new topic on this, but i am desperate, i dont know why I liked this song so much... THANKS EVERYONE for taking the time to read this and (hopefully) knowing what the hell i am talking about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 The new Regina Spektor song is "Laughing With" which is here: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=58073111 there are lots of lines about God in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanman1128 Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 Nope, that is not it... I actually listened to laughing with and it was pretty lame, not a fan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moss Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 poor chanman I tried but I got nothing. Any other clues? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanman1128 Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 haha thanks for trying!! It started off just kind of wanting to know what song it was, and now that I can't find out, I NEED TO KNOW! It is killing me, when I heard it on the radio, I said to myself, "I am going to remember these lyrics"...great try chanman It sounded like it would be pretty popular, but I got nothing. I'm pretty sure it is contemporary... it might be an obscure indie girl, but I just don't know, if any of you guys find anything, let me know... thanks again for trying...

Guest Hollinger. Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Diane Birch - Nothing But A Miracle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanman1128 Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 nah it isnt that one either...i feel really bad...not nearly enough info for you guys to figure it out...sorry. If you guys hear anything in passing that could be it, let me know! More observations:it sounds A LOT more like regina spektor than that diana birch song.Also, when I listened to it the first time I was almost surprised to hear the mention of jesus, i dont think it is an extremely religious song...but again, i cant remember any of the damn lyrics.
