please help me identify a song?
« on: February 09, 2007, 05:22:44 PM »
The lite rock station has no playlist on their website, so I'm stumped as to what song I heard. Would anyone mind helping me?

It was sung by a male, solo, in a live performance. It was slow and meditative.

It began with something like, "Sometimes I awaken" and it went on with him waking up thinking of a woman he would never see again, sometimes hearing her words as a whisper on the air and he'd try to go back to sleep just to keep hearing that near-whisper of the thing she'd told him.

I think every verse began with "sometimes" for what it's worth. (iTunes comes up with 150 songs titled "sometimes," by the way.)

I've written the radio station asking for a song identification, but based on past experiences, I'd have better luck screaming my question into a conch shell.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help...

*falls on the floor laughing* Oh man that was funny!  I can't wait to read your book!

I wish I could help, but it almost MAYBE sounds familiar...

710 "Sometimes"-beginning songs on allmusic.com.  I'm going to try my hand at iTunes and see what happens...  I can limit it there by genre at least, and anyting with "explicit" is an obvious no.

Go to google, type lyrics + any line of the song.  Thats how I find songs.
"POCKETS!"  From the new Dr. Who, "Runaway Bride" extra geek points if you laugh.
