    Default Help with 3 songs plz(#3 solved)

    I work at walmart and a lot of random songs are played and some are pretty good but also obscure and sometimes it's difficult to decipher the lyrics.

    Song#1 - I had a techno compilation tape around 1994 that had this song on it. It was English and would end each verse with "You liked it."
    It also had some lyrics about water, maybe swimming under water.

    Song#2 - I heard this at walmart maybe two years ago. It has a female voice that I think is French. It sounded like a 60s show toon but was hard to tell what she was saying. All I remember is that the final verse seemed to go on forever, like 2 min, so the song was pretty long. Also maybe the word "move or moving" was in there somewhere.

    Song#3 - I heard this recently. It was a female pop singer. The song was pop but was a little sullen, like in flat key if that makes sense. The only lyric I remember was "nothing I would change". Maybe it was "There's nothing about you I would change, nothing I would change"

    all clues/guesses are welcome.

    An update to song #3. It played again this evening, while I was working and unfortunately I was in the middle of something so couldn't sit down and write out the lyrics. The catch phrase that was most common was "I'd do anything for you, anything for you". Anything for you seems to get repeated a lot. Maybe the phrase with "change" was off, idk but I'm certain about this new phrase. And I did get one word "ground", which was at the end of a verse and rhymed with something else.

    I stand by my comments for the other 2 songs. I think there's enough there to identify them if you heard the song before. I'm guessing song #3 is more recent, maybe in the last 5 years. It has a similar rhythm to "hey there delilah".

    Yes, that's it! ty

    Song#2 is just really obscure. I've never heard it other than a few years ago when I worked the night shift.
    Song#1 is an English accent and the phrase "you liked it" is used a lot, so would be fairly obvious but, again, maybe a little unknown.

    After two years and transferring to a new store, song #2 returned. Again, I was too busy write out the lyrics but I heard something like "Yes, sir, I can move", turned out to be the hit 70s song "Yes, sir, I can boogie" by Baccara. A very popular song at the time, It was unknown to me until now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGuFn0RPgaE.

    That leaves song #1. Here's what I posted originally.

    Song#1 - I had a techno compilation tape around 1994 that had this song on it. It was English and would end each verse with "You liked it." It also had some lyrics about water, maybe swimming under water.

    If you heard the song and matched up the comments, it would be obvious but, I think this may be the most obscure of the three.

    I would recommend people read the thread before posting suggestions. Song #1 still eludes me. If you heard the song, it would be obvious. Clearly it's rare/unknown to most and maybe seldom heard on US radio.
