    Default British guy talks over music about what he's doing

    Hiya,

    I know this is incredibly vague, but it's all I have to describe the song I'm looking for. I'm looking for a song that isn't parklife or the sunscreen song in which a british guy talks about walking up, coming downstairs, eventually heading out...

    I think he briefly mentions his mum at one point, but I may be wrong. If anyone knows of any song that could remotely fit this bill I'd be very appreciative!

    Incredibly vague???? how about almost impossibly vague.... it would help if we knew the commerical and a background music similarity

    Hi James,

    You're right, it is impossibly vague. Unfortunately it's something I only barely remember and am at a loss to find. I don't remember the background music at all, only that he sounds about thirty. I think I'm going to have to give up on this one. I guess I was hoping that anyone who had ever heard a song with a guy talking might list it in the hope it was the right one.

    Hi Steve, what year do you think it might be from?

    Something by The Streets?

    Hi jp,

    I'm pretty sure it's earlier than the streets. Plus his accent is different (sort of like Richard E Grant but a bit deeper), thank you for suggesting though.

    Mixalopoulous,

    I'm tempted to say somewhere between ten and thirty years old? Probably much closer to the ten.

    OK Steve, just for elimination:

    Hi Mixa,

    Unfortunately it's not Ramblin' Man. As I recall, the song I'm trying to find is a monologue.
