    Default SOLVED: Please Help with Ballad type of song

    A real problem with this one is that I don't know much about this song at all. It sounds like something that can be sung by someone like Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears.

    OK, I think there is a part that the female says something that sounds like "together, happily forever". I can't really recall what was said, but if it isn't together or forever, then it could be words that rhyme while also containing 3 syllables. The 1st word is used at the end of a line (where together would be in this case), and after a short pause the person sings the next two words (where happily forever would be).

    The singer sings in a gentle manner during the verses, which is also where those three words are. After the verse comes a part right before the refrain. The female still is singing in that same gentle manner, but it may be another female as well singing gently with her. Then shortly after is the refrain. The singer sounds more aggressive compared to earlier.

    Now I still have a hunch that one of the two sang this song. I would say somewhere between the mid-late 90's to the early 00's is when this song came out, more than likely the earlier period. If I can figure out more I will try to post more.

    I can be wrong, but are you sure it was only one singer there?

    I would think that it is one female singer, but yes I can be wrong on that. If you have any ideas, I'm open to anything.

    I found the song. It's funny I definitely kept in mind about what HIM posted. I opend up my options and started to think about possible artists. I tried playing various different songs in my head to try to match the singers voice. I came up with No Doubt's It's My Life. Gwen Stefani sounded close to what I remember and it turns out that it was No Doubt - Don't Speak

    NO DOUBT LYRICS


    "Don't Speak"


    You and me
    We used to be together
    Everyday together always
    I really feel
    That I'm losing my best friend
    I can't believe
    This could be the end
    It looks as though you're letting go
    And if it's real
    Well I don't want to know

    Don't speak
    I know just what you're saying
    So please stop explaining
    Don't tell me cause it hurts
    Don't speak
    I know what you're thinking
    I don't need your reasons
    Don't tell me cause it hurts

    Our memories
    Well, they can be inviting
    But some are altogether
    Mighty frightening
    As we die, both you and I
    With my head in my hands
    I sit and cry

    Don't speak
    I know just what you're saying
    So please stop explaining
    Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
    Don't speak
    I know what you're thinking
    I don't need your reasons
    Don't tell me cause it hurts

    It's all ending
    I gotta stop pretending who we are...
    You and me I can see us dying...are we?

    Don't speak
    I know just what you're saying
    So please stop explaining
    Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
    Don't speak
    I know what you're thinking
    I don't need your reasons
    Don't tell me cause it hurts
    Don't tell me cause it hurts!
    I know what you're saying
    So please stop explaining

    Don't speak,
    don't speak,
    don't speak,
    oh I know what you're thinking
    And I don't need your reasons
    I know you're good,
    I know you're good,
    I know you're real good
    Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
    Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darlin'
    Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush
    don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
    Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush darlin'
    Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
