    Default Solved: Need Help Identifying This 80s Song

    This is an 80s song I have on cassette, but I don't know the artist or title. The lyrics are something like:

    Hey you with the curly hair
    Hey you with the eyes so gray
    Time for you is always spare
    Tell me what have you done today

    One day like any other
    Do what you want
    But you want something better
    All the morning change with the bedclothes
    Saving time you must wait its the time that you were born

    Switch on electrons to the screen
    Switch off your mind to the icy world
    Beg to make yourself be clean
    Wait for the warmth that is your girl

    One day like any other
    Do what you want
    But you want something better
    All the morning change with the bedclothes
    Saving time you must wait its the time that you were born

    All eyes Living life of fun
    All eyes gazing into space
    Lay the hand in idle hands
    Smile on never on your face

    One day like any other
    Do what you want
    But you want something better
    All the morning change with the bedclothes
    Saving time you must wait its the time that you were born

    Hey you with the curly hair
    Hey you with the eyes so gray
    Time for you is always spare
    Tell me what have you done today

    You'd think this would be easy to find, but so far no luck. Thanks for the help.

    Try the following songs:

    "A Day Like Any Other" by Jad Fair

    "Day Like Any Other" by Modern Man
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    Default Good Try, But No

    It is not either of those.

    Default Shazam Fail

    With regard to the original song, attempting to tag this with Shazam failed to find a match. That was disappointing.

    Sorry about that hijacker. Any chance you can post a sound clip?

    Default Here you go! Still unknown.

    Here you go bugmenot. I finally was able to get this converted to .mp3. It is too large to upload here (97K limit). I have uploaded it to Rapidshare here:

    http://rapidshare.com/files/296112332/unknown.zip.html

    It can be downloaded 10 times over 90 days. If this expires and you want it, please post here and I will repost it again (at least until it is identified.)

    That is APB - One Day
    होता है जो होना है ... वक़्त ही शायद खुदा है ...

    Default Confirmed

    Steena Rocks.

    When I saw APB initially, I figured that it was correct, because I remembered other songs by them. I just received a copy of "Something to Believe in" (their album) and this is definitely the correct song. Thanks to Steena and everyone else on this. I appreciate the help.
