If anyone gets it then they are a genius! Can’t remember any lyrics or who it’s by but it’s a female singer, very similar vibes to moonlight shadow by Mike oldfield. Maybe about a failed relationship but I can’t remember. So basically I’m asking what songs are like moonlight shadow 😂
the longest shot ever I know…

’I want to be with you everywhere’
I think it’s Fleetwood Mac. I used to get it confused with ‘Moonlight Shadow’
I don’t know why 🤷‍♀️😊

I’d never heard the moonlight shadow song and just had a listen - the first 10 seconds reminds me of Madonna ‘dear jessie’

I was going to say the same. Even though the OP said it’s not Fleetwood Mac, it’s the closest thing I can think of.

Answer was

Found it! Its a Man In The Rain by Mike Oldfield

If you can remember even a few words, google it! I did this recently with a song I'd heard only a few words of and found it! (Fall into you if anyone's interested)

Stevie Nicks, for the Fleetwood vibe?

NaughtybutNice77 · 31/12/2023 21:56

So 80s and a bit folkie. Is it an upbeat melody like MS or more meloncholy/reflective?
I'm thinking January February by Barbara Dixon but maybe coz you're remembering it now I have the proper folkie "All around my hat I will wear the green willow".
I've also got Day Trip to Bangor.
Was it more folk or more pop?
