I am losing my sanity over having to know this song, really frustrating.
Looking at a famous song, probably done in the 1980's (could be earlier or later). If my memory is to be trusted, it is a black singer/reggae style song. (could be wrong)
It is probably famous for its "Daaaaay Oooo, Oh Daaaaay Ooo" (as it is the only main bit I remember) in its chorus, then it cuts to some lyrics with a beat I will try to replicate with "ba da ba ba, da ba ba da". One of the words in this part might be 'home'. (or might not be)
I would have thought google would have hit it pretty easy, unfortunately, it seems totally vacant.
Songs it is not:
The Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian
Baltimora - Tarzan boy
Naughty By Nature - Hip Hop Hooray
