Hi all. Spent hours trying to ID a song I hadn't heard in forever but which I love. '90s dream pop? Only caught tail end. Recurring (I'm pretty sure) words are something like "Am I losing my mind". Female singer, at least this part. To hear the melody of what I think is the chorus, cut and paste what's in between the dashes - c''4 c''4 f''4 e''4 c''4 c''4. ais'4. c''4 c''4 f''4 e''4 c''4 c''4 - at www.musipedia.org/js_piano.html#x Thought it might be the Cocteau Twins, but it's not that ethereal. Maybe indie pop? Maybe '80s? Thanks for any help you can give. And yes, I'm losing my mind.

"Losing My Mind" is a song written by Stephen Sondheim for the 1971 musical "Follies" and it has been covered by many artists
Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title -
Thanks. Yeah, I did see that, but that's not it. I think I most likely have the words wrong. But the syllables match the melody and what I think I heard in a cafe in the afternoon. I searched for "Am I/are we/are you", and added "just" and "still", and then "wasting my/our time", "reading my mind". The song was so familiar when I heard it that I thought I'd have no problem finding it, but it's been such a challenge and of course I can't remember more than what I put here. The melody is pretty right-on, but that's about it for now. I think I'll have to resort to listening to dream-pop playlists.
