mellow track from the 90s? female singer. "dooo doo dooooo do do do.... dooo doo doo"

*SOLVED*

i'm looking for a song but can't recall any of the real lyrics - just the chorus the goes "doooo doo doo dooo doo do do.... dooooo dooo doooooo do do do"

it's a mellow track, kinda portishead influenced, from the 90s. i've heard it in a commercial a long time ago. not sure if it was for a fragrance or car commercial. and it's NOT tom's diner by suzanne vega - in fact it's way different than that. much slower and a relaxed beat.

i was able to memorize the way the chorus went in my head and can whistle it. as funny as it is, here is a link where i am whistling how it goes. hope this helps

whoever can identify this song should seriously get a trophy or something. i have a feeling the artist is probably french or english. i'm not so sure if it's an "american" song but the song is in 100% english i'll tell you that




*SOLVED* it's called life in mono by mono

also there is a guitar strumming in the background with "medieval" sounding chords..... i think there might be a piano in there too

that's not it but you get the idea. funny thing is they played this song at the same place they played the one im looking for minutes before....

I couldn't open the link you posted. So I tried Claybricks since you said

Their's reminded me of this one;

Angelic Voices - B-Tribe

They used it in a chocolate commercial a few years ago.

thanks, i appreciate it. unfortunately this isn't it either.... i think i'm going to have a tough time pinpointing this song. funny thing is, it's not a song that is unknown but at the same time, it's not too popular. i think i might have even heard it in a movie... just can't recall exactly which one. it definitely is a song from the 90s though.

Hi,

Just putting these out there:

Morcheeba - Blindfold

Morcheeba - Rome Wasn't Built In A Day

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fmog...1&feature=plcp

none of these either :-(

though you guys are getting the idea. the sound of these songs is similar and the vocals are close. if I find the title out, I'll make sure to post it here also

i noticed that someone else was looking for this same song back in 2009. i'm 80% sure that this is the same song that they were looking for. sadly, they never got the title either...

I remember that thread. I've been looking for that song ever since I tried to help find it for justagirl5. A few months ago, I came across a song that sounded promising. Is this your song?

nope not it either, but i like this song too. it's a lot slower paced than this. thanks though!

I found a song that sounds like your whistling sample. However, the song does not match your description. Have a listen:

"It's A Fine Day" by OpusIII

thanks for taking the time to listen to it, although this isn't it either

i whistled the way the girl sings the "doo do doo do" part

i've been looking all over google and have yet to find anything (a bit hard when you don't know the lyrics of the song and only the chorus); though i have come across other people trying to find the same song - this person included:

I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT'S CALLED LIFE IN MONO BY MONO

IT'S ON THE SOUNDTRACK FOR THE MOVIE "GREAT EXPECTATIONS"

thanks for all the help everyone

OMG. I've been searching for THIS SONG for about 12 YEARS!

The song is super hard to identify remembering only the chorus, to the point I already gave up.


To the thread op, you indeed should get a trophy or something.
Thanks a lot mate.
