    Default Help... 80s song.

    So I have a song in my head, and I can hum the tune... but can't remember the lyrics. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a top ten single or anything. It's very fun and peppy (Caribbean sounding?) and probably sound by a British group. I've heard it on some alternative/new wave radio programs, and the last time I heard it was on AOL radio (probably the new wave station) a month or so ago.

    I realize this isn't much help at all... I wish you could hear me hum it!

    Thanks!

    These 2 songs are about as far apart as any 2 things can be. Is there any similarity to either one in what you recall? When you mention "Caribbean", is it because you hear steel drums or just that whole Caribbean sound? Here's the two: "Macarena" by Los Del Rio and "Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot" by Buster Poindexter.

    Thanks for the help, I forgot to include that it sounded Culture Club-ish. Anyways, I finally figured it out by going through lists on Wikipedia hoping to jog my memory.

    It's "Oblivious" by Aztec Camera... upon listening it's not quite Caribbean, just has that bright fun sound.

    I'm glad you found it, posted it, and that I was soooo close to solving it!
